WHAT CAUSES UPPER BACK PAIN?

There are many potential sources of upper back pain. In my professional experience, the three most-common causes of thoracic spine pain are joint inflammation, rib dysfunction, and muscle strain/knots. Again – there are many more potential causes than this, but these are the three that I encounter the most often in my physical therapy clinic. Fortunately, there’s a lot that the right stretches and strengthening exercises can do to alleviate your pain and symptoms in your upper back.

STABILITY VS MOBILITY

When we are talking about joints of the body (and especially joints of the spine) there’s one key principle that often dictates rehabilitation: Stability vs Mobility. Your spine is a column of vertebrae stacked one on top of the other – it needs to be a stable structure to support your body. However, that column is also designed to bend and rotate (providing us movement) and therefore needs to be a mobile structure, as well.

The key to helping alleviate pain in this area in your upper back is often found in discovering the right balance for your body between stability and mobility. If you find your back is very stiff and doesn’t move very well (too much stability and not enough mobility) then your best treatment options should include stretching, foam rolling, and other joint mobilization techniques.

If, on the other hand, your back is very loose, flexible, and mobile, then you will most likely benefit from exercises focusing on stability (a.k.a. strength) versus stretching. A strong muscle is a tight muscle – the stronger your muscles in a given area the better the stability of that area.

BEST STRETCHES AND MOBILIZATIONS FOR THORACIC SPINE PAIN (please see video for full demonstration of each)

Thoracic Spine Rotation Stretch – One of my favorite stretches to introduce motion into the thoracic spine. Keep in mind – the higher you bring your knees the more you’ll feel this stretch.

Chair Extension Mobilization – Go up and down your thoracic spine to mobilize each segment; don’t be surprised if you get a few pain-alleviating “pops” along the way.

Foam Roller – Needs to be done the right way! Don’t hold your head suspended but rather let it mobilize your back.

BEST STRENGTHENING EXERCISES FOR YOUR UPPER BACK

Band Rows (bilateral and unilateral) – Bilateral to increase strength/stability; unilateral is a way that you can actually include some functional strengthening over motion with it.

Wall Angels – Strength and endurance are key! Remember the points of contact and try strengthening over this really good posture.

Prone W’s – Remember to get your chest up off the floor (extend through your back) and get your elbows behind you (drawing your shoulder blades closer together)

Upper back pain is a common problem for a lot of people, but it absolutely doesn’t have to be! Being in tune with your body and understanding the principles provided in this video (stretch where it’s tight; strengthen where it’s weak) are key to alleviating your pain and helping you to feel better.

7 Best Treatments to Prevent Leg Pain & Fatigue in Runners – Ask Doctor Jo

pain No Comments »

Leg pain, soreness, and fatigue is a common problem for runners as well as people who stand for long periods of time. These simple treatments should help. Purchase the MD Calf Sleeves featured in this video: https://www.askdoctorjo.com/leg-fatigue-runners

One great way to prevent fatigue and tightness is by wearing calf sleeves. The folks at MD sent me their compression calf sleeves. These help prevent shin splints and calf pain as well as fatigue by providing compression in the calves to help improve circulation. The sleeves come in various sizes and colors and are great for runners and other athletes as well as people who stand all day at work.

Spine-worx Back Alignment Board, Managing Back Pain at Home

human body No Comments »

http://www.amazon.com/dp/product/B000F8UBG0/?&tag=g07de-20
I’ve had back pain for most of my adult life. To manage the pain, I found the Spine-Worx Alignment Board. My pain is from a subluxation, an occasional slipped rib, and sciatica. Using the board couldn’t be easier, but does take some getting used to:

-Place the board on the floor, or on a yoga mat if you have hardwood flooring
-The board is marked at the bottom where your lower back goes
-Sit on the floor so your butt is close to the bottom of the board
-Slowly lower yourself down onto the board ensuring that your spine is between the yellow rubber cushions
-You will probably need to place a pillow at the top for your head, and maybe one under your butt until you get used to the curvature
-If the yellow cushion is to hard, you may also want to wear a thick sweatshirt to add extra cushion for your spine
-Start by only laying on the board for 30 seconds or less if it is uncomfortable
-Work your way up to longer sessions of 10 minutes or so
-Roll over and pull the board out and remain laying on the floor for a few minutes before standing up

Causes & management of unilateral leg pain occuring during sleep – Dr. Sanjay Panicker

pain No Comments »

Unilateral leg pain can happen in some conditions like diabetes where the nerves are affected. It can also be seen in conditions where the nerves are directly affected, nerves which move down from the spinal cord to the lungs. So any compression or irritation to the nerve at any point can cause a pain in the leg on that particular side. In children it is very common to see the leg pain because of the growth of the bones. It can be unilateral or bilateral. In menopause women do complain of unilateral leg pain. Any condition affecting the artery or the vein where the circulation is affected then that can cause leg pain. If the veins are not able to take the blood across it because of a clot or because it is dilated too much as in varicose veins then that also can cause unilateral leg pains.
