You're not alone - millions of people are suffering from all types of job injuries ranging from the stress of working in a bad position to improper lifting or carrying, to falls and other trauma.
Among the most common "on the job" injuries is spinal injury.
It's one of the reasons why 85% of the population will experience disabling low back pain at least once during their lives!
That's almost all of us.
Thus increasing the amount of job injuries reported and time lost at work.
According to researchers, 6.8% of the U.S. adult population is suffering from an episode of back pain lasting more than two weeks, with the estimated cost of lower back problems in the U.S. being over $50 billion a year.

Numbness in your hands could be coming from your neck and lead to serious problems for many if not addressed.
The numbness indicates there is a neurological problem.
Doctors of chiropractic specialize in the spine and neurological function of the spine.
Numbness of the hands can be caused by misalignments of the spinal vertebrae contributing to muscle spasms, arthritis and spinal cord injury.
A doctor of chiropractic will give you an examination and take an x-ray if clinically necessary to determine if the cause is structural, mechanical, or both.

Joints are where one bone connects with another.
They are the space between that allow for proper movement and function.
Our body has many different types of joints, from those that barely move at all (like the sutures in your skull) to synovial joints that move in many different directions (like your shoulder joints, ankle joint, hip joint, spinal facet joints, etc).
This affords you proper function and no pain.
However, when joints do not work properly, this leads to a whole host of problems.

Low back pain is the second most common reason for visits the doctor's office, outnumbered only by upper-respiratory infections.
In fact, it is estimated that low back pain affects more than half of the adult population each year and more than 10% of all people experience frequent bouts of low back pain.
The susceptibility of the low back to injury and pain is due to the fact that the low back, like the neck, is a very unstable part of the spine.
Unlike the thoracic spine, which is supported and stabilized by the rib cage.

Whether the cause for your neck pain is whiplash or poor posture, there's no reason to continue living in pain.
Dr. Manuel M. Mendez has substantial experience treating neck pain patients.
The first step to effective neck pain treatment is to identify the underlying cause.
While most whiplash injuries are associated with car accidents, sports and roller coasters can also lead to whiplash.
A whiplash injury occurs when the force of a rear impact knocks the cervical spine out of alignment.
The cervical spine is now abnormally covered, with the upper cervical spine hyperextended and the lower cervical spine hyperflexed.
