Ice Can Prevent Making Your Back Pain Worse

Chiropractic care for patients with low back pain (LBP) not only includes spinal manipulation or non surgical Spinal Decompression but also patient education in regards to heat/ice, performing daily activities and exercise.

Heat vs. Ice: This topic is controversial, as often, patients will be told by their friends and family to use the opposite of what we may recommend to our patients. In general, when pain is present, there is inflammation… so use ice to reduce swelling and pain. When heat is inappropriately used during the inflammatory phase of healing, an increase in blood supply to the already swollen injured area can results in an increase in pain. The use of heat may be applied later in the healing process during the reparative phase of healing, but as long as pain is present, using ice is usually safer.
