I am a bit surprised that pharmacists and physicians don't warn their patients more about the dangers of chronic use of these medications. Two sentences is all it would take "Only take for two weeks then quit. Taken too often, it will damage your organs." Patients might then begin to rethink their aches and pains, 'cowboy-up' a bit. The evidence of the dangers is not new. I remember reading an article published in December 1994 in the NEJM that looked at the dangers of Tylenol and other NSAIDs. In that study, the kidney damage was highlighted. It seems like the researchers found that 8-10% of all kidney failure could be attributed to long-term use of those medications.

These are really helpful exercises and stretches! I think patients would also benefit by altering their work station to make it more ergodynamic and user friendly, so to speak. :) Do you have any tips to help with that? Great article!

]]> Comment on Other Names You Might Hear to Describe Thoracic Outlet Syndrome. by Dr. Andrew White http://lloydchiro.com/2011/10/other-names-you-might-hear-to-describe-thoracic-outlet-syndrome/#comment-1853 Dr. Andrew White Thu, 20 Oct 2011 21:26:25 +0000 http://lloydchiro.com/2011/10/other-names-you-might-hear-to-describe-thoracic-outlet-syndrome/#comment-1853 Great post. This is a common condition treated in chiropractic offices. I have seen countless patients come in with TOS and several have reported long histories of pain and dysfunction. It seems that the biggest source of frustration for the patients is the delay in accurate diagnosis. Once that hurdle is passed, the appropriate treatment plan can be started. Great post.

]]> Comment on Snow Canyon Students in a Car Accident Today. Not Injured Enough for the Hospital, But is there residual Injury? by Auto Accident Freehold NJ http://lloydchiro.com/2011/09/snow-canyon-students-in-a-car-accident-today-not-injured-enough-for-the-hospital-but-is-there-residual-injury/#comment-1505 Auto Accident Freehold NJ Thu, 15 Sep 2011 23:13:39 +0000 http://lloydchiro.com/?p=2168#comment-1505 Great information. I just posted about similar situations. So many people don't realize they had an injury until it's much later.. days, weeks or even months later. Just because there are no symptoms, doesn't mean there isn't trauma to the soft tissues. Great information. I just posted about similar situations.
