It is a little known fact that the majority of mid and lower back and neck pain start early in life. Subluxation (subtle misalignment of bones) can even occur during the birthing process. Difficult deliveries, forceps, and vacuum extraction can all put stress on the developing spine, which could cause discomfort or pain for the infant. Since infant spines are still flexible, it is thought that they do not usually suffer from lower back or neck pain, but subluxations can also result in sinusitis, ear infections, colic, learning disorders, breastfeeding problems, or even pinched nerves.
Parents should take their child to a chiropractor within the first two weeks of life. A Geneva chiropractor will identify issues like a pinched nerve. If such an issue is not treated, it can cause neck and back pain, sore throat and scoliosis in teens and children.
Children can benefit in many ways from seeing a chiropractor. Students show that chiropractic adjustment is more effective for alleviating ear infection than antibiotics or tubes. It also shows positive results for children suffering from tonsillitis, asthma, sleep problems, digestive issues and colic.
Falls and bumps are common for toddlers who are learning to walk, but most of them do not cause damage to the spine. Nevertheless, a bad bump or fall may cause lasting effects. If delicate nerve tissues suffer damage, they can result to bone spurs and abnormal bone growth once the spinal discs and other soft tissues become swollen and inflamed.
Fast forward to 5 to 10 year old kids. Your child will start playing organized sports and may suffer repeated tumbles and falls. Playground injuries to the spine are also common. From age 10 to 15, the spine of a child can be affected by poor posture, the improper loading and carrying of backpacks, a sedentary or inactive lifestyle, or repetitive sports movements. This age group is most likely to be injured by falling off roller blades or skateboards, being tackled during a game, or by a ball hitting them in the head. If the spine is aligned properly at this time, it will help stop future problems
Teens experience a period of rapid growth. The fast changes in the length of their bones places tension on the muscles. This can cause pain in the area where the muscles attach to the bones. The rate of bone growth can vary from one side to the other. It is possible for teens to lean a little bit to one side causing muscles on the opposite side to become tighter. Affected teenagers may begin walking off balance, lifting loads improperly and sitting awkwardly. Their body will adjust if they undergo spinal adjustment.
A chiropractor and his caring staff will combine regular adjustments with advice on exercise, posture, and proper nutrition. Proper chiropractic care will help your child or teenager to be functionally and structurally sound the natural way, without the use of any drugs. If the chiropractor recognizes that your child has a more complex health issue, he is morally and ethically bound by the ICA Council of Pediatrics to refer your child to other medical practitioners for care.
