If you are often bothered by morning stiffness in one part of your spine or another, and during the day you feel increased fatigue in it, this book is for you. From it you will learn what is the source of these far from harmless symptoms, and what you should do, and what you should not spend time and money on, so that you do not end up with pain that will not respond well to treatment. Your consultant is a doctor of neurology with forty years of experience who will tell you about the internal and external causes of premature aging of the spine and why some herniated discs and spinal misalignments do not respond to standard treatment, forcing treating physicians to refer their patients to neurosurgeons.
From this book you will learn how to eliminate this little-known cause of constant pain, regardless of where it occurs - in the neck, lower back or coccyx.
Much space in the publication is devoted to the companion of dystrophic processes in the cervical region - tendonitis of the rotator cuff of the shoulder, because the public need for timely diagnosis and treatment of this very common disease is very high. Insufficient familiarity of doctors with this pathology, which is manifested by pain in the shoulder joint in the absence of changes in its bone and cartilage structure, unnecessarily often leads to long and expensive treatment.
After reading the information provided by the doctor, you will appreciate his efforts to minimize commercialism in health care.
The book can be used as an educational tool by physicians and their patients.
