Chiropractic care in North Riverside

Herniated and bulging discs

A disc can bulge or herniate and press on nearby nerves, causing back or neck pain and sometimes pain down an arm or leg. Many disc problems are treated conservatively before surgery is considered.

How Dr. Mike treats it

Dr. Mike reviews your exam and any imaging you already have. Care may include traction to ease pressure on the disc, adjustments where they're appropriate, and other therapies. If a surgical opinion is the right next step, he'll say so.

Your first visit

A consultation and exam, so plan a little extra time. Bring your insurance card and a list of what hurts. Dr. Mike will tell you honestly whether he can help.

When not to wait: Get emergency care for worsening weakness in an arm or leg, numbness in the groin, or trouble controlling your bladder or bowels.
