Take care of musculoskeletal diseases at the beginning in their development. Averting and treating these musculoskeletal conditions early may help avoid the development of chronic diseases in the future. Just what the connection is between musculoskeletal conditions and chronic disease risk is yet unknown.

Richmond chiropractic care may involve checking the level of vitamin B12 since it may influence back pain relief.

TIP OF THE MONTH:

How Is Your Vitamin B12 Level?

Vitamin B12 maintains the health of nerves and blood cells. Mild B12 deficiency may be unnoticed. More advanced B12 deficiency may produce anemia, tiredness, pale skin, appetite drop, constipation, diarrhea, heart palpitations, etc. One concerning condition linked to B12 deficiency is subacute combined degeneration of the spinal cord after nitrous oxide anesthesia. (2) Improving B12 status can help. B12 may be received orally or via injection. One injection study revealed that B12 relieved low back pain and disability and reduced patients’ consumption of paracetamol for pain relief. (3) B12 deficiency may be evaded by having meat, poultry, seafood, dairy products, and eggs or taking B12 supplements. Talk with your Richmond chiropractor about the best approach for you toward healthy B12 status!
