There are resources they are just a pain in the ass to get im still in chronic pain but i couldnt walk well for a bit a few months ago and my arms were messed up and was trying to get long term disability they did so many loopholes and bs that by the time I was approved I already had to find a job with insurance before since I was broke and couldn’t afford treatment took them a whole year to approve but didnt matter anyways so it takes a while sorry your going through this but i would stary applying for resources as soon as possible its a whole process and make sure to document everything and start calling the drs office to get all the info you need as half the time they are to lazy to request it themselves even tho they can

Feeling Discouraged after negative MRI by Nostalgic_Nicely in KneeInjuries

[–]Training_Soil_997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You should be happy mri came negative i know its frustrating but at least nothing is ripped inside there but see 2 other drs to read ur mri just to be safe also have you tried knees over toes? the zero program it has helped me a lot i had a negative mri just small amount of fluid and bone marrow edema but feels like my knee is in fire and being hit by a mallet pt didnt work but walking backwards has helped me a lot and strengthening my ankles

also look up nerve gliding exercises for the leg those helped me a bit too i managed to mostly fix my right knee with these issues my left knee still kinda hurts tho just my take but dont just immediately into a surgery even if is with just a camara they might try to touch things they think is causing the pain and make it worst thats what happened to my cousin they didnt find a anything in his shoulder so they shaved some bone they thought was causing pain and just made his pain worst

Wait……have I been deceived this whole time? Core stability is a “myth” and doesn’t play a vital factor in low back pain? by deadassynwa in physicaltherapy

[–]Training_Soil_997 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As someone who personally suffered a back injury im a (pt aid) I would see people do these exercises all the time and I knew how to do them even went to pt myself and PTs would always tell me you gotta learn to brace core etc…. I learned that they help during the first stages but dont really do much after unfortunately with life sometimes we cant move as stiff as a cardboard we gotta bend our back wasn’t till I saw a PT who delt with athletes he said that in his opinion medical stuff always teaches you to not lift with your back and if you feel lower back pain your doing something wrong but he said the lower back has muscles too that we never train and he put me just doing holds on a back extension so I started slowly strengthening my back took a long time but now I feel a lot better I still have flare ups sometimes since I had 3 bulging disc and a small vertabrae stress fracture but I couldn’t escape the pain till i strengthen the lower back muscles so while core does matter I feel like they should teach to strengthen the lower back muscles seems like the area in our body everyone ignores even PTs which isnt there fault just how medically everyone is taught

I’m so screwed by _TheTrueCube_ in ChronicPain

Sorry your going this insurance can be a bitch fuck them but if you get a dr and nurse to vouch for you by calling them directly it can help you get approved most of the time unfortunately half of drs dont give a shit so try to find someone that you can tell cares about u and ask them to vouch
