About 5 years ago, I fell off a horse. In doing so, I ended up getting siatica. About four months after falling, I go to the hospital, due to extream pain down my leg and to my foot. I was reffered to a chryopracter and be put on pain meds for a little bit. Since after, the back of my upper thigh on the leg that had throbbing from the fall, is numb. It was numb after I fell, but the chyropracter said it be normal and would faid away. It has not, and is certainly growing in size of the area effect.
I told my new doctor about it and he suggested an xray. My lone issue with this, is that when I fell and went to the hospital, they took an xray and never found anything.
What would you suggest and what do you devise could possibly be wrong?
I do tend to have pain contained by my leg and back, but I normally close the eyes to it. Now I'm begining to think its not such a great idea to slight.

Hi there

It sees close to your sciatic nerve is being compressed - hence the numbness. The backbone compression could originate from any number of causes - especially post trauma as contained by your case. It could be amongst other things, a herniated or bulging disc, or a slipped vertebra. However, the fact that the x-ray you have done before showed nothing, indicates that this would probably be a disc (soft tissue) injury as challenging a bony abnormality such as a slipped/fractured vertaebra, which would more than likely have shown up on the imaginative x-ray.

You need to ask your Doctor for an MRI and not an x-ray. The MRI will show up soft tissue structures like trapped nerves far more effectively than an x-ray. The x-rays usually do come out beside nothing to report whereas the MRI will be able to relate if something is wrong.

Try not to panic. Areas of numbness, tingling and pain are drastically common with sciatica and I suffer from this myself. I would recommend you to carry on seeing your Chiropractor and push for that MRI scan in the meantime.

Good luck next to this, I hope that you get well soon.

Just my opinion, but a chiropractor is the worse place to go.I would speak you probably will have to live with it.If you can't sleep at nite: 2 Tramadol will do the trick. Maybe a cat scan could find the trouble but you could spend a fortune and never be better than you are. A place that specializes surrounded by pain management could comfort you.
