How X rays Help Us Fix Knee Pain Fast | Chiropractor for Knee Pain in West Omaha, NE
Hi, I’m Dr. Joel Marley with Family First Chiropractic. I’m here today to illustrate how we use digital X ray on site to determine the cause of your knee pain. First, we’re going to do a thorough examination to figure out what the mechanism of the injury could have been.
Using X Ray to Check Bone Alignment
So if there was an injury, that was recent, days or maybe just a few weeks, and we suspect that a misalignment of your knee happened, we will examine your knee alignment by taking a digital X ray. So that’s as easy as using this high quality digital X rays to see the alignment between your femur, and this bone, your tibia. Now, if you’re an existing practice member, let’s say somebody that’s had long standing knee issues, we may determine that the alignment of the pelvis is the cause of your knee pain. If that’s the case, we will address the hip alignment and how the leg strikes the floor. So alignment of the pelvis, if that’s in question, we’ll take an x ray of that and assess to rule out that the cause is coming from the ileum.
Getting Instant Results
So what’s so great about this technology is that the X rays are available to us that quickly. They’ll show up on the screen, and we can analyze the alignment to see if there is some sort of abnormality, pathology, or more serious concern that chiropractic can’t help with. We’ll send out a referral to an orthopedic or a qualified health professional that can take a look at it. When it comes to alignment, by taking an X ray we can determine the cause because it is well understood that to see is to know and to not see is to not know. We’re not going to guess about your health so we use these digital X rays for instant results so we can find the cause of your knee pain. So if you’re struggling with knee pain and you don’t want to be prescribed maybe dangerous narcotics and then physical therapy come have the alignment checked to get to the root of these problems.
