My chiropractor's $40 brace advice backfired spectacularly
After my L4/L5 flare up in Fresno, my chiropractor told me to wear this lumbar brace 24/7 for two weeks to 'reset' my spine. By day 5 my back felt worse and I couldn't even bend to tie my kid's shoes, turns out my core muscles just gave up completely. Has anyone else had a doc recommend something that made their injury worse before it got better?
