As the diagram to the left illustrates, your spinal cord's nerves branch out throughout your body, connecting to many vital organs. Your overall spinal wellness affects many areas of the human body and is imperative for optimal health.
Twenty-four vertebrae make up the spinal column. There are seven located in the neck (cervical), 12 in the mid-section of the back (thoracic), and five in the lower back (lumbar). Made up of billions of nerves, the spinal cord lies in the spinal column where it is protected on all sides by bone.At our practice, we provide treatment for various spinal conditions. One of the spinal problems is Whiplash. It is defined as an injury that may occur due to a sudden sharp movement or motion of the neck and head, such as a rear-end collision.
Do I Use Ice or Heat on an Injury?
- If in doubt, use cold. Seldom can any damage occur from using a cold compress or ice pack. Anything that is swollen should be treated with the use of cold therapy.
- Moist heat may be applied only after the inflammation has subsided. The danger associated with using heat early on in an injury is the over-engorgement of tissue with blood and fluid. Dry heat, such as a heating pad, does not penetrate, therefore moist heat should be applied when it is necessary.
- An easy rule to remember is; cold in the beginning and heat in the latter part of an injury.
- Dr. Walker can assist you with instructions for an ice compress or moist heat as well as the duration of application.
