  1. back pain is the most common cause of consultation in the orthopedics practice...a person would consult a doctor for back apin at least once in his life time....but the good news is at least 80% of these back pains can be treated conservatively, meaning, most cases are non-surgical in nature and can be managed with just medication and/or physical therapy. the remaining 20% would be the cases wherein surgery might be indicated...that is after failure of conservative management.

     

    it should be said that manipulation of the spine should be done with utmost caution and should be done only by those properly trained for this. the reasons for this were stated in the earlier posts. being an orthopedic surgeon myself, i cannot overemphasize the fact that an improperly manipulated spine could cause further injury to the patient...ranging from worsening of the pain to paralysis.

     

    so, if you have to seek treatment with a chiropractor, which personally i would hesitate in advising, at least make sure that he/she is properly trained and has the credentials to boot for it and when in doubt, please see a doctor.

     

    just my two cents worth...keep healthy and remember that prevention is better than cure...

     

    Kailangan ba may MD ka para maging chiropractor? May mga chiropractor na orthopedic surgeons di ba?

  2. P30,000 for both eyes? its cheap.

    try visit www.eye.com.ph

    Sure ba na P30K for both eyes. Mukha yatang masyadong mura. Baka naman professional fee lang yon wala pa yung gamit ng instruments?

  3. Unfortunately, this is the usual scenario.

     

    In majority of cases, infection is acquired around the time of birth or infancy. During this period, the body will not recognize the virus because the immune system is still immature, thus will do nothing about it for years. Sometime, nagiging active sila at dumadami and yet very minimal and non-specific nga ang symptoms as Angel said. Kadalasan di nanatin pinapansin.

     

    To the lucky ones, no serious complications arise inspite years of infection.

     

    To some specialy kung bumagsak yng resistensya, nagiging very active yng virus to the point na nagkakaroon ng significant symptoms like jaundice o paninilaw, among others, that leads then to consult.

    To the REAL unlucky ones, the virus becomes active enough to cause repeated bouts ng inflammation o pagmamaga ng liver pero with relatively mild, non-specific symptoms through the years na di napapansin. This leads to scarring of the liver - cirrhosis which may lead to liver cancer. Some patients also may develop liver cancer without developing cirrhosis.

     

    And so It would be ideal to have yourself screened for HBsAg even though wala ka nararamdaman, specialy if someone in your immediate family tested positive.

     

    Pag nag positive ba sa HBsAg puede pa magpa vaccine?
