Question on Faucet Pain...

[back2lifeplease]

As you all know I am scheduled to go to Germany for ADR. Been doing more reading and have come accross Faucet pain. Can anyone explain the difference between Faucet pain and pain due to a protuding disc?

As to if a person can feel the difference between the two, it’s unlikely. Worse, many patients can have both as a pain generators, since degenerative disc disease can “fan out” to adjacent tissues. As degeneration occurs, the change in bio-mechanics stress other joints and ligaments -- especially the facets (Z joints).

That’s where a good diagnostic approach can help, whether surgical, natural, or both. I used both approaches.

Any way, by now, you must be an expert in using the search function which works well. You'll find posts like these:
