6-7 Months PCS..can I work out now?
Still feeling strong dizziness, mental fog, memory loss/forgetfulness, ears ringing, and bad neck pain (I have to crack my neck constantly throughout the day and it physically just feels out of place). I've been getting out of shape because I haven't been really doing any physical exercise cause I constantly feel like crap. If so, what am I allowed to do? I know I probably can't run, because when I'm out in the backyard with my dog and run around with him for a little bit I get pretty dizzy. Would I be able to go on a stationary bike and also lift?
On top of this, what should I really be doing all day? I'm basically on my computer all day because I'm home and I'm a computer science major (18 yrs old), and I simply want to heal as much as I can before I get back to school. If anyone can help me out with a simply guideline, that would be awesome. I've been following the vitamin regimin besides curcumin because I'm not sure what that really is. But would anyone be able to help me figure out the best possible way to heal up? I have about a month and a half until I'm back at college, so help would be very much appreciated. |
A stationary bike should be OK but do not push to a level of increased symptoms. You seriously need to get help with your neck. And, stop cracking your neck, at least until you have had a neck expert help you heal your neck. Some experts believe self cracking creates a degenerative condition that causes a need for even more neck cracking. Some believe it leads to osteo-arthritis.
For some, it becomes an Obsessive Compulsive Disorder behavior. Your neck issues could be a big cause of your symptoms. 80% of concussion symptoms are neck related. Here is a web site that explains the problem and how to end it. It takes serious discipline to allow the neck to heal. Massage and Bodywork Magazine for the Visually Impaired |

What type of doctor should I try to find that can specialize in Neck pain and the issue that I'm going through? |
A carefully selected chiropractor like a nucca.org upper cervical chiro may be good. http://www.nucca.org/nucca-directory/
Generic 'twist the head and pop the neck' chiros may not be the best for you. Some physical therapists can help. I bet you need some OCD help, too. It will take a lot of discipline on your part. Nobody else is going to fix you. They can only help you fix yourself. Read the link I posted. He specifically addresses computer users. |
