Confused TBI cause of Chronic Joint Pain?

Hi I had a concussion four years ago that caused "mild" damage mainly to the cerebellum and other areas.

I had an MRI but the neurologists I've seen have differing opinions.

Somewhere in that same month when I got the concussion I started getting really sore,stiff,cracky muscles/joints/bones. The pain has persisted through the past 4 years some months the pain is worse than others but it is ALWAYS there.

One Dr. noticed my elbow made a "ratchety" sound when moved.

It's mainly my neck, hands, toes, and back that are in constant pain.

I excercise and stretch for at least an hour every day but only provides temporary relief.


Has anyone experienced this kind of pain after a TBI??? Are they related?

You might want to explore this website about upper cervical adjustments -
a page link to get you started -

After any head hit/injury I think this is one the first things to check, I wish I had known about it 40 yrs ago... my horse dumped me on my head..
I think I would have less problems now if this treatment was well known/accepted back then.
But I think it is still not a mainstream treatment..
