Dr. Brendan Patrick O'connor DC's Expert Contributions
  • I am having pain around my hamstrings. Can I see a chiropractor for this?

    Yes chiropractors are qualified to evaluate musculoskeletal issues such as muscle strains. READ MORE

  • I have sudden pain in my left leg. How can it be treated?

    First thing you need to do is get to a qualified health care professional to determine where the pain is originating from. If it’s muscular it will resolve on its own within a few days. If it’s a nerve related issue it could be sciatica caused by nerve impingement in your back. That can be a spinal issue or a disc problem. A chiropractic exam would help determine which. READ MORE

  • What are the possible causes of hip pain?

    Hip pain can be caused by a number of reasons. In a young, healthy individual, it’s usually due to repetitive overuse. In this case, rest and ice will help. In people in their 40’s and up, it could be the start of arthritis. READ MORE

  • I have a slight neck and shoulder pain every time I drive. Why does this happen?

    Typically we tend to elevate our shoulders and trapezius muscles when we drive without even knowing it. Focus on relaxing your arms and shoulders when you are behind the wheel. READ MORE

  • Should I see a chiro after a car accident?

    You should see a chiropractor 100% of the time after a car accident. Even if your symptoms are mild it's a good idea to get a professional evaluation to avoid more long term chronic issues which may arise when left untreated. READ MORE

  • Do chiropractors typically take x-rays?

    Some but not all Chiropractors take X-rays. From the doctors standpoint it's a great educational tool to help patients understand what's going on internally. In some cases if a patient has undergone a severe trauma it's used to help rule out broken bones or other more serious conditions which may need to be addressed prior to chiropractic treatments. READ MORE

  • Very tight neck

    It's one of the most effective ways to treat chronic neck pain and tension available. I've been treating patients for almost 18 years and the results are amazing. Try it!! READ MORE

  • Is it bad to suddenly stop chiropractic care?

    It's about the equivalent of going to the gym for 5 years on a regular basis and then stopping. Short term you may not notice the effects, but in time those spinal joints will start to tighten up and muscle spasms will follow. Even if you can get in once every 4-6 weeks rather than stopping all together, it will make a big difference. READ MORE

  • Why does my back crack so much during an adjustment?

    Simply put, it's a small pocket of gas which provides a cushion between the joint surfaces. When you stretch the "joint capsule" open, it releases that gas creating a pop. It's the same noise you hear when you "crack"a knuckle. READ MORE
