Please help! Any advice!!

Posted , 3 users are following.

Hello all! I have experienced neck pain for many years now (at least 6-7 years), with no history of an accident or injury to cause it. I went to a chiropractor and he said I had 5 subluxations in my neck and I have gone to see him for a year and a half now, first three times a week for adjustments and now every two weeks. The reason why I went to see him was the pain was so excruciating I could not get out of bed all day and my neck had cracked so loud that I was nauseous and shaking! craziness. Anyway, I used to be able to not be able to sit on the couch or in the car comfortably (I would keep a pillow behind my back and head on couch just to feel okay). Now I can sit normal but I feel as If the pain never goes away or that my joints are inflamed as well (ankles, wrists etc.) My career is a photographer and a part time cleaning job. I ice my wrists after weddings and have recently joined a gym to help strengthen my muscles. I have also tried yoga, weird diets, massages, and tumeric pills, new bed, $60 pillow from chiropractor... The other day I went for a massage and the past 5 days I have had a headache every day now. I need advice! Am I crazy for thinking something is wrong with me?? Should a 23 year old, 5"7 1/2inch woman 165 lbs be in this much pain??
