What's wrong with me?

Pain will limit a patient’s memory and ability to understand. It happens when a patient is in pain and asks me “what’s wrong with me?” I’ll answer and 1 ½ minutes later, they’ll say, “I wish I knew what was wrong with me.” I’ll answer again and sure enough, they’ll leave the office wondering what’s wrong with them.

Pain can blur things. If you don’t know what’s wrong with your body, ask me. I’ll be happy to answer more than once. I understand it’s hard to remember.

The more you know about your own condition, the more you’ll understand why I recommend ice versus heat or stretching versus exercise. Make sure you know why you are coming in to see me.
