I have had accupuncture, it often helps & doesn't hurt at all but of course it depends on what exactly went wrong, still this ancient form of chinese medicine has been around curing all sorts of things for thousands of years.
I have also been to chiroprators, i'm less thrilled aboutthem mainly because I have neck problems & they always want to crack my neck & i'm not having it because that can kill you if they get it one teeny bit wrong (i was seeing a medical dr/chiropratcor for my neck & a patient of his died after a treatment due to a slight miscalculation causing a brain heamorrhage!!) but lower down or on other parts of the body there's nothing I know of to worry about & it might help, but again it's not knowing exactly what went wrong so what is it that is actually causing the pain, bone, muscle, nerve, what?? This creates a problem re healing it.
Drs are just glorified (& often hopeless) mechanics & we pay them far too much heed & $$$$. We need to be more proactive. Given that there would seem to have been a mistake made by the dr, what about getting some legal advice as to suing for $$$ to obtain treatment from a dr who has a great reputation for getting things right or fixing other drs errors????
