MayoClinic defines dysplasia as: a bone disorder in which scar-like (fibrous) tissue develops in place of normal bone. As the bone grows, the softer, fibrous tissue expands, weakening the bone. Fibrous dysplasia can cause the affected bone to deform and become susceptible to fracture. Mild cases of fibrous dysplasia usually cause no signs or symptoms. More-serious cases may result in bone pain and deformity, which usually develop before age 15. The basic cause of fibrous dysplasia is unknown. Fibrous dysplasia can affect any bone in your body. There's no cure for fibrous dysplasia.
WAIT! No cure? According to your average medical doctor you only solution is drugs and surgery. Here’s the GOOD NEWS! Chiropractic care can help fix dysplasia!
This is the case study of a 7 day-old infant with hip dysplagia affecting left leg. The patient wore a brace, which restricted movement of both legs. Infant would not extend left leg and did not have full range of motion. Examination revealed a sacral subluxation. After adjustment, child could extend left leg and had full range of motion. Patient returned one week later, no hip dysplagia evident. According to the parents, their orthopedist was amazed and could not understand what had happened. Parents did not tell him that they had taken the baby to a chiropractor. (Hip Dysplagia in 7 day old infant. Case Studies. Webster, L. Chiropractic Showcase Magazine, Vol. 2, Issue 5, Summer 1994.) Low back and hip pain could be a sign of underlying problems. Call your Chiropractor in Concord now at 925 685-2002 to see how Chiropractic can help you or visit our website at www.bartonchiro.com
