Dr. Medina is available to treat conditions such as arthritis, back pain, joint stiffness, muscle spasms, and sports injuries.

Whiplash
Whiplash is a neck injury that occurs when the head is suddenly jerked forward and backward, typically in car accidents, sports injuries, or falls. This rapid movement strains the muscles, ligaments, and vertebrae in the neck, leading to pain, stiffness, headaches, and sometimes dizziness or blurred vision. Symptoms of whiplash may not appear immediately, but they can worsen over time, affecting the ability to turn the head, focus, or even sleep comfortably. Left untreated, whiplash can lead to chronic pain and restricted mobility, impacting your quality of life.

Bulging and Herniated Discs
Bulging and herniated discs often cause back pain, resulting from wear and tear or injury to the spine. A bulging disc occurs when the disc's outer layer weakens, causing it to protrude out of its normal space between the vertebrae. A herniated disc is more severe, as the inner gel-like material of the disc leaks out, irritating nearby nerves.

Traumatic Headaches
Traumatic headaches may occur after experiencing an intense head or neck injury. Common symptoms of traumatic headaches can include sensitivity to light and sound, throbbing pain, dizziness, confusion, and fatigue. These types of headaches may resemble symptoms that are often related to migraines or tension headaches.Do not let headaches control your life.

Back pain
Back pain is a frequent issue that affects millions of people worldwide, often disrupting daily activities and quality of life. It can stem from a variety of causes, including muscle strain, poor posture, disc problems, or conditions such as arthritis. The pain can be acute, following an injury, or chronic, persisting for weeks or even months. Symptoms of back pain vary but often include stiffness, muscle spasms, and difficulty moving. In some cases, the pain may radiate down the legs, indicating issues with the nerves, such as sciatica. Treatment depends on the underlying cause

Concussion Assessment
Concussions are a type of traumatic brain injury that can arise from head impact or rapid head movement. Incidents such as sports injuries or auto accidents are common among those who develop concussions. Concussion assessments may include testing that involve balance checks as well as cognitive testing. Checking for symptoms such as worsening headaches, repeated vomiting, seizures, slurred speech, or loss of consciousness is also common practice.

Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative disc disease, or DDD, occurs when the intervertebral discs, which act as cushions between the bones of the spine, deteriorate over time. This condition often leads to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility, especially in the lower back or neck. While DDD is a natural part of aging, it can be accelerated by factors such as injury, obesity, or poor posture. The breakdown of discs may lead to other spine-related issues, like herniated discs or nerve compression, resulting in additional symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or weakness in the limbs.

Neck Pain
Neck pain can result from poor posture, stress, injury, or prolonged periods of sitting or looking down, such as when using a phone or computer. This pain can range from mild stiffness to sharp, debilitating discomfort that limits mobility and affects daily activities. In some cases, neck pain may be accompanied by headaches, shoulder pain, or tingling in the arms, indicating pressure on nerves or spinal misalignment.
