Severna Park Leg Pain and Memory Benefit from Curcumin

Memory and back pain. Back pain and cognition. Is there a relationship? Ask any Severna Park back pain sufferer who has had the pain for some time, and you will hear just how the mind and memory just don’t seem to work like normal when pain is on the mind. Back And Neck Care Center gets it. Back pain specialists like yours at Back And Neck Care Center understand this connection. Pain disturbs the brain and its memory function. Chiropractic care works to reduce the pain, and Back And Neck Care Center may propose some curcumin to foster the pain relief…and memory and cognition recovery.

CURCUMIN FOR MEMORY ISSUES

Chronic pain sufferers know that their pain affects their quality of life. It slows them down. It holds them back. They also deal with stress due to their chronic pain and non-pain-related issues which aggravates their symptoms. It is a vicious cycle. These pain and stress feelings alongside emotions, learning, and memory are managed by the hippocampus. Neuropathic pain affects the nervous system, and hippocampal neurogenesis, its growth and development of nervous tissue, is aggravated by stress. (1) To combat this negative effect on the nervous system, researchers are researching nutrients like curcumin. Curcumin eased chronic pain and improved cognitive impairment and memory deficit linked to long-term sciatic nerve constriction. Researchers explain that hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity improvements may be acknowledged, so we will just do that (and be grateful that researchers know the process!) instead of working to totally understand them ourselves. (2) Back And Neck Care Center treats many Severna Park leg pain patients and their pain relief from a compressed and irritated sciatic nerve. Curcumin may help both memory and sciatica!

CURCUMIN FOR SCIATICA

There is compelling evidence that curcumin has an important part in the treatment of pathological pain stemming from sciatic nerve injury, neuropathy and the like. (3) Current drugs for acute pain (opioids, NSAIDs, acetaminophen and such) help but also have side-effects (renal, liver, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal) and have a potential for abuse. This persuaded a few researchers to look at curcumin more closely. Curcumin is said to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic pain-reducing effects…without the side-effects. (4) Other researchers found that nanocurcumin (a soluble form of curcumin) prevented pain-related behavior, reduced inflammatory markers and improved memory deficient and spatial learning in chronically constricted rats. (5) Curcumin may be suitable for your Severna Park back pain condition, too. Back And Neck Care Center will delve into this with you at your next Severna Park chiropractic visit.
