What conditions are not treated by pelvic floor physical therapy?
There are some medical conditions that may not be remedied with pelvic floor therapy and may require other forms of treatment. Pelvic floor therapists do not provide medications, so they are unable to fully cure conditions requiring medication. Although pelvic floor therapy can remediate symptoms for numerous conditions, there are various illnesses that require further medical care, including fistulas, diverticulum skin infections, and skin irritations. Patients experiencing these conditions should consult their doctor.
What do TMJ problems feel like?
TMJ issues can cause a variety of symptoms, such as pain or discomfort in the jaw, face, and neck, as well as trouble chewing, headaches, and a popping or clicking sound in the jaw. Additionally, some people might have jaw locking or a shift in how their upper and lower teeth fit together.
What is the best way to treat TMJ?
The severity of the condition and the symptoms of the individual will determine the best course of action for TMJ. Physical therapy is often the first prescribed form of treatment and a nonsurgical approach. Physical therapy may employ relaxation techniques, posture training, jaw strengthening exercises, and mouth guards to stop teeth clenching or grinding. Muscle relaxants and over-the-counter medications may occasionally be used to treat pain and inflammation. Joint surgery might be required in severe, uncommon cases.
What is ergonomic physical therapy?
Ergonomic physical therapy is concerned with modifying a person's work environment or teaching them optimal body mechanics in order to alleviate pain and prevent injuries.
What makes vestibular issues worse?
Several factors can exacerbate vestibular symptoms, including stress, lack of sleep, certain medications, and the consumption of caffeine or alcohol. It's important to discuss these factors with your therapist to manage your symptoms effectively.
