When Should I Go to the Chiropractor?

I have had acute low back pain for the last 36 hours. I have been to the Urgent Care center immediteley after the injury and was in the ER about 12 hours ago. At both visits I was given a shot of Toradol which took away about 20% of the pain for two hours. I was sent home with Vicodin, Naprosyn and a Muscle Relaxer. I have taken all medications within their prescribed limits and recieved minimal releif. The sedative effect of the medication enabled me to sleep for 3 hours and I have woken up with intractable pain and am several hours away from any medication being due.

I need some releif. Is it okay to go to the chiropractor in this acute state or would he do more harm than good?

Hello, I just had twin boys on monday June 30th. They were 9 weeks early and are currently in the nicu. I am pumping breast milk for them. I am having really bad back pain that is interfering with my sleep so i contacted my midwife thursday at 1 am and she was supposed to send a prescription in and never did..i called again mid afternoon and never got a call back..last night i was so desperate to sleep i took a pill called flexeril and didn’t think nothing of it until my husband mentioned it could be in the breast milk and now i’m really scared to give them my milk not knowing if it will harm them in any way. I only took 1 10 mg. could it hurt them? how long until it’s out of my system? please someone help..i’ve contacted the lactation specialist and i’m waiting for her to call but am trying to get some other answers in the meantime. thanks in advance.
