Back Pocket Wallet

(keywords: Back Pocket Wallet, chiropractic help, frozen shoulder, sacroiliac joint anatomy)

We can give you at least three good reasons to avoid carrying your wallet in your backpocket.

You gotta pick a pocket or two! Ever read Oliver Twist by Charles Dickens? Then you will know the first good reason. If you haven't, you're missing out on a treat. One of the great books of all times.




Searching for something specific? Say, " slipped disc ". Just type it in here...

Frozen Shoulder

I won't say that carrying your wallet in your backpocket is a cause of Frozen Shoulder, but it's very awkward for almost all shoulder conditions which limit internal rotation of the shoulder joint. Getting your wallet out of your back pocket involves what we call the "Apley's scratch" movement which involves internal rotation and extension of the shoulder. Murder for those with a frozen shoulder. Read more about Frozen Shoulder … and some specific exercises.



Sitting on a wallet

Sitting on your wallet, in the car or at your desk, obviously also will give you (temporarily) a crooked spine, because it raises one side of the pelvis.



Because this twist in your spine, reaches right up into your neck, it's likely to give you headaches and neck pain. It has the same effect on your spine as a short leg. LEG LENGTH INEQUALITY ...




Have A Question about your lower back?

I receive many questions about Chiropractic. It might be help with a spinal condition, but it might also be from a person who can't walk after a hip operation, or some such thing.

I will do that by answering your questions personally, but it will be converted to a Web Page so others can benefit from your questions. Omit your name if you like...

However, do understand that, in the main, I'm going to be directing you (should it be pertinent) to a Chiropractor in your neck of the woods. I'll respond to all reasonable inquiries, but please be specific, and give some details.

There is no charge for this service, however if you find my answer useful, you might like to consider purchasing my latest book, Stones in my Clog. Gems, both funny and healthful, from the life and work of a Chiropractor. It's only $2.99. (http://www.bernard-preston.com/Stones-in-my-Clog.html)

Pose Me A Question! Pretty please, in decent grammar and spelling.

I will never give or sell your e-mail address to anyone.

Do understand that lower back pain is extremely complex, so I can only give general guidelines. There's no substitute for a careful thorough chiropractic examination.

Your problem: eg Tingling in feet and legs

Hello,

I came across your website as I was googling wallet neuropathy and Sciatica related issues stemming from wearing a wallet in your back pocket....




Sacroiliac Joint anatomy

The extra 'pull' on one buttock when walking compared to the other has caused chiropractors to speculate that it is one cause of the notorious Sacro-iliac syndrome. While this hasn't been proved (to my knowledge), it does carry a certain logic. Read more about the Sacroiliac Joint anatomy …

    The "Sciatic notch"

    The sciatic nerve emerges from the pelvis right in the middle of the buttock, right where your back pocket wallet fits. Direct pressure on the sciatic nerve is likely to irritate the nerve. Chiropractic Help says this is a no-no.
