Fernandina Beach Leg Pain and Memory Benefit from Curcumin

June 08, 2021

Memory and back pain. Cognition and back pain. Is there a relationship? Ask any Fernandina Beach 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 function like normal when pain is on the mind. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic understands. Back pain specialists like yours at Amelia Chiropractic Clinic understand this connection. Pain affects the brain and its memory function. Chiropractic care works to decrease the pain, and Amelia Chiropractic Clinic may propose some curcumin to foster the pain relief…and memory and cognition improvement.

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 worsens their symptoms. It’s a vicious cycle. These pain and stress feelings as well as emotions, learning, and memory are managed by the hippocampus. Neuropathic pain impacts the nervous system, and hippocampal neurogenesis, its growth and development of nervous tissue, is aggravated by stress. (1) To fight this negative effect on the nervous system, researchers are researching nutrients like curcumin. Curcumin eased chronic pain and enhanced cognitive impairment and memory deficit associated with long-term sciatic nerve constriction. Researchers describe how hippocampal neurogenesis and synaptic plasticity improvements may be acknowledged, so we will just do that (and be grateful that researchers understand the process!) instead of working to totally understand them ourselves. (2) Amelia Chiropractic Clinic cares for many Fernandina Beach 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 plays 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 come with side-effects (renal, liver, cardiovascular, gastrointestinal) and hold a potential for abuse. This stimulated some researchers to study curcumin more. Curcumin is said to have anti-inflammatory and analgesic pain-reducing effects…without the side-effects. (4) Other researchers discovered that nanocurcumin (a soluble form of curcumin) prevented pain-related behavior, decreased inflammatory markers and improved memory deficient and spatial learning in chronically constricted rats. (5) Curcumin may be applicable for your Fernandina Beach back pain condition, too. Amelia Chiropractic Clinic will delve into this with you at your next Fernandina Beach chiropractic visit.
