Vitamin C 🍊isn’t just for cold and flu season

Vitamin C 🍊isn’t just for cold and flu season 🦠

Most people don’t know that vitamin C has a number of different roles in the body other than supporting the immune system. In regards to musculoskeletal conditions, Vitamin C is an important factor in muscle repair and the synthesis of collagen, which is the primary protein that makes up tendons and ligaments. Recent studies show that 500mg of Vitamin C and between 5-15 grams of collagen taken about 1 hour before exercise or physical therapy can reduce risk of tendon injury and accelerate healing.

@ancientnutrition has a couple of our favorite supplements. Their Vitamin C and Multi Collagen Protein make a great stack for joint health!

@iamwellandgood @kellsmcphillips featured @dr.Kohler and @dr.Maniam in a wellness article on Vitamins back in November. We’ll post some of the highlights from this article here on our feed and you can find the link to the article in our bio.

@dr.maniam performing a Cervical Epidural Steroid Injection for a patient with neck pain radiating down the left arm.

When performed by a qualified medical professional, a cervical epidural steroid injection directly places cortisone steroid medicine into the area of the spine that surrounds the inflamed nerve root(s). This medication may help reduce nerve root inflammation and relieve the associated pain, such as arm pain.

The purpose of a cervical epidural steroid injection is typically to provide enough short-term pain relief to allow you to begin, or continue, an exercise program. This physical therapy or exercise program may help bring long-term pain relief by strengthening the muscles that support your spine.
