Extremity pain changes everything. It’s more than discomfort—it’s disruption. The aching shoulders. The stiff knees. The burning sensation in your wrists. You feel it with every step, every reach, every lift. And when the pain lingers, it doesn’t just slow you down—it stops you.
But you don’t have to live with it. At Edmonds Chiropractic & Sports Medicine, Dr. Jon Martin helps people move beyond extremity pain—without surgery, without endless medications, and without limits.
What Is Extremity Pain?
Extremity pain affects the joints, muscles, nerves, and tendons outside of your spine—your shoulders, elbows, wrists, hips, knees, and ankles. It can feel sharp or dull. It can come and go. But it always holds you back.
And if you’ve been told that pain in your arms or legs has nothing to do with your spine—think again. The spine is your body’s command center, and when it’s out of alignment, nerve signals misfire—often showing up as pain in your extremities.
Types of Extremity Pain We Treat:
Upper Extremity Pain:
✔ Shoulder Pain: Rotator cuff injuries, frozen shoulder, and impingement syndrome.
✔ Elbow Pain: Tennis elbow, golfer’s elbow, and overuse injuries.
✔ Wrist and Hand Pain: Carpal tunnel syndrome, arthritis, and repetitive strain injuries.
✔ Numbness or Tingling in Arms or Hands: Often caused by nerve compression in the neck or upper spine.
Lower Extremity Pain:
✔ Hip Pain: From bursitis, arthritis, or sciatic nerve irritation.
✔ Knee Pain: Runner’s knee, meniscus injuries, or arthritis.
✔ Ankle and Foot Pain: Plantar fasciitis, Achilles tendonitis, and sprains.
✔ Leg Pain and Sciatica: Burning, shooting pain caused by pinched nerves or disc issues.
What Causes Extremity Pain?
Extremity pain often comes from a chain reaction—misalignment in one part of your body creating imbalance everywhere else. Common causes include:
✔ Spinal Misalignments: When vertebrae shift out of place, they compress nerves that lead to your arms or legs—causing pain, numbness, or weakness.
✔ Repetitive Stress Injuries: From typing, lifting, or sports—causing inflammation and pain over time.
✔ Sports Injuries: Strains, sprains, and overuse injuries that cause joint and muscle damage.
✔ Arthritis: Wear and tear on joints, leading to stiffness, pain, and reduced mobility.
✔ Poor Posture: Slouching, crossing your legs, or sitting incorrectly can cause pain to radiate into your extremities.
✔ Pinched Nerves: Herniated discs, spinal misalignment, or tight muscles can compress nerves, sending pain signals to your arms or legs.
✔ Auto Accidents: Whiplash and trauma often cause pain that radiates beyond the spine into your extremities.
The Frustration of Living with Extremity Pain:
You stretch. You ice. You rest. But the pain stays.
-
You can’t type without pain.
-
You can’t lift your arm without wincing.
-
You can’t walk without limping.
-
And you can’t sleep without discomfort.
You’ve tried braces. You’ve tried medications. But the pain always comes back—because no one has addressed what’s causing it. Until now.
