Personally, I’d start with a chiropractor. I’ve always had the impression that Medical Doctors, spend time to do test, suggest medication, physical therapy and possibly surgery, and with my experience and limited knowledge most pain relief seems to come from alignment correction.
my impression of chiropractic care is it’s joint adjustment which to me equates to to an aggressive and immediate physical therapy, in which I tend to get immediate relief. I have nothing against medical doctors BTW.
