Question: What kind of doctor would i see for this?
my neck,shoulders,and my back hurts when i lay on my side. my shoulder muscles hurt bad they are super tense and have hurt more than they ever had. if i wanted to go to the doctor would i go to a chiropractic or get a massage or just a doctor? my shoulders have always been tense but they are worse than they have ever been before.

Answers:

Id go to your primary doc first, so he can order x-rays and such to check for things like pinched nerves, slipped dics, etc. He can also start you with pain management meds if need be.You could ask that he refer you for PT or chiropractic care. I have the same problem, I feel your pain, its no fun at all.

That depends on what your problem is. To cover my professional butt in liability, I would need to say see a medical practitioner first. Consider a chiropractor who works with a massage therapist. The two working together would be your best bet. But, what is the problem from? Stress? You don't just want to treat the symptom which is pain, but you also want to find out the source of the problem, so it won't continue. For example you might have a problem with structural alignment which might require structural integration to correct. If this is the case, the problem will continue to come back no matter how many times you visit a chiropractor or massage therapist. Structural integration is a different form of massage therapy.

Your best choice is go to a Chiropractor and make sure he employs a massage therapist. Receive the massage first , then the Chiropractic care



You should go to an orthopedist (an MD), I've seen chiropractors do more damage than good in my experience.
