Back Issues

Experiencing back issues is a common occurrence that can happen at least once in your life, especially as your body ages. Around 8 out of 10 people in the US experience back pain, impacting daily activities and overall quality of life.

Back conditions, such as chronic back pain, herniated discs, or degenerative disc disease, can limit your mobility and hinder daily activities like walking or standing. Dealing with these back issues can be uncomfortable.

Lifestyle choices, injuries, medical conditions, and lumbar spine structure can all contribute to your back problems. Identifying these factors is crucial to prevent complications and find effective solutions.

At Kimball Health Services, we aim to provide comprehensive care tailored to your specific back problem, improving your overall well-being.

Fractures

Fractures are common injuries that can occur at home, during sports activities, or in the workplace. The word "fracture" is the clinical term for a broken bone, and they vary in severity from hairline cracks to compound fractures where the broken bones may penetrate the skin.

Fractures of the ankle, foot, hand, hip, knee, shoulder, or wrist are the most common instances of the injury.

At Kimball Health Services, our dynamic orthopedic team of  Dr. Jeffrey T. MacMillan and Karen Wenner, APRN, DNP, along with our primary care team, treat ailments and trauma affecting muscles, ligaments, bones, and joints.
