- Most patients who see their doctors have very little understanding about their own X-rays. When you are suffering with pain YOU MUST know everything about your X-rays. This will help you make the right decisions as your body repairs and heals.

I took radiology course back when i did my bachelors in physical therapy, and i paid around 1000 dollars for that course, and i wanna say that i never enjoyed a single lecture of it like i enjoyed this.
Thank you so much Dr. Alan
More explanation than I have ever received in 9 years of spinal damage.. Thank you
Dear Dr. Mandell, appreciate for everything you are doing to help. God bless you Dr.
Thanks for this doc. I am a mess, and I don't feel like my doctors really take time to help me. I'm glad you showed us this in detail, next appointment I will have this memorized. I already knew the darned bone spurs and the osteoarthritis, ugh.😥
Thank God for someone like you to explain this to all of us , lol I have had 4 back surgeries , and have learned alot from all of them. I research it all , and get some from you !!!!!!!!!!!
We love you too Dr Mandel ❤
I have a herniated disc and sacroiliac joint dysfunction.
Thank you Dr Mandell! This video is very informative. So grateful for your generosity to help us all. I have severe disc degeneration L4L5. Born with spina bifida and scoliosis, now way into my middle years, I've had major lower back/leg pain most of my life. Now the sciatica is so bad I have difficulty walking, standing, sitting--in other words, there is no comfortable positions anymore. I've had MRI and CT scans and have seen the neurosurgeon who says I'm complicated and said he won't touch me until I can no longer walk at all. Boom! 5 min of his time and I was sent home. I feel like my life is done. I've kept myself healthy, always active when younger--running, tennis, biking, hiking, walking and year after year, more pain. Can you possibly do a video on exercises for one in my position to do without injuring myself further please? I realize I cannot fix degeneration and spondo but with so much bone and nerve pain I have to try something besides wait until I can no longer walk. Very thankful for all you do to help us all. God bless you Dr M.
Hi, check out my video on serrapeptase. That may be helpful in reducing inflammation and scar tissue
Thank you very much, Dr. Mandell! I have always been interested in the human anatomy and how to read the x-rays. Your presentation helped me understanding better.
Thank you doc, big like for these efforts helping us understand our bodies...
Thanks so much for putting all this info out there. ❤️ That was really informative and interesting!!!
Thank you Dr your videos are awesome and informational. But can you please add to your video how to either heal the problem or how or what to make the problem better.
Thank you Sir.
As a complete layman, with the mind of a steel trap, Yes I am really enjoying this knowledge, Doctor.
Thank You for offering your knowledge.
Great video. Now help us read our MRI's and CT's.
Could you explain how Chiropractors are technically doctor's being doctors of chiropractic, but not medical doctors. That's confusing to so many and a lot of chiropractors (not implying you) prey on "laymen" for lack of a better word, that don't know the difference and advertise services that clearly fall into medical treatment. I've always been curious how a good chiro feels about that.
AH HA MOMENT!!!!! My pelvis is imbalanced and I thought this whole time I had one pelvis anterior and the other posterior until you mentioned the size of the obturator internus on an x-ray. I checked my x-ray and both are identical so this leads me to assume that I have more of a lateral pelvic tilt. I will keep researching, but thank you for the breakdown of muscles, organs and bones.
you are the honest care one
This video is NOT complex, and it is also NOT long winded
Your method of oral instruction is unique and just what the doctor ordered...
No pun intended... :)
Many thanks doc, this is great helpful video that I ever seen.
Thanks doc
Love from INDIA🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🇮🇳🙏🙏
I have some pictures from some x-rays 2 years back, I'm looking forward to watching this after I find them. Probably would be best to use more up to date X-rays but I don't have any right now.
Thanks Dr Mandal is there exercises to perform to cure sponderlothesis without surgery.
Thanks for this 👍👍👍.
you are the best. thank you
Thank you.
Thank you doc
So what good is an xray for chronic back pain? Doctors always require a new one year after year.
Is aways good 😊 to hear the truth .... tks a lot ...
I would like to know if fruits 🍉 even consumed whole (w fiber) are inflamatory due to its fructose ....
Tks again
Very enlightening explanation. Thanks Doc, God bless you. Pls, help me out Sir. I have been experiencing lower back pain Since last year. It was worse from onset but got better with time after medications. I was later told to do a lumbosacral X-ray, to know what the problem was. After I did the lumbosacral X-ray and presented it to two different doctors, the first said its spondilosis while the other said my spine is in good condition, it's just muscle spasm. This got me confused, pls how can I know which of them was right and how can I correct it Sir?
Great presentation. Can you show what a healthy spine looks like.
Thank you, Doctor Alan! I need this.I have a big LS spine tumor. Thank you for any helpful video. Greetings from Belgrade, Serbia :-)
Hi, what kind of tumor. Respond to motivationaldoc on fb
thank u very much
you are like to god us
Amazing !! Thanks 😊👍🙏❤️
when ever i get an xray the doctors always says they don't see anything.. I could never lay on my back in my early 20's.. i would have to role over and them i would be limping... Now i have leg pain in both legs especially when i walk up steps....
Good one. Look forward to more of such videos
Great information ...thanks alot
Thanks doctor! Tons of respect for your work. Now I can see clear what my doctor told me. I've lost my low back lordosis. I've been operated twice (microdisectomy) l5s1 and that's why my doctor says i've lost it...Is there any way to recover my lordosis back? I have one side of the pelvis upper than the other too... Thank you for help us.
This will be good to understand. I want to get checked next year and get an mri if my spine and then recheck my neck because I have reversed curve in my cervical spine.
Referring to the bowel gas: is it bad that I had different ultrasounds and the last two I had said the bowel gas was obstructing my pancreas view so they couldn’t see it?
Hi, thanks for this very educational video. I went and got a ex ray for my back and the doctor said there's nothing wrong with it yet I keep feeling pain. I was just wondering how I can send you my spinal ex ray for you to have a look at... I fell down and landed on my back 10 years ago

Dear Doc, thank you so much for sharing this informative video. I have a question about the point you mention in this video at 18:50 minutes. My L4 is slipped inside of 1 degree.

Please do a review of the knee.

Consult a physiotherapist!
You taught me well 😁
Do you want the bones to be white or dark? Bc mine are EXTREMELY white??? So is that bad ?
Doctor if I had your email address, I would give my MRI photos to have your openion, my GP says I have arthritis and I do not understand what she is talking about, because I ve never had such problem in my Neck.
For the sake of God if it is possible please help me..😢

Thank you very much Dr.
And boron, too.
Can lower back causes scoliosis??
Interesting info! Is it good or bad for feet to go barefoot most of the time?
I've heard its better to go barefoot because your feet/ankles are less restricted, you better feel the ground and it helps maintain all the support muscles involved with upright movement, that said I do not know, it does seem logical...
EThanks for that great input, Frank. I am from Kentucky, and I hate to re-enforce the stereo type about being barefoot… LOL But, I only wear shoes when I have to. As I get older, I worry about my feet spreading and getting wider because of this. The doc emphasized the importance of having good supportive shoes. Am I promoting fallen arches? Just a thought.🤔
I'm in Arizona, I stay barefoot all year most of the time. From my understanding falling arches is a muscle deficiency, there are lots of important stabilizer muscles in the feet/calves that need to be maintained for good foot/postural health, there are many exercises to build up these muscles where you point the toes, roll the ankles, etc, you'll get a good idea how weak or strong your various support muscles are when you try a few of them.
Barefoot is good but not realistic in public
I know right? I would be barefooted ALL the time if I could get away with it. LOL no shirt no shoes no service! Thanks Doc. Love your videos.
