Does having adjustments help with breathing problems?

Adjustments, more commonly known as spinal manipulation, may be able to help some breathing problems. The biggest determinant will be what is causing the breathing problems. Spinal manipulation can increase the mobility of the thoracic spine and ribs which can make breathing easier. Also, manipulation may increase the function of muscles involved in breathing, again, making breathing easier. However, spinal manipulation has not been shown with scientific research to affect airway obstructions caused by asthma, allergies, emphysema, etc. Thus, if your breathing problems are purely mechanical (rib or spine dysfunction) then spinal manipulation will likely help 100%. If your breathing problems are caused by a conditions such as asthma, the spinal manipulation may make breathing a bit easier and improve quality of life, but it will not solve your problems...you will still need medical care.

Should you see a chiropractor for heriated disc after an injection in your back?

I am a chiropractor and I think having an injection would have little bearing on seeing or not seeing a chiropractor for back pain. I doubt that spinal manipulation would aggravate your herniated disc but if you would like to make yourself feel better about your decision you can consult with the medical doctor who gave you the injection. Also chiropractors can do other treatments besides spinal manipulation for back pain.
