Stents are typically used to keep blood vessels open, particularly in the context of Heart disease. However, in some cases, stents can also be utilized in the airways to alleviate breathing problems caused by obstructions, such as tumors or strictures. By keeping the airway open, stents can improve airflow and relieve respiratory difficulties. It's important to consult a healthcare professional to determine if stenting is an appropriate treatment for specific breathing issues.

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.
