OSTEO EMERGENCY
Did you say emergency?
There is not, strictly speaking, an osteopathic emergency. On the other hand, there may be the appearance of a disorder, a pain which occurs unexpectedly and which results from a so-called functional disorder which, for example, can limit your mobility and prevent you from carrying out your daily tasks with the same dexterity.
It is therefore in no way a medical emergency. Indeed, your vital prognosis is not engaged (*).
​
Some examples:
​
A sudden back pain that prevents you from moving, a torticollis that handicaps you in your daily life, pain in the buttocks that extends into the thigh that makes you limp and many other reasons such as a sprain, pain shoulders or chest, headaches, dizziness, ….
-
sciatica
-
slight sprain
-
lumbago
-
torticollis
-
shoulder pain
-
neuralgia
-
migraine
-
significant loss of mobility
-
pain having a strong impact on daily life (driving, carrying a child, etc.)
In this case, you can make an emergency appointment in our university osteopathic care practice in the "emergency" selection as a reason for consultation and obtain an appointment within 24/48 hours.
​
(*) If you have symptoms suggesting a medical problem requiring emergency medical care, first contact SOS doctors or the nearest emergency service.
