Should I see a chiropractor or a pain management doctor?



A few weeks ago I was in a weird position lying in bed and something startled me causing me to jump, hurl myself forward, and leave my Left arm and shoulder behind! In other words, I dislocated it for a minute then it popped back into place. I cried out in pain. Ever since then, I cant sleep with my Left arm up under the pillow, and sleeping is pretty much a difficult task now. My boyfriend says there are many large "knots" in my neck so he rubs them out and that is the only way I can get relief. Hes not here now, its 6 am, and I cant sleep!

When I was younger I had a bike accident that gave me a concussion and whiplash. Should I see a chiropractor or do they really know what they are doing? Would a family doctor, pain management doctor, or nurse practitioner be better?

I would see a chiropractor (worked great for my partners whiplash) AND a pain management doctor. Chiropractor can relieve the preasure and pain by finding the direct source. Pain management would help because of what the Chirpractor cant treat.
