Back pain is one of the most common reasons people visit their doctor.

One of the biggest mistakes? Stopping all movement and waiting for it to get better.

In many cases, gentle, guided movement can be an important part of recovery.

I teamed up with Brent Hasler, DPT ( )at in Livonia to demonstrate a few simple movements that may be used early in treatment for low back pain.

Remember: not all back pain is the same. Persistent pain, pain traveling down the leg, numbness, weakness, or worsening symptoms should be evaluated.

Back pain can show up fast once you start moving more again.

Most of the time it’s mechanical, but the details matter: where the pain is, whether it travels, and whether there’s numbness or weakness.

We evaluate back pain here at Amen Family Medicine and build the plan from there — movement, medications, imaging when needed, physical therapy, or other treatment options.

Next up: we’ll be teaming up with Livonia to walk through a few basic movements that can help with low back pain.

Twisted an ankle? Pulled a muscle? Strained a joint?

Many of us learned R.I.C.E. (Rest, Ice, Compression, Elevation), but current recommendations have evolved.

The PEACE & LOVE framework focuses on protecting injured tissues early while promoting a gradual return to movement and activity as healing progresses.

The goal isn’t just reducing pain—it’s supporting recovery.

Joint pain or a new injury?

The first step is figuring out what’s actually causing it.

We evaluate muscle and joint concerns in-office with X-ray, ultrasound, treatment options, and referrals when needed.

The goal is to get you moving again safely.

Not every mole is dangerous — but knowing what to look for matters.

The ABCDE’s of melanoma are a simple way to recognize warning signs that may need evaluation.

➡️ Asymmetry
➡️ Border irregularity
➡️ Color variation
➡️ Diameter
➡️ Evolving/changing lesions

If you notice a spot that’s changing, growing, bleeding, or just doesn’t look right, it’s worth getting checked.

Early detection matters.

The weather is finally worth being outside for. Just don’t forget your skin comes with you.

Use the sunscreen. Reapply. And if you notice a spot that’s new, changing, bleeding, or not healing, get it checked.

Skin evaluations and office-based biopsies are available here at Amen Family Medicine.

Getting in fast is great. Getting in fast with a doctor who actually knows you is better.

A lot of urgent issues can be handled right here in primary care — including injuries, procedures, and imaging — often with little to no wait and better follow-up.

We’re accepting new patients at Amen Family Medicine.

Sports physicals aren’t just a form.

They’re about making sure it’s actually safe to play.

At your visit, we’re checking:
• Heart health
• Prior injuries
• Concussion history
• Strength & mobility
• Overall readiness

Most are quick — but they matter.

If your athlete needs clearance, don’t wait until the last minute.

Same-day appointments available.

04/21/2026

Spring sports are here, and getting cleared isn’t just about a signature.

A sports physical makes sure it’s actually safe to play — from heart health to prior injuries.

If your child needs a sports physical, we take care of that here at Amen Family Medicine.

Sports physicals are $20, or included with your annual physical.
