accupuncture (sp)

Well, I was in an accident on Jan 5th....where the driver lost control in the first snow here...and we slid into the ditch and me in the backseat behind driver in an older ford bronco took the big blow sliding into this huge tree...I was all drunk..and totally blacked out cause we all walked away and a friend picked me up and i got a ticket in the ER....and the sheriffs were pricks and my story was way off....but anywho....i've been doing therapy since. they orignially thought i punctured my lung and spleen..but now it's my left shoulder and lower back that are still in pain. So I went to a new doctor for another opinion had like 10 more xrays gotta have an mri....the crazy thing was he said he could try accupuncture by putting the needles in my left ear....which would result in less pain in my left shoulder.....is this for real? and why can't a doctor just tell me the problem and solve it besides this crazy stuff....but needles in my ear makin my shoulder better...
sorry...dumb post lol just can't stop thinkin bout needles in my ear
