Plainville Chiropractic Non-Surgical Relief for a Disc Herniation in the Neck

July 04, 2017

Guidelines are part of healthcare today. There are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage arthritis to kidney disease to neck pain. There are best-evidence guidelines for most professions from allergy and immunology to urology. Chiropractic care is in the mix as is back pain and neck pain management. Such guidelines offer a base for physicians like your Plainville chiropractor to practice and Plainville chiropractic patients to recognize that  they are being treated with the best evidenced care. Healthcare guidelines keep evolving, and guidelines for neck pain due to cervical disc herniation indicate an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for Plainville chiropractic care at Layden Chiropractic to potentially prevent Plainville back surgery for many.

In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of new onset neck pain or cervical radiculopathy (arm pain) are presented:  Supervised exercise with manual therapy. Exercise and manual therapy before medicine for neck pain. Acupuncture for neck pain. Traction for cervical radiculopathy. NSAIDs (oral or topical) and tramadol after careful consideration for both neck pain and cervical radiculopathy.  The guidelines also propose telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to keep active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice! Layden Chiropractic is committed to Plainville chiropractic patient education. Layden Chiropractic wants to be sure Plainville patients are familiar with their spinal condition, understand the treatment plan to relieve the pain, and embrace their role in achieving, keeping and supporting the relief so that they don’t have to suffer with arm pain or neck pain any longer than they have to or need to experience Plainville neck surgery.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons shows30 that 76.3% of them implement the anterior cervical discectomy with fusion for cervical spine disc herniation surgeries. This means that they get at the cervical spine through the front of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach brings with it more risk for complications than just an anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons expect it to be more helpful for arm pain relief. In view of the risk, luckily, the surgeons look for a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient before they perform a surgery. (2) That gives Plainville chiropractic care just enough time to relieve Plainville neck pain.

(3) In 10 weeks, Cox Technic produces a favorable clinical outcome that keeps going! A 2 year follow up with a patient who had a C6-7 cervical disc herniation with radiculopathy arm pain showed that subjective and objective signs or relief were steady. (4) In the conservative medical care arena, 83% patients with symptomatic cervical spine disc herniation with radiculopathy find relief in about 24 to 36 months with the most progress toward pain relief occurring in the first 4 to 6 months.
