St Peters Chiropractic Non-Surgical Relief for a Disc Herniation in the Neck
Guidelines are part of healthcare today. There are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage arthritis to heart disease to neck pain. There are best-evidence guidelines for most professions from allergy and immunology to urology. Chiropractic care is part of it all as is back pain and neck pain management. Such guidelines offer a base for physicians like your St Peters chiropractor to practice and St Peters chiropractic patients to realize that they are being treated with the best evidenced care. Healthcare guidelines continue to evolve, 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 St Peters chiropractic care at Old Mill Chiropractic to potentially thwart St Peters back surgery for many.
In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of recent 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 recommend telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to keep active along with treatment. (1) Good advice!

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons shows30 that 76.3% of them utilize the anterior cervical discectomy with fusion for cervical spine disc herniation surgeries. This means that they reach the cervical spine through the front of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach has more risk for complications than just an anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons believe it to be more effective for arm pain relief. In view of the risk, luckily, the surgeons seek a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient before they operate. (2) That gives St Peters chiropractic care just enough time to ease St Peters neck pain.
