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

Guidelines are the way of healthcare today. There are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage psoriasis 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 present a base for physicians like your Manahawkin chiropractor to practice and Manahawkin chiropractic patients to realize that  they are being treated with the best evidenced care. Healthcare guidelines keep evolving, and guidelines for neck pain due to cervical disc herniation point to an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for Manahawkin chiropractic care at Manahawkin Chiropractic Center to potentially thwart Manahawkin back surgery for many.

In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of new onset neck pain or cervical radiculopathy (arm pain) are shared:  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 informing the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to keep active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice! Manahawkin Chiropractic Center is committed to Manahawkin chiropractic patient education. Manahawkin Chiropractic Center wants to be sure Manahawkin patients know their spinal condition, comprehend the treatment plan to reduce pain, and embrace their role in achieving, maintaining and holding onto 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 undergo Manahawkin neck surgery.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons reveals that 76.3% of them use 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 has a higher risk for complications than a straightforward anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons believe it to be more effective for arm pain relief. Considering the risk, luckily, the surgeons look for a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient in advance of a neck surgery. (2) That offers Manahawkin chiropractic care just enough time to ease Manahawkin neck pain.

(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.
