Guidelines are the way of healthcare today. There
are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage arthritis
to heart disease to back 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 New Roads chiropractor to practice and
New Roads 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 point to
an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for
New Roads chiropractic care at New Roads Chiropractic Center to potentially thwart
New Roads back surgery for many.
In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of new
start 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 recommend
telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice
to keep active along with treatment.
(1) Good advice! New Roads Chiropractic Center is committed to
New Roads chiropractic patient education. New Roads Chiropractic Center makes sure New Roads patients are familiar with their spinal
condition, understand the treatment plan to relieve the
pain, and accept their role in achieving, maintaining
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 have to experience New Roads 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 requires
them to reach the cervical spine through the front
of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach brings with it a
higher risk for complications than just an
anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons expect it to
be more helpful for arm pain relief. Considering
the risk, luckily, the surgeons seek a minimum
of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient in advance of a neck surgery. (2) That gives
New Roads chiropractic care just enough time to relieve
New Roads neck pain.

review of 39 patients treated with Cox Technic protocols for cervical spine in
patients with cervical radiculopathy (arm pain), only 13.2 treatment visits

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 revealed
that subjective and objective signs or relief were stable. (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 happening in the first 4 to 6 months. (5) [companyname]]
