Manchester 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 psoriasis 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 Manchester chiropractor to practice and Manchester 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 Manchester chiropractic care at Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries to potentially prevent Manchester 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 suggest informing the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to be active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice! Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries is committed to Manchester chiropractic patient education. Manchester Chiropractic & Sports Injuries makes sure Manchester patients are familiar with their spinal condition, comprehend the treatment plan to reduce pain, and accept their role in achieving, maintaining and holding onto the relief so that they don’t have to experience arm pain or neck pain any longer than they have to or need to undergo Manchester 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 reach the cervical spine through the front of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach has more risk for complications than a straightforward anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons believe it to be more effective for arm pain relief. In view of the risk, fortunately, 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 Manchester chiropractic care just enough time to ease Manchester neck pain.

In a retrospective review of 39 patients treated with Cox Technic protocols for cervical spine in patients with cervical radiculopathy (arm pain), only 13.2 treatment visits were required to give patients arm pain relief.

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 stable. (4) In conservative medicine, 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.
