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 part of it all as is back pain and
neck pain management. Such guidelines present
a base for physicians like your Oxford chiropractor to practice and
Oxford chiropractic patients to see
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
Oxford chiropractic care at Satterwhite Chiropractic to potentially thwart
Oxford back surgery for many.
In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of recent
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! Satterwhite Chiropractic is committed to
Oxford chiropractic patient education. Satterwhite Chiropractic makes sure Oxford patients know their spinal
condition, understand the treatment plan to reduce
pain, and embrace their role in getting, maintaining
and supporting the relief so that they do not
have to experience arm pain or neck pain any longer than they
have to or need to experience Oxford 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 requires
them to reach the cervical spine via 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 think it to
be more helpful 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 perform
a surgery. (2) That gives
Oxford chiropractic care just enough time to ease
Oxford neck pain.
In 8 weeks, Oxford chiropractic care at
Satterwhite Chiropractic with Cox Technic can amaze! 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. (3)
In 10 weeks, Cox Technic produces a good
clinical outcome that lasts! 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 steady. (4) In conservative medicine, 83% patients with
symptomatic cervical spine disc herniation with radiculopathy recover in about 24 to 36 months with the most progress toward pain
relief occurring in the first 4 to 6 months. (5) [companyname]]
