Millville 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 arthritis to heart disease to back 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 Millville chiropractor to practice and Millville chiropractic patients to know 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 Millville chiropractic care at Wilson Family Chiropractic to potentially thwart Millville back surgery for many.

In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of recent 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 advise telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to be active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice! Wilson Family Chiropractic is committed to Millville chiropractic patient education. Wilson Family Chiropractic wants to be sure Millville patients are familiar with their spinal condition, understand the treatment plan to relieve the pain, and embrace their role in achieving, keeping and holding onto the relief so that they do not have to suffer with arm pain or neck pain any longer than they have to or need to undergo Millville neck surgery.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons reveals that 76.3% of them utilize 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 a straightforward anterior cervical discectomy, but the surgeons expect it to be more helpful for arm pain relief. Considering the risk, fortunately, 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 allows Millville chiropractic care just enough time to relieve Millville neck pain.
