Groton 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 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 offer a base for physicians like your Groton chiropractor to practice and Groton chiropractic patients to know 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 Groton chiropractic care at Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office to potentially prevent Groton back surgery for many.

In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of recent onset neck pain or cervical radiculopathy (arm pain) are presented:  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 telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice to keep active along with treatment.  (1) Good advice!

Shoreline Medical Services/ Hutter Chiropractic Office makes sure Groton patients are familiar with their spinal condition, understand the treatment plan to relieve the pain, and accept their role in getting, maintaining and supporting the relief so that they do not have to suffer with arm pain or neck pain any longer than they have to or have to experience Groton neck surgery.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons reveals that 76.3% of them implement the anterior cervical discectomy with fusion for cervical spine disc herniation surgeries. This means that they get at the cervical spine via the front of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach has more 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, fortunately, the surgeons seek a minimum of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient before they perform a surgery. (2) That offers Groton chiropractic care just enough time to lessen Groton neck pain.
