Guidelines are the way of healthcare today. There
are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage psoriasis
to heart 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 present
a base for physicians like your La Grande chiropractor to practice and
La Grande 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
La Grande chiropractic care at Paulette Hugulet, DC, LLC to potentially prevent
La Grande 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 advise
informing the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice
to keep active along with treatment.

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 get at 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 believe it to
be more helpful for arm pain relief. In view of
the risk, luckily, 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 offers
La Grande chiropractic care just enough time to relieve
La Grande neck pain.
