Guidelines are part of healthcare today. There
are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage arthritis
to kidney disease to back 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 Baton Rouge chiropractor to practice and
Baton Rouge chiropractic patients to see
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 point to
an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for
Baton Rouge chiropractic care at Spine & Sports Rehab Center to potentially prevent
Baton Rouge back surgery for many.
In Europe, national guidelines for the non-surgical care of new
start 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 recommend
telling the patient about warning signs, prognosis and advice
to keep active along with treatment.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons shows30 that
76.3% of them use the anterior cervical discectomy with
fusion for cervical spine disc herniation surgeries. This means that they reach the cervical spine via the front
of the neck, not the back. This surgical approach has 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 seek a minimum
of 8 to 12 weeks of radicular arm pain in a patient in advance of a neck surgery. (2) That gives
Baton Rouge chiropractic care just enough time to ease
Baton Rouge neck pain.
