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.

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.

symptomatic cervical spine disc herniation with radiculopathy recover in about 24 to 36 months with the most progress toward pain
