Williamson Chiropractic Non-Surgical Relief for a Disc Herniation in the Neck
Guidelines are part of healthcare today. There are best-evidence guidelines for everything from how to manage psoriasis to kidney 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 present a base for physicians like your Williamson chiropractor to practice and Williamson 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 point to an 8 to 12 week wait before surgical intervention which is just enough time for Williamson chiropractic care at Apple Country Chiropractic to potentially prevent Williamson 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.

A study of Dutch neurosurgeons shows30 that 76.3% of them implement 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 brings with it a higher risk for complications than just an 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 Williamson chiropractic care just enough time to relieve Williamson neck pain.
