The frustration of Eugene back
pain: It hurts. It disrupts life. It doesn’t always
react positively to the best-intended care programs: back surgery
or conservative. That is why Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic
exists. Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic is here to help Eugene back
pain and neck pain patients discover an alternative that works
for their Eugene back pain relief goal.
BACK PAIN OPTIONS
There are lots of Eugene back pain
relief plan options! New research shares
some fascinating findings. Let’s look at
opioids and Tylenol for back pain relief. There is no difference
in low back pain relief and radicular extremity pain (leg pain sciatica) relief
between using Tylenol and taking powerful opioid
drugs. (1) Melatonin defends the intervertebral disc’s
nucleus pulposus cells from apoptosis (cell death) and blocked
disc degeneration. (2) Melatonin does this. There’s
hope for disc degeneration’s reversal. And what about this report? Spontaneous
resorption of a lumbar herniated disc seen on MRI was observed
in all of 9 patients who had back pain and sciatic leg
pain, refused back surgery, and had
no motor deficit! It required a mean of about 8.7 months. Clinical
relief with conservative treatment came about in a mean of just 5.7
weeks. (3) That is rousing news! The discs
resorbed.
BACK SURGERY DECISIONS
What makes a patient pick Eugene back surgery over other options? The patient’s ideas
about the treatment may be based on insufficient
information. The time required for a patient to decide
may be hurried because of scheduling when the patient is
one who needs time to really think about the decision.
The patient’s not wanting to distress the system, disappoint
the healthcare provider by refusing recommended treatment. The
patient’s past experiences with treatment options as chosen
by relatives or friends and the resultant good or bad outcomes.
Choosing back surgery or a non-surgical treatment plan for low back and/or leg
pain due to a disc herniation is a big, complex decision. (4)

well, that Rethwill Chiropractic Clinic has helped many Eugene
