Neck pain is a pain in the neck for many people. Whiplash injury or disc herniation or disc degeneration may all in any combination or soley be the culprits. Chiropractic care at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is generally useful in relieving the neck pain and even related arm pain for Fort Wayne neck pain patients. Some of our patients find us prior to selecting surgery for relief or seek us out after a neck surgery that may not have relieved the pain as expected.
Nowadays, some choose to undergo Fort Wayne neck surgery for a neck pain condition called cervical spondylotic myelopathy. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc sees many after such surgery, too. But researchers are exploring the optimal approaches for the best outcomes with neck surgery. They report that anterior (from the front of the neck) approaches work better it seems in younger neck pain patients who have less severe impairment and more focal pathology with cervical spondylotic myelopathy. But they also say that patients report good outcomes with anterior and posterior approaches as long as other factors are controlled. (2)
