Fort Wayne Conservative Care Gives Back Pain Reliefand MRI Images Show it

Back surgery. Non-surgical care. What’s the best solution for back pain and leg pain?

Medicine notes that back pain relief is possible conservatively! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is happy to see this latest back pain treatment study. Researchers tracked patients with lumbar disc herniations (most at L4-5 and L5-S1). These patients averaged 38 years old, just the age when that really bad back pain episode seems to come on according to spinal researchers. These patients hurt with low back pain and sciatica that extends into one or both legs. Several patients had previously tried physiotherapy and other medical treatment unsuccessfully before this intervention. (1) Fort Wayne back pain patients at Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc have read this story before…or lived it! We notice that so many of the Fort Wayne back pain patients coming to the office have tried many other ways to free themselves from their back pain. All they want is relief now.  Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc is poised to give it.

These researchers share that conservative medical care (like bed rest and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, muscle relaxants, gels) granted enough time helped these back pain patients’ pain. They did not have to have back surgery. Their MRI studies even show improvement as they improved symptomatically and experienced relief of their back pain and sciatic leg pain. (1) Note that the size of the disc herniation on MRI does not influence clinical outcome. Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc says this continuously! Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc posted many articles about this very topic: the size of the disc herniation does not matter! Not early back surgery or conservative care for back pain relief showed any significant difference in outcomes. (2)  The average time for patients to recuperate from their back pain symptoms due to lumbar disc herniation was 13.6 months (give or take 5.4 months). (1) Fortunately for our Fort Wayne back pain patients, Cox Chiropractic Medicine Inc looks for at least 50% relief of pain in the first 30 days and discovers that 91% of our patients get relief in 3 months. (3) The authors share this warning with their colleagues that such relief is possible and should be taken into account when deciding whether to do back surgery if there are no signs for immediate surgical intervention.
