Easley Non-Surgical Care Provides Back Pain Reliefand MRI Images Show it

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

Medicine notices that back pain relief is possible conservatively! Young Chiropractic is excited to see this latest back pain treatment study. A group of medical doctors monitored patients with lumbar disc herniations (most at L4-5 and L5-S1). These patients averaged 38 years old, just the age that spinal research reports as average for back pain sufferers to have a bad case of back pain that’s been building for years. These patients suffered with low back pain and sciatica that extends into one or both legs. Many patients had already tried physiotherapy and other medical treatment to no avail before this trial. (1) Easley back pain patients at Young Chiropractic have heard this story before…or lived it! We learn that so many of the Easley back pain patients seeking care at this chiropractic office have attempted many other tactics to free themselves from their back pain. All they want is relief now.  Young Chiropractic is poised to give it.

These researchers report 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) Notice that the size of the disc herniation on MRI doesn’t influence clinical outcome. Young Chiropractic says this all the time! Young Chiropractic posted many articles about this very topic: the size of the disc herniation doesn’t matter! Neither early back surgery nor conservative care for back pain relief showed any significant outcome differences. (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 Easley back pain patients, Young Chiropractic pursues 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 caution their colleagues that such relief is possible and should be considered when deciding a potential back surgery if there are no signs for immediate surgical intervention. (1) Yes! Young Chiropractic helps Easley back pain and leg pain patients when they want non-surgical care for their pain.
