Drug Combinations for Severna Park Back Pain and Sciatica Not Effective

Wouldn’t it be nice to take a pill – or maybe better: a combination of pills! - and have your Severna Park back pain or neck pain vanish immediately? You aren’t alone! Back And Neck Care Center can understand. Pain disrupts our flow. Back pain keeps many Severna Park back pain sufferers from working and from playing and from doing activities of daily living that must be done (dressing, cooking, walking, doing laundry, etc.). When back pain affects you or a loved one or friend, come to Back And Neck Care Center for relief and chiropractic tips regarding pain management without drugs when or if drugs are not doing what you need or are not in your treatment plan.

NOT CLEARLY SUPPORTED: DRUG COMBINATIONS

Having drugs in the treatment plan may work for some back pain sufferers and not others. Pills may give relief for some hours, days, weeks, months or not any. A recent Cochrane Review, one of the most highly respected medical review systems in the world, stated that a drug combination, though may be better for more pain relief, for low back pain and sciatica is not supported. There is no clear evidence, as a matter of fact there is a shortage of studies and overall low quality of evidence, that backs combining drugs for low back pain and sciatica. Additionally, the risk of adverse effects is lower with single drug therapy over a combination. (1) Have you experienced a let-down from prescribed medications for your back pain? It is fine. Back And Neck Care Center cares for back pain patients like you.

RECOMMENDED: SPINAL MANIPULATION

Back And Neck Care Center’s use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which integrates a specialized form of spinal manipulation has helped countless Severna Park back pain sufferers realize relief of their back pain. Spinal manipulation is advocated as first line treatment of back pain by the American College of Physicians and the American Board of Family Physicians. (2) Cox® Technic has been shown in federally funded spinal research studies to reduce intradiscal pressures, widen the intervertebral canal area, and increase disc height. (3,4) Clinical studies about Cox® Technic have revealed that back pain relief comes in 29 days and 12 visits. Of course, more severe disc herniations and spinal stenosis may take more time than these averages, but relief happens. (5) For many back pain sufferers, 50% relief would be most welcome. How about you?        

RESEARCH SUPPORTED: CHONDROITIN SULFATE, TURMERIC AND CURCUMIN

To boost the relief and assist our Severna Park back pain patients, Back And Neck Care Center integrates supplements into the Severna Park chiropractic treatment plan. Natural substances like spinal disc-supporting chondroitin sulfate – shown to have “genuine anti-inflammatory properties (6) - and back pain-relieving turmeric and curcumin come in handy in the short-term as well as long term. Back And Neck Care Center is prepared to help you discover the right combination of treatment approaches to reduce your back pain.
