THE FIRST DOCTOR SEEN AFFECTS THE CARE ROUTE

The cost of chiropractic care for the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation patients accounts for just 2% of total money spent on back pain. A test of conservative non-operative care is counseled prior to surgery for patients who have lumbar disc herniation. (1) Approximately 42.7% of workers first seeing a surgeon had surgery in contrast to only 1.5% of those who saw a chiropractor first. (2)

MULTIDISCIPLINARY OVERVIEW COMMITTEES REDUCE SURGERY

First-time disc surgeries reduced by about two thirds for patients treated in a multidisciplinary facility. (3) When cases of patients recommended for a fusion back surgery were evaluated by a multidisciplinary committee, non-surgical care was endorsed for just 58%. The fusion surgical approach recommended  for 28% of the cases was changed. (4) Another multidisciplinary overview resulted in changed approaches|was modified to care for back pain without lumbar spinal fusion. Exercise, psychological therapy, rehabilitation, spinal manipulation, massage and acupuncture for chronic low back pain is still to be championed in the spine research. Pain reduction is better than functional improvement. (5) Sitka back pain patients are seeking less pain, so this is outstanding!

SEEING THE MIND’S ROLE IN BACK PAIN

In dealing with Sitka back pain, care givers – including surgeons – are seeing the role the mind has in the care of chronic pain patients who have a multitude contributing factors. Their pain is not as simple as stating that he or she has a disc herniation. Various factors contribute to pain and effort in beating that pain. The body and mind react via the sympathetic nervous system. Doctors who can see and help enable a patient to see a positive response to care, to visualize a lessening of symptoms rather than focus on them may help improve back pain patients’ viewpoint and future.
