Chiropractic Management of Postsurgical Lumbar Spine Pain
Postsurgical Lumbar Spine Pain Relief
After undergoing spinal surgery some individuals experience mild to debilitating postsurgical spinal pain. This is a potential side effect of going under the knife. Researchers recently evaluated the success of CONSERVATIVE chiropractic care in managing postsurgical spinal pain in these patients. The researchers reviewed 32 cases of chiropractic care delivered to patients suffering postsurgical lumbar spine pain. Patients in the study were treated with chiropractic care for a minimum of 2 weeks and had undergone pre and post-treatment pain measure evaluations to determine the overall change in their pain levels. Findings show the mean pain score was lowered from 6.4 to 2.3 out of 10 after their course of chiropractic care. Pain reduction was most remarkable in patients who underwent a surgery that combined lumbar discectomy, fusion and/or laminectomy, with an average pain reduction of 5.7 of 10. Notably, NO adverse events were reported for any of these postsurgical patients who received chiropractic care.
