ACUTE PAIN

What causes acute neck or back pain?
Acute pain by definition is a symptom of less than three months in duration. It can be intense pain which can be caused by trauma to the neck or back, wear and tear of the spine, or varying stresses that can cause injury of the tissues surrounding it.

How does Strand Spine Institute treat acute neck and back pain?
Managing physician Dr. Neil Fico is highly skilled and educated and has over 20 years of experience treating different types of acute spinal injuries. He will begin by assessing your acute pain and taking a complete history and thorough spinal examination. Spinal x-rays will be taken and a sit down report of your examination and x-ray findings will be performed. If further diagnostic evaluation is necessary, to determine the cause of your pain a referral will be given.

Dr. Fico will then determine the best course of care for your specific neck or back condition.

At Strand Spine Institute we offer a number of treatment types which enables Dr. Fico to select the best care of your back or neck injuries. From K-Laser therapy which treats acute pain and swelling due to acute ligament, tendon, or disc injuries. We also offer DRX 9000 non-surgical spinal disc decompression which treats pain and injury of the spinal discs and nerve caused by back or neck disc bulge or herniation. Dr. Fico will explain your condition and recommend the best course of care to treat your acute back or neck pain.

SPINAL DISC

What is a bulging or herniated disc?
Different terms may be used to describe a spinal disk injury. A bulging disc (protrusion) occurs when the annulus or outside layers of the disc remains intact, but forms an outpouching that can press on the spinal nerves causing pain. A herniated disc (also called a ruptured disc) occurs when the disc annulus, cracks, or ruptures, allowing the gel-filled nucleus (disc center) to squeeze out.

What are the symptoms?
Symptoms of a disc protrusion (bulge) or herniation vary greatly depending on the severity of the injury, and the location of the disc in the spine. You may feel pain like an electric shock in your back, neck, arms, or legs. It can increase when standing, walking, sitting, or bending. Sometimes the pain is accompanied by tingling or numbness of the arms, hands, legs, and feet. If the disc injury is pressing on nerves in areas that affect certain organs it can alter normal body function which requires immediate medical attention.

CHIROPRACTIC CARE CAN HELP

Chiropractic works by making carefully placed adjustments to realign your spine. These adjustments allow the muscle tissues to properly support the spine and vital neurological processes that occur within it. When the spine is able to function without interference, the body is better able to facilitate healing, thereby relieving pain and restoring health in a variety of ways.
