Drug Combinations for Largo 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 Largo back pain or neck pain disappear right now? You aren’t alone! Hollstrom & Associates Inc can empathize. Pain disrupts our flow. Back pain keeps many Largo 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 bothers you or someone close to you, visit Hollstrom & Associates Inc for relief and chiropractic tips about pain management without drugs when or if drugs are not doing what you need or are not in your treatment plan.
NOT WELL SUPPORTED: DRUG COMBINATIONS
Having drugs in the treatment plan may be successful for some back pain sufferers and not others. Pills may give relief for a few hours, days, weeks, months or not at all. 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 lack of studies and overall low quality of evidence, that supports combining drugs for low back pain and sciatica. Additionally, the risk of adverse effects is less with single drug therapy over a combination. (1) Have you had a let-down from prescribed medications for your back pain? It’s ok. Hollstrom & Associates Inc works with back pain sufferers like you.
RECOMMENDED: SPINAL MANIPULATION
Hollstrom & Associates Inc’s use of the Cox® Technic System of Spinal Pain Management which incorporates a specific type of spinal manipulation has helped countless Largo back pain sufferers realize relief of their back pain. Spinal manipulation is recommended as first line treatment of back pain by the American College of Physicians and the American Board of Family Physicians. (2) Cox® Technic has demonstrated in federally funded spinal research projects to drop intradiscal pressures, widen the intervertebral canal area, and improve disc height. (3,4) In clinical studies, Cox® Technic has revealed that back pain relief happens in 29 days and 12 visits. Of course, more severe disc herniations and spinal stenosis may take more time than these averages, but relief comes. (5) For many back pain sufferers, 50% relief would be most welcome. What about you?
RESEARCH SUPPORTED: CHONDROITIN SULFATE, TURMERIC AND CURCUMIN
To heighten the relief and help our Largo back pain patients, Hollstrom & Associates Inc incorporated supplements into the Largo 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. Hollstrom & Associates Inc is ready to help you find the right combination of treatment approaches to reduce your back pain.
