back pain treatment

Is back pain your problem too? We bring you a selection of several of the main methods of treating back pain. Finally, we also present a method in which we specialize and which can also relieve you of long-lasting problems or help you prevent them.

CALM CURES BACK PAIN

Bed rest is sometimes prescribed for patients with back pain. For a minor problem, this is an effective treatment for back pain problems. Longer-term bed rest is, however, associated with a longer convalescence. The risk of depression, blood clots in the venous system of the lower limbs and muscle wasting increases.

PHYSICAL THERAPY

Physical therapy is another common form of treatment for back pain. Proper stretching and stabilization exercises can improve spinal function and support, but may not address the underlying cause of pain. Proper use of therapeutic exercise is an important part of successful spinal rehabilitation, but not before the actual problem causing the back pain is treated.

REMEDIES FOR BACK PAIN

Medicines, which can be administered orally or intravenously in the form of injections or infusions, act against back pain, inflammation, and reduce increased muscle tension. However, this is only temporary. This method does not treat the cause of the pain, it only relieves the symptoms. The risk is the administration of ever stronger doses of drugs and the long-term difficulties of the patient. Another non-negligible risk of long-term drug administration is the deterioration of kidney and liver function. It follows that for back pain problems, drugs are a good helper, but if possible, it is better to avoid them and choose an effective treatment for which they are not needed.

ACUPUNCTURE

In the Czech Republic, acupuncture is an alternative method used to treat chronic and acute back pain. It is a treatment method in which needles are inserted into the patient's acupuncture points. According to Chinese medicine, these points lie on pathways of energy that we call meridians. Acupuncture in this indication is used to relieve muscle tension and pain. The disadvantage of this treatment is that it relieves your pain, but it does not treat the cause of the back pain itself. The cause of the back pain can therefore increase further and the risks associated with it.

BACK OPERATION

You should always carefully consider getting surgery for back pain. This is because it carries a greater risk than most other procedures. This method is suitable after all other available treatment options have been exhausted, or when you are at risk of serious consequences such as paralysis, sphincter failure or others. The greater part of spine surgery is dedicated to degenerative diseases of the spine and includes microsurgical techniques and techniques such as fusion instrumentation and the latest methods of dynamic spine stabilization, including intervertebral disc replacements in the cervical and lumbar regions. Therefore, surgery is an effective means that treats the cause of back pain directly, but it carries high risks and therefore it is good to try to find another option first. One of the few alternatives for serious problems causing back pain is spinal decompression therapy, which is described below.

TRACTION

Traction techniques are also used to combat back pain. The most frequently used are mechanical or motorized traction, manual traction (it is performed by a therapist), and auto traction (the patient controls the strength of traction himself, by grasping and pulling the handles at the head of the traction table). Less common forms are also available, such as underwater and gravity traction. Lumbar traction uses a belt that is placed around the lower ribcage. The duration and level of force applied through this band can be alternating or continuous. Only with motor traction is the force stable. The traction force of other traction techniques is determined by the total weight or strength of the patient or therapist. When applying traction force, the muscle tension in the lumbar area, the skin tension and the tension of the abdominal press must be taken into account for each patient individually.
