McHenry Neuropathic Pain May Find Help with Chondroitin Sulfate and Chiropractic Care

September 18, 2018

Chiropractic and sciatic leg pain relief and back pain relief fit well together. McHenry chiropractic patients understand this! Including chondroitin sulfate to that combination enhances that relief for McHenry back pain and leg pain sufferers.  OrthoIllinois Chiropractic may recommend chondroitin supplementation to McHenry back pain patients’ chiropractic treatment plan for back pain relief and even neuropathic pain relief.

WHAT IS CHONDROITIN SULFATE?

Chondroitin sulfate is a essential part of cartilage that helps it resist compression and reduce inflammation especially in patients with osteoarthritis. The spinal disc is composed of cartilage. When there is disc degeneration, the disc loses its chondroitin sulfate content. Not a good thing!

McHenry NEUROPATHIC PAIN HELP

OrthoIllinois Chiropractic is always studying new research to help McHenry chiropractic patients! And it comes every day. One of the latest studies shares that repeated oral administration of chondroitin sulfate effectively reduces neuropathic pain due to sciatic nerve irritation by stopping spinal P38 MSPK phosphorylation and beta fiber activation. (1) What’s that mean in every day terms? Chondroitin sulfate may well decrease neuropathic pain caused by sciatica and felt as sciatic leg pain which does down to the feet. That is good news for anyone who has such neuropathic pain! Discoveries in this study even suggest that chondroitin sulfate stops tactile allodynia (pain from things that do not usually cause pain like a soft touch or even the weight of clothing on the skin). There’s a complex chemical process behind all of this that OrthoIllinois Chiropractic knows most McHenry chiropractic patients do not really want to get into (though some may and are invited to discuss it more with your McHenry chiropractor at an up-coming visit!), but this is exciting information.  It will be considered when developing the proper treatment plan for McHenry chiropractic patients’ back and leg pain relief at OrthoIllinois Chiropractic.
