Abstract

Initial treatment options comprise rest, cervical immobilization, anti-inflammatory drugs (nonsteroidal and steroidal), pain relievers (including muscle relaxants and antiepileptics), and physical therapy (strength of recommendation [SOR]: B, cohort studies). As many as 60% of patients who fail initial treatments report long-term pain relief with epidural corticosteroid injections (SOR : C, case series).
