What are the most common causes of back pain for Richwood residents?
Back pain near Richwood frequently stems from herniated discs at L4-L5 or L5-S1, lumbar muscle strains from shift and service work, degenerative disc disease from years of physical labor, and impact injuries from collisions at the I-20 and US-165 interchange. Poor posture from long commutes on US-165 and prolonged sitting also contribute significantly.

I hurt my back in an accident near the I-20 and US-165 junction — what should I do?
Seek chiropractic evaluation as soon as possible. Back injuries from I-20 and US-165 collisions — common near Richwood — can involve disc herniations that worsen without treatment. Dr. Gregory Mayfield, a former police officer who worked wrecks on these same roads, treats auto-accident back injuries and coordinates directly with your insurer and attorney. In most cases you pay nothing out of pocket while your claim is active. Call (318) 323-7246 for a same-day appointment at 1400 Royal Ave, Monroe, 10 minutes up US-165.
How long does back pain treatment typically take?
Many Richwood patients see meaningful improvement within four to eight visits. Acute lumbar strains often resolve in two to four weeks. Disc injuries and chronic conditions typically require eight to twelve weeks of adjustments, spinal decompression, and targeted rehabilitation. Dr. Mayfield outlines your specific timeline at the first appointment so you know exactly what to expect.
