While cervical disc pathology can unquestionably produce radiculopathy, many patients presenting with arm pain, paresthesia or perceived weakness do not exhibit the clinical behavior of true nerve-root compromise. In these cases, failure to differentiate the primary pain generator may lead to unnecessary spinal injections, nerve ablation procedures or surgical consultation despite limited likelihood of benefit.
2,500 Visitors to ChiroWeb Every Week!
Every week, more than 2,500 people visit ChiroWeb (that's over 130,000 visits per year). Most visitors are looking for DCs in their area; others are chiropractors checking out the DC Archives, Chiropractic Calendar, various other services, or just keeping in contact with other DCs.
When assessing activity at a website, the terms "visit" and "hit" must be differentiated. If you go to a website, whether you stay one minute or one hour, or whether you click on one page or multiple pages on that website, it counts as one visit.
A hit, however, measures file requests made in the logbook of a server computer. Hits can be misleading. For instance, if you view a page that has three graphic images, and click on each image, you register four "hits": one for going to that web page, and one for each image.
So while ChiroWeb logs approximately 25,000 hits each week, we feel that "visits" are more significant indications of traffic on a website. The number of visits to ChiroWeb tells us how many people are looking for chiropractic information on our site.
