What Is the Treatment for Adhesive Arachnoiditis? A Structured First-Line Protocol
This page describes the structure of a first-line treatment protocol for adhesive arachnoiditis. The protocol is organised around a foundational baseline of diet and exercise, combined with three defined treatment components — each targeting a distinct aspect of the condition's clinical burden.
The baseline establishes daily nutritional support and two categories of specific physical activity before any of the three components are applied. The three components then work in parallel to address the inflammatory and autoimmune process, to support tissue and neural regeneration, and to manage pain — including provision for acute flares and for central pain patterns.
