Disc Degeneration May Co-Exist in Lower Back and Neck

Do you have a degenerated disc in the lower back? You may also suffer a degenerated disc in your neck. Spine & Sports Rehab Center finds this is most often the case in its Baton Rouge chiropractic practice and we strive to lessen both neck pain and lower back pain in part to a degenerated disc.

Degenerative disc disease diminishes the disc's flexibility and size. This leads to narrowing of the spinal canal area where the spinal cord and spinal nerves lay. Pain often results.

Degenerated discs appear to be a systemic problem. (1) Degenerative disc disease is not isolated to a single segment of the spine as it turns out.

Researchers examined patients with a lower back disc herniation to healthy volunteers. 98% of those with lower back disc herniations were discovered to have disc degeneration in their necks while only 88% of healthy volunteers did. (2)

Don't worry if you've experienced lower back pain and have not had any neck pain. Spine & Sports Rehab Center is quite experienced in relieving back pain due to disc degeneration. For example, Spine & Sports Rehab Center treats lower back pain patients with herniations and degenerated discs - as well as neck pain patients who have the same - all the time in Baton Rouge .
