Disc Degeneration May Co-Exist in Lower Back and Neck

Have a degenerated disc in the lower back? You may also suffer a degenerated disc in your neck. Hollstrom & Associates Inc finds this is most often the case in its Largo chiropractic practice and relieves both neck pain and lower back pain due to a degenerated disc.

Degenerative disc disease diminishes the disc's flexibility and size. This results in a 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 one part of the spine it seems.

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

You need not worry you if you have lower back pain and haven't had an accompanying neck pain. Hollstrom & Associates Inc is fully experienced in relieving back pain due to disc degeneration. For example, Hollstrom & Associates Inc treats lower back pain patients with herniations and degenerated discs - as well as neck pain patients who have the same - all the time in Largo.
