neck disc pain spine pictureHave a degenerated disc in the lower back? You may also suffer a degenerated disc in your neck. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa finds this is most often the situation in its West Des Moines chiropractic practice and we strive to lessen both neck pain and lower back pain in part to a degenerated disc.

Degenerative disc disease reduces 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 one part of the spine as it turns out.

Researchers compared 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. Executive Chiropractic of Iowa is considerably experienced in relieving back pain due to disc degeneration.
