neck disc pain spine pictureDo you have a degenerated disc in the lower back? You may have the same in the neck. Dr. Butwell finds this is most often the situation in its Georgetown 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 leads to narrowing of the spinal canal area where the spinal cord and spinal nerves lay. Pain is a common outcome.

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 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)

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

Dr. Butwell succeeds in relieving neck pain and lower back pain due to degenerative disc disease with chiropractic Cox Technic. This safe, gentle spinal manipulation method to back pain relief drops intradiscal pressures and widens the spinal canal area. Its well-documented protocols may combine chiropractic treatment with other approaches like nutrition and exercise to control any pain due to disc degeneration.
