We all age. Our bodies age. Our finger nails age. Our spinal
discs age. Now, that is something your
Pensacola chiropractor can help with though!
Spinal discs show aging once they start
degenerating. Disc degeneration in a Pensacola spine may first be discovered
when you feel some back pain. Occasionally, disc degeneration proceeds ignored
until years afterward. New research suggests
that disc degeneration for any of us in Pensacola may begin
as early as the teen years. Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center is all about relieving
any pain and averting any degeneration possible with nutrition
and Pensacola chiropractic care.
Pensacola DISC DEGENERATION AND AGING: 2nd to 5th
Decades of Life
In spine radiology, the Pfirrmann classification differentiates
levels of disc degeneration. Grade 1 is less degeneration. Grade 5 is really
bad degeneration. Researchers examined the MRI
images of 653 patients of all ages. Grade 3 degeneration is very common
in those in their 2nd to 5th decades of life. It is stated
to be “natural” to see disc degeneration start in the 2nd decade of life. (1) That signifies
that disc degeneration begins in the teen years of life!? Does
that shock any of our Pensacola chiropractic patients? Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center
isn’t shocked, necessarily, but Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center is prepared
to help the teen Pensacola back pain sufferer. Do any Pensacola teens live at home
with you? Do they ever mention having back
pain or neck pain?
Pensacola DISC DEGENERATION AND AGING: 6th Decade
of Life
Grade 4 was more common in the sixth decade
of life. (1) Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center takes care of many older
patients with chronic low back pain in which disc degeneration plays a role. Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center knows
that older adults with back pain explain that it has affected
their life, interfered with their social and recreational
outlets, messed with their family relationships. (2) Back
pain disrupts their plans for retirement, housing,
health, and independence. (3) It is unpleasant.
Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center understands this, empathizes with our older
Pensacola back pain sufferers, and offers Cox Technic to help whose
goal is at least 50% relief in 30 days with many patients acquiring
50% sooner than that and with a higher
percent of relief. Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center celebrates with our patients
as they regain some independence and back pain relief.
WHAT TO DO
Feed your discs early and often. Disc degeneration
starts in the 2nd decade of life! More and more news evolves about the value of nutrition. Two influential
nutrients for discs are chondroitin sulfate and glucosamine sulfate. These two
sulfates feed the disc and potentially avert
degeneration and even stimulate regeneration of the disc’s
cartilage. Ask your Pensacola chiropractor for more details.
Pensacola Spinal Rehab Center supports preventative
care any time possible!
