Understanding the Link between Cervical Disc Degeneration and Neck Pain

Updated: Jun 20

Understanding the Link between Cervical Disc Degeneration and Neck Pain


Research explores how degenerative , inflammatory problems can cascade to neck pain


The cervical intervertebral disc has long been considered a common source of neck pain


Degenerative cervical disc has a rich supply of nerve fibres and is susceptible to pain and provoked by disc stimulation


So what happens when inflammation occurs?

The onset of inflammation inside the degenerated disc is a trigger to induce different responses like cell senescence and apoptosis , as well as nerve and vascular i growth


The onset of DISCOGENIC PAIN is characterised by nerve fiber i growth into an otherwise a-neural tissue


Chiropractic has been shown with many studies that we can help with helping align the spine, help relax the muscles and reduce inflammation in a targeted area
