Dealing With Back or Neck Pain From a Disc Issue?

Problems involving the spinal discs can affect how you move, work, exercise, and enjoy your everyday life. You may experience localized pain in your back or neck, stiffness, or discomfort that travels into an arm or leg depending on the location and nature of the disc problem.

Disc issues can develop for different reasons and may range from mild changes that cause few symptoms to conditions that create significant discomfort or affect movement. If you’ve been told you have a bulging or herniated disc, or you’re experiencing symptoms that may be related to your spine, understanding your individual condition is an important first step.

At Victory Spinal Care, we provide personalized chiropractic care in Bixby, OK. Dr. Blake Smith and Dr. Evlyn Smith take the time to understand your symptoms, health history, and goals before determining what approach to care may be appropriate for you.

Understanding Spinal Disc Problems

The discs between the vertebrae of your spine act as cushions and help your spine absorb everyday stress while allowing it to move. Over time, or following an injury, changes can occur within these discs.

Some common disc-related concerns include:

  • Bulging discs
  • Herniated or slipped discs
  • Degenerative disc changes
  • Disc-related neck pain
  • Disc-related lower back pain
  • Pain or other symptoms that travel into an arm or leg

Symptoms can vary depending on the location and severity of the disc issue. Some people experience localized pain or stiffness, while others may experience tingling, numbness, or discomfort that extends into another part of the body.

Because similar symptoms can have different causes, an appropriate evaluation is important before determining what type of care may be right for you.

Personalized Care for Disc Issues in Bixby, OK

When dealing with a disc issue, people may consider a variety of approaches, including medication, physical therapy, exercise, or other forms of care. The right approach can depend on the individual’s condition, symptoms, health history, and goals.

At Victory Spinal Care, our doctors take a personalized approach rather than assuming every disc problem should be handled the same way. Your care may incorporate chiropractic techniques such as upper cervical chiropractic, diversified adjustments, or Activator technique, along with other supportive therapies offered at our Bixby location.
