My MRI Shows Disc but I Don’t Have Pain?

Sometimes your MRI can show a disc bulge of herniation but there’s no pain because it’s not hitting a nerve.
  • It can be hitting a nerve area that doesn’t affect pain.
  • Like we said previously, it’s not hitting any nerves.

Here’s the bottom line- get checked because really those MRI findings need to be corrected with a physical exam and consultation. This is exactly what a doctor at CT Spine and Disc Center will be doing.

The Glastonbury Chiropractor is located in central Connecticut- CT Spine and Disc Center specializes in patients who suffer from sciatica, disc degeneration, bulging disc or herniated disc in the lumbar spine. For low back pain, neck pain, midback pain, headaches, fibromyalgia and more, chiropractic can help you. Call our Glastonbury office at 860-633-8756 to schedule an appointment and to see if you are a candidate for non surgical spinal decompression.

Low Back Posture – Does It Really Matter?

The answer is: Absolutely! The better your posture, the better your lumbopelvic alignment. If your lumbar spine and pelvis are in alignment then the nerves of the low back are free from pressure. This equals no back pain or leg discomfort.

Not only that – if something is out of alignment it will cause your gait to be altered; this can then cause muscle strain, and possibly hip and knee discomfort. Also, by then the pressure and inflammation is enough that you now have serious pressure on your low back or sciatic nerves.

Posture is always a window to your spine inside. If the lower back or pelvis appears “out of whack”, there is a good chance it is. Pain may not come right away, but you can bet it will eventually come.

Keep your posture maintained and you will prevent low back pain.
