Degenerative disc disease is one of the most common causes of chronic back and neck pain. It happens when the soft discs between the vertebrae begin to wear down, often due to aging, repetitive movement, or injury. As these discs lose flexibility and cushioning, they can cause stiffness, nerve pressure, and discomfort that interfere with daily activities.
Dr. Joseph Brogna, DC, uses chiropractic care at South Shore Wellness Center to help manage symptoms of degenerative disc disease and improve spinal function. By gently restoring motion and relieving pressure on affected areas, he helps patients in Staten Island, New York, maintain a healthier spine.
