Description

In the final installment of this comprehensive three-part series, Dr. Guy Annunziata takes a deeper dive into the pathological progression of disc degeneration, equipping chiropractors with the knowledge to distinguish between normal aging and clinically significant disc disease.

This course reviews the hallmarks of normal disc aging, then explores the key differences between age-related changes and degenerative disc disease (DDD). You'll also gain insight into internal disc disruptions (IDDs) and the emerging understanding of nerve ingrowth—a key contributor to discogenic pain.

By bridging anatomical changes with clinical relevance, this course helps you more accurately assess disc conditions and develop effective, patient-specific care strategies.

In this course, you’ll learn to:

Differentiate between normal disc aging and degenerative disc disease

Identify signs and implications of internal disc disruptions (IDDs)

Understand the role of nerve ingrowth in chronic discogenic pain

Apply this knowledge to improve diagnostic clarity and care planning

Close the loop on disc pathology—and strengthen your role in conservative spinal care.
