I got my x-ray a few months ago, it showed disks in my lower back being to close to each other, after regular visits to the chiropractor I got rid of the pain, but my back is too stiff, can anyone tell me if the disks can be spaced out with exercise, can I get my back flexible again or is this thing perminent. Any help would be apriciated thanks.
