Degenerative Disc Disease Treatment
As you age, the discs between your vertebrae naturally wear down. They lose water, become thinner, and don’t cushion as well as they used to. This is degenerative disc disease, and it’s a normal part of getting older. But that doesn’t mean you have to live with constant pain.
When your discs wear down, it can cause pain, stiffness, and mobility issues. The pain might be in your lower back, your neck, or both. It might be a constant ache, or it might flare up when you move in certain ways. Some people have mild symptoms. Others have more significant pain that affects their daily life. Dr. Duren has helped many people in Cartersville manage degenerative disc disease over the past 20 years. She understands how disc degeneration affects your body and works to improve function, reduce pain, and help you stay active despite the changes.
