Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) is a condition where the intervertebral discs — the cushions between the bones (vertebrae) of your spine — gradually wear down over time. This natural aging process can cause discs to lose height, flexibility, and cushioning ability.
As discs degenerate, they may cause chronic back or neck pain, stiffness, and sometimes nerve compression, leading to pain radiating to the arms or legs. Although called a “disease,” it’s mostly related to age and wear and tear, but can also result from injury or repetitive stress.
Below is a clear, patient-friendly table of treatment options — highlighted in green & gold:
| Treatment Type | Description | When Recommended | Benefits |
|---|---|---|---|
| Medications | Pain relievers, anti-inflammatory drugs, and muscle relaxants | Mild to moderate pain | Alleviates pain & inflammation |
| Physical Therapy | Exercises to strengthen core muscles and improve spine flexibility | Early or moderate disease | Reduces pain, improves function |
| Lifestyle Changes | Weight management, ergonomic adjustments, and avoiding heavy lifting | All stages | Slows progression, reduces symptoms |
| Epidural Steroid Injections | Corticosteroid injections near affected nerves to decrease inflammation | Persistent nerve-related pain | Temporary pain relief |
| Minimally Invasive Surgery | Procedures like discectomy or spinal fusion for severe cases | Severe pain unresponsive to conservative care | Stabilizes spine, relieves nerve pressure |
| Regenerative Medicine | Emerging treatments using PRP or stem cells to promote disc repair | Selected cases, experimental | Potential for tissue healing |
