Understanding Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative disc disease is a common condition that affects the spine's discs, the cushions between the vertebrae. Over time, these discs can wear down, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility. Symptoms can vary from mild to severe and may include:
- Neck pain: Pain in the neck, sometimes radiating to the shoulders, arms, or hands.
- Back pain: Pain in the lower back, often worse with sitting, bending, or lifting.
- Sciatica: Pain, numbness, or weakness that radiates down the back of the leg, often caused by a herniated disc pressing on a nerve in the lower back.
- Numbness or tingling: A sensation of numbness or tingling in the hands or feet.
- Muscle weakness: Weakness in the muscles of the arms, hands, legs, or feet.
Other symptoms of degenerative disc disease may include:
- Stiffness: Difficulty moving the neck or back, especially in the morning.
- Reduced range of motion: Difficulty bending, twisting, or rotating the neck or back.
- Headaches: Headaches that may be caused by neck pain.
