What Is Degenerative Disc Disease?

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is a common condition affecting the spine. Despite the term, it's not actually a disease, but rather the result of natural wear and tear on the discs in your spine, which act as shock absorbers. Over time, these discs can deteriorate, causing sharp, ongoing pain in the back, neck, and other areas that often worsens with certain movements, like bending, lifting, or sitting.

If you're struggling with these symptoms, our specialists are here to help you find relief with spinal disc degeneration treatment. Reach out to Commonwealth Pain & Spine Pikeville today by calling (606) 934-0240 or contacting us online.

What Causes Degenerative Disc Disease?

Aging is the most common cause of degenerative disc disease, but other factors, like genetics, previous injuries, and lifestyle choices, may also play a role. Typical symptoms include:

• Pain that increases with activities like sitting, bending, or twisting
• Relief when lying down or moving
• Pain that may extend into the buttocks, upper thighs, or lower back
