How do i rehab a degenerative disc in my lower back? i'm 61 and lift and run...female

Core strengthening: It is generally felt that a program of exercise in which the core is strengthened can dramatically improve the symptoms of degenerative disc disease by giving support to that disc. That is the basis for most physical therapy programs for back pain. Thank you.
