What do you suggest if my doctor says i have degenerative disc disease what is that?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Just means that: your spine is not normal looking anymore. How abnormal is it? Hard to know without evaluation and examination of images. Really depends on what is going on and what can be done to help relieve any pain you may have. Everyone gets degenerative disc disease as we get older, just an FYI.
