What can i do for degenerating discs in my lower back?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Depends on symptoms: If they are not hurting, just be healthy, exercise, and avoid spinal stress. If they are hurting, besides the recommendations in my first sentence, you may need anti-inflammatories (if tolerated), and a formal course of rehabilitative therapy care, and even a spine specialist evaluation to see if needs even something more.
