Does degenerative disc disease really progress or does it stay the same?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
It can progress: Asit progresses it can become less symptomatic it's "worsening" on x-ray or MRI may not involve worse symptomsor any symptoms at all just because you have back pain and ddd on imaging doesn't mean it is the cause of your dback pain.
