A member asked:
Can arthritis and degenerated discs in the back give you any symptoms like for example shortness of breath and arms and legs weakness?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Spine pain: Shortness of breath is not a typical symptom of a degenerated spine. This can be the sign of an underlying medical condition that should be evaluated by a physician. The weakness in the arms and legs can be a sign of spinal cord compression or related to an underlying medical condition , which should be evaluated by a physician.
