A member asked:

Why do i have new symptoms but mri was ok except for degenerative joint disease in neck?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

DDD: I assume you mean degenerative disc disease. See a board certified pain specialist. Cervical traction and facet blocks will help. The problem is inflation in the joints of the neck due to degeneration of the discs.

Dr Ali and 3 doctors agreed
