Degenerative disc disease is a medical term that refers to the anatomical changes of the spinal segments that occur from the degeneration or osteoarthritis. These changes many also be the result of injuries, aging, and the effects of gravity.
Although many people have no symptoms of degenerative disc disease for a long time, its’s likely that as the condition advances, there will be a pain. DDD is much like a cavity that starts in a tooth without any noticeable discomfort until it has advanced considerably. Chiropractic care is an excellent way to maintain your health as you age.
