As people age, the likelihood that they may experience spine issues increases. One condition that many patients develop over time is known as degenerative disc disease. How does one know if they may be suffering from degenerative disc disease?
Patients who find movements like bending over, reaching, or twisting to be uncomfortable may have degenerative disc disease. Extreme pain in the back, legs, neck, and/or arms during these movements is another sign that this condition could be present.
At our office, we offer surgical and non-surgical treatments for degenerative disc disease. Learn more about the symptoms of this condition from Dr. Kevin James, a board-certified orthopedic surgeon serving the Dallas area.
