Degenerative Disc Disease
As we grow older, spinal discs start degenerating due to everyday wear & tear. This can result in them losing their default shape and causing friction between the vertebrae, culminating in pain. This wear & tear of the spinal discs due to aging is called degenerative disc disease.
Symptoms
Common degenerative disc disease symptoms include the following:
-
Intense pain in the neck & back area that may come and go
-
Radiating pain felt in the lower back and buttocks
-
Weakness, numbness or tingling sensation in the arms/legs
-
Pain that gets severe with sitting, bending, twisting or lifting weights
Causes
​
Degenerative disc disease causes or risk factors generally comprise:
-
Losing water in the spinal discs as a result of ageing
-
Cracks/tears in the spinal discs due to daily movements or minor injuries
-
Severe injuries, like those caused by a fall from a steep height
-
Regularly engaging in physically demanding activities
-
Gender (women have a higher probability of experiencing symptoms)
-
Being overweight or obese
-
Regular smoking
Diagnosis
​
Primary diagnosis of degenerative disc disease usually involves healthcare professionals enquiring about medical history and symptoms being experienced.
This is typically followed by a physical examination wherein you will be asked to do specific movements like bending, twisting, walking, etc., to check for pain.
Conclusive diagnosis requires imaging scans such as an X-ray, MRI and/or CT scan to inspect spinal discs and detect bone/nerve damage near the spine.
