What is Degenerative Disc Disease?
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) is a common spinal condition that primarily affects the intervertebral discs – the cushion-like structures that lie between the vertebrae in the spine. Despite its name, DDD is not actually a disease, but rather a natural part of the aging process for many people. Over time, the intervertebral discs lose their water content and elasticity, leading to thinning, drying out, and sometimes small cracks or tears in the outer layer. These changes can result in decreased disc height and contribute to symptoms like back pain, stiffness, and potential nerve compression if the discs bulge or herniate. While DDD is often part of the normal aging process, it can also be exacerbated by certain lifestyle factors, genetics, and injuries. Treatment approaches aim to manage pain, improve function, and enhance the quality of life for individuals affected by DDD.
