Degenerative Disc Disease Treatment in Indore

Best Degenerative Disc Disease Treatment in Indore

Degenerative disc disease (DDD) is a condition characterized by the breakdown of intervertebral discs in the spine. These discs act as shock absorbers between the vertebrae, but over time, they can degenerate, leading to pain, stiffness, and reduced mobility.

Causes & Symptoms

Degenerative disc disease can develop due to various factors, including:

  • Aging: As we age, the discs in the spine lose water content and elasticity, making them more prone to degeneration.
  • Wear and Tear: Repetitive stress or injuries to the spine can accelerate disc degeneration.
  • Genetics: Some individuals may inherit a predisposition to disc degeneration.

Symptoms of degenerative disc disease may include:

  • Back pain, which may worsen with sitting, bending, lifting, or twisting movements.
  • Pain that radiates to the buttocks, thighs, or legs (if nerve compression occurs).
  • Numbness, tingling, or weakness in the legs or feet.
  • Reduced range of motion in the spine.

FAQs

Degenerative disc disease is primarily caused by age-related changes in the spine, wear and tear on the intervertebral discs, and genetic factors.

Symptoms may include back pain, pain that radiates to the buttocks or legs, numbness, tingling, weakness, and reduced range of motion in the spine.

Diagnosis typically involves a thorough evaluation, including a review of symptoms, physical examination, and imaging studies such as X-rays, MRI scans, or CT scans to assess the condition of the intervertebral discs and surrounding structures.
