Expert Spine Care for Degenerative Disc Disease
Degenerative disc disease is the medical term for the general wear and tear that develops in the discs that cushion the bones in the spine. This condition can occur as you age or as the result of a back injury.
Over time, the discs can break down, causing symptoms such as:
- Lower back pain
- Neck pain
- Pain and numbness in your legs or arms
Our doctors work closely with physical therapists and pain management specialists to create a treatment plan designed just for you. Whether you need medication, physical therapy or surgery, our goal is to help you find relief and enjoy a better quality of life.
