If your doctor said your degenerative disc disease is causing your pain let's have a chat 😘
First off, we're not supposed to call it that anymore 🤫
Namely because it's a misnomer ... A disease? You didn't contract anything... It's normal degenerative changes (the AMA came out and said we should stop calling it that so this isn't even my association saying this ya know 🫡)
Anyways back on topic...
If your 'spinal degeneration' is being blamed for your back pain, but you don't have neurological symptoms it may not be just the bones in your spine or joints...
Likely it's the musculature around it even if you don't see changes in those on the x-ray. 👍
So what does this all mean? Instead of going for surgery, instead of going for more injections, why not get a second opinion about what may be really causing your back pain 🫡
