Welcome to Mosaic Functional Health & Wellness, where your journey to spinal health begins. If you’ve been experiencing persistent back pain or discomfort, you may be dealing with a condition known as degenerated discs. Understanding this condition and its implications can be the first step towards relief and recovery. Our team of experts is here to guide you through every step of managing and treating this condition.
Understanding Degenerated Discs
Degenerated discs, also referred to as degenerative disc disease, occur when the intervertebral discs in your spine begin to wear down. These discs act as cushions between the vertebrae, absorbing shock and allowing for flexibility. With age or injury, these discs can deteriorate, leading to pain and reduced mobility.
Common Symptoms of Degenerated Discs
Recognizing the symptoms of degenerated discs is crucial for seeking timely medical intervention. Common symptoms include:
- Pain that worsens when sitting, bending, or lifting
- Chronic lower back pain
- Numbness or tingling in the extremities
- Reduced flexibility and range of motion
If you’re experiencing any of these symptoms, it’s important to consult with a healthcare professional to determine the best course of action.
Causes and Risk Factors
Degenerated discs can result from a variety of factors. These include:
- Aging, which naturally leads to disc wear and tear
- Injury or trauma to the spine
- Genetic predisposition
- Lifestyle factors such as smoking or poor nutrition
