Degenerative Spinal Conditions

Degenerative spinal conditions involve the gradual breakdown of the spine's structure and function over time. These are most common with aging but can also result from injuries or diseases. Common Causes include age-related wear and tear, repetitive stress, injuries, and arthritis. Symptoms include pain, limited motion, nerve problems and deformity.

Degenerative spinal conditions, like disc problems and arthritis, are incredibly common with age. A short note on these conditions can inform a large audience about causes, symptoms, and treatment options, potentially helping people identify and manage their own back pain.
