Degenerative Disc Disease

[BelovedWord]

I was recently diagnosed with DDD and I have been in more pain than I can take. The pain meds don't work and I have had 3 injections with no relief. My dotor told me I have to excercise but my neurosurgeon told me that I can't because it will cause a more serious injury to my back. I go June 16 to get another stronger injection just so I can hopefully walk without pain. Please pray for me and others with this disease.

Brother, please check out Intu Flow at www.rmaxinternational.com. Scott Sonnon who created CST has worses problems than you.

You have to exercise otherwise you will get stiffer and painer.

Degeneration of the intervertebral disc, which is often called degenerative disc disease (DDD) or osteoarthritis of the spine, is a common disorder of the lower spine. Disc degeneration can lead to disorders such as lumbar spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal that houses the spinal cord and nerve roots), spondylolisthesis (forward slippage of the disc and vertebra), and retrolisthesis (backward slippage of the disc and vertebra) (Fig. 1). Actually, DDD is not a disease but, rather, a degenerative condition that can be painful and can greatly affect your quality of life. Disc degeneration is a normal part of aging and is generally not a problem by itself. However, when bone spurs grow adjacent to the discs, they can pinch or put pressure on the nearby nerve roots or spinal canal, and pain can occur.
