Common Condition
Expert diagnosis and minimally invasive treatment in Dallas, Texas.
Degenerative disc disease simply means the cushion-like discs between your back bones slowly dry out and flatten over time. They stop working as good shock absorbers, so your back can hurt and feel stiff or unstable.
Comprehensive treatment for age-related disc degeneration and the chronic pain it causes. We focus first on conservative therapies and advance to motion-preserving or stabilizing procedures only when needed, always prioritizing your long-term spinal health and function.
Symptoms may vary depending on the location and severity of the condition:
Feeling of tiredness or weakness in the back muscles after minimal activity.
Pain that travels into the arms or legs when nerves become irritated.
Reduced flexibility, especially after waking or sitting.
Deep, aching pain that flares with activity or prolonged positions.
