Degenerative Disc Disease Treatment with LSI’s Revolutionary 5-Day Process
Degenerative disc disease is a spinal condition that is linked to the normal aging process. It starts when the cushiony discs between your vertebrae deteriorate over the years. This deterioration causes a narrowing of your normal “disc space.” Eventually the narrowing can result in pressure on your spinal cord and pain for you.
Degenerative disc disease can happen at any level of your spinal column and, depending on the level, can cause pain to radiate from your back to many other parts of your body. The amount of pain you experience from this disease may range from somewhat frustrating to severely debilitating.
Whether you have degenerative disc disease pain that is irritating, crippling, or somewhere in between, Laser Spine Institute wants to hear from you.
