Learn MoreThis condition is a desiccation of one or more vertebral discs. The discs act as a cushion between the vertebrae. This condition can develop as a natural part of the aging process, but it may also result from injury to the back. Degenerative disc disease can lead to disc hernation.
Learn MoreThis pain comes from one of your spinal discs. Those are the soft cushions that allow the bones of your spine to flex and twist. Discogenic pain is a common reason for chronic lower back pain.
Learn MoreThis condition is a degeneration of the facet joints, which help stabilize the spine and limit excessive motion.
