Overcoming Degenerative Disc Disease and Neck Pain, Back Pain, and Sciatica
UltimateBadBack Strategies.com I have just finished a series of articles to go along with this video. Degenerative disc disease is one of the most misunderstood conditions affecting people withneck pain, back pain, and sciatica. Degenerative disc disease is not a disease at all, it is a condition, a response to aging and a constellation of behaviors all working in concert against the spine. By properly understanding the nature of degenerative disc disease you can deal with it and the neck pain, back pain, and sciatica that generally accompanies it, particularly in the advanced stages of the "disease." Much of what we have been doing with the 30 Day Challenge has been focused on helping people overcome the causes of this condition and achieve real and lasting neck pain, back pain, and sciatica relief.

First, I am not a medical practitioner, I am a physical anthropologist. I have had 14 spine operations and my doctoral research was on age-progressive phenomena affecting the spine and sacroiliac joints. Degenerative disc disease is condition that has as much to do with behavior, along with the five factors! Numbness may be a consequence of nerve root impingement or something as straightforward as muscle inflammation. Your first step should be to get a thorough workup by a competent neurologist!

In many cases weight loss, combined with a sensible exercise and therapy program will help. Given the fact that you are experiencing numbness in your arms and legs, you probably have a number of issues to deal with and an overall, medically supervised program, followed by work with an experienced trainer, someone who has worked with back patients and has suffered from back problems him or herself! Empathy and understanding is crucial for your success. Neurologist over a surgeon as well! John
