Title: 4 stages of degenative disc


1
What Are The Four Stages Of Degenerative Disc
Disease?
2
Stage 1  Dysfunction Stage
  • The spine no longer has protection from forceful
    motion and shock
  • Vertebrae start losing its natural curvature
  • Discomfort, mild neck pain, or back pain
  • In most cases, all the signs and symptoms of DDD
    in this first stage are very mild. Due to this,
    not many will be able to figure out if they're
    actually suffering from this condition. However,
    visiting a medical professional or a Chiropractor
    can help you know if you have DDD or not.
  •  
  • When your spine starts losing its natural
    curvature, the signs indicate that you might have
    this condition going on. You may not face any
    pain when you're in the first stage. However, the
    extra pressure on other discs can progress the
    aging of the joints, spine, nerves, etc.

Stage 2 Dehydration Stage
  • A continuous loss of function
  • Increase in discomfort, neck pain, or back pain
    (moderate pain level)
  • Spinal deformity will become visible
  • Bone spurs
  • Disc dehydration
  • The disc's degradation becomes more noticeable
    when a person enters the second DDD stage. You'll
    see them becoming thinner. Furthermore, bone
    spurs will be more common, which will cause bone
    deformations. Your spine curvature will turn more
    unnatural, and you may even notice the spinal
    canal narrowing.  
  •         
  • The second stage is the starting of moderate pain
    and discomfort. Many notices they've DDD in this
    stage only since occurring pain lead the patients
    to visit a doctor where they learn of their
    condition.

Stage 3 Stabilization Stage
  • A massive increase in the pain (Severe pain
    level)
  • Muscle stiffness and aches
  • Difficulty while moving
  • Spinal stenosis
  • In most cases, all the signs and symptoms of DDD
    in this first stage are very mild. Due to this,
    not many will be able to figure out if they're
    actually suffering from this condition. However,
    visiting a medical professional or a Chiropractor
    can help you know if you have DDD or not.
  •  
  • When your spine starts losing its natural
    curvature, the signs indicate that you might have
    this condition going on. You may not face any
    pain when you're in the first stage. However, the
    extra pressure on other discs can progress the
    aging of the joints, spine, nerves, etc.

Stage 4 Collapsing Stage
  • An extreme level of pain
  • Collapse
  • The fourth or final stage of Degenerative Disc
    Disease is a highly severe condition and is
    irreversible in most cases. Your bones will
    become too thin and might turn herniated and
    collapse. There will be almost no flexibility in
    your spine, and the pain will be frequent and of
    severe levels. The spine bones will fuse
    together, and the nerve damage will be more
    prominent.
