1] I have been diagnosed w/ this disease about 5 years ago. It really isn't a disease though. 2} DDD causes Osteophytes, i.e. bone spurs. These spurs poke themselves into muscles, nerves, & tissues. 3}

Page Title and URL reference

edit

Degenerative disc disease is commonly spelled Degenerative disk disease. Because DISK is spelled DISC in this article both references should be used. Bdelisle 18:11, 14 May 2006 (UTC)Reply

In the medical world "disc" is by far the most common spelling for an intervertebral disc:

alternative treatements

edit

should there not be something about alternative treatements such as proliferant injection? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Noserider (talkcontribs) 14:26, 28 June 2011 (UTC)Reply

Section notes on "Possible Causes of DDD"

edit

The content of the article's concluding section, "Possible Causes of DDD," is little more than gibberish. If the content is, in fact, pertinent to a discussion of the possible causes of DDD, an explanation of the relationship between the facts presented and the development of DDD should be elucidated. As it is, the entire section is so muddled that the legitimacy of the rest of the article is seriously impugned. The section, "Possible Causes of DDD," should be either clarified or simply removed.

Imaging findings often clinically irrelevant

edit

This article would be a scary read for someone who just was told there was DDD seen on their imaging reports. It has been known for some time that DDD seen on imaging is most commonly not clinically relevant and this idea should receive significant mention in this article. Here is a recent review: [2] Quote: "Imaging findings of spine degeneration are present in high proportions of asymptomatic individuals, increasing with age. Many imaging-based degenerative features are likely part of normal aging and unassociated with pain. These imaging findings must be interpreted in the context of the patient’s clinical condition." 2001:56A:75B7:9B00:1CD2:C8F4:CB20:61F3 (talk) 18:48, 23 May 2016 (UTC)Reply

Orphaned references in Degenerative disc disease

edit

I check pages listed in Category:Pages with incorrect ref formatting to try to fix reference errors. One of the things I do is look for content for orphaned references in wikilinked articles. I have found content for some of Degenerative disc disease's orphans, the problem is that I found more than one version. I can't determine which (if any) is correct for this article, so I am asking for a sentient editor to look it over and copy the correct ref content into this article.
