Degenerative Disc Disease. Degenerative disc disease weakens one or more of your vertebral discs. Your discs normally act as a cushion between the vertebrae. Degenerative disc disease can develop as a natural part of the aging process, but it may also result from injury to your back.
Degenerative disc disease may cause back and/or leg pain, as well as functional problems such as tingling or numbness in your legs or buttocks, or difficulty walking. The diagnosis of degenerative disc disease begins with a physical examination of the body, with special attention paid to the back and lower extremities.
