The majority of people with degenerative disc disease are treated with non-surgical methods aimed at pain relief and activity modification.  Over-the-counter medication or prescription medication may be used to ease your pain.  If your symptoms do not improve significantly with these medications, your doctor may inject your spine with corticosteroid medication to relieve pain at the source of the problem.


Your doctor may recommend that you wear a back or neck brace.  Occupational or physical therapists can provide treatments to help reduce your pain and any muscle spasms. The therapists will teach you exercises to help strengthen your back or neck muscles.


Non-surgical pain management treatments for degenerative disc disease are designed to relieve pain and restore function, but they cannot correct structural abnormalities in a disc or the spine.  For some people, surgery may be recommended if non-surgical treatments do not provide relief or if there is considerable loss of function.  Spinal fusion surgery is most frequently used for degenerative disc disease.  Spinal fusion surgery involves removing the degenerative disc and securing the vertebrae together.
