A doctor told me after checking up , you have all signs of degenerative disc disease ... is this mean the disc that we know ? what is degenerative ... ? thanks Drs

It's not the same situation as the one where the disc compresses the nerves and which would sometimes need surgery. Degenerative disc disease usually does not need surgery.
