there are no treatments for degenerative disc disease as in the current state of medicine you cannot replace old or damaged cells with new ones. surgery to correct alignment and remove misaligned tissue is the closest we can currently get. before you get to that stage you should try oral medications and interventional pain injections. see your va neurologist for guidance
