Living with degenerative disc disease often requires adopting specific lifestyle changes to manage the condition effectively. Regular, low-impact exercises like walking, swimming, or yoga can strengthen the muscles supporting the spine, reducing the burden on the discs. Maintaining a healthy weight is also crucial, as excess weight can increase the strain on the spine.
Proper posture while sitting and standing is vital to reduce additional stress on the spinal discs. Ergonomic furniture and mindful body mechanics during daily activities can make a significant difference. Additionally, a balanced diet rich in anti-inflammatory foods can support overall spinal health and aid in managing symptoms.
