Can Degenerative Discs Heal Normal Again? (Neck Pain, Back Pain, Pinched Nerve) – Dr Mandell
Degenerative Disc Disease is silent until the later phases. This leads to chronic pain, disc herniation, and pinched nerves. Poor posture is the number one condition that leads to this chronic problem.
Exercising in water has made all the difference for me. I use many of your moves, Dr. Mandell, I just do them in water. Many thanks!
roxannelucky tell me the results
roxannelucky please man i need to know ….

THE HUMAN, THEY DO NOT FOOL, NO BLOOD SUPPLY TO THEM, THE SHELL IS LIKE OF AN EGG, ONCE BROKEN, DISC IS DAMAGED, SORRY TO BREAK THE NEWS
Did any of you got reply from him? If so what did he send?
Hi Faraz Baha’i..please send me the process to regenerate..my mail id is ram34akula@gmail.com
Hi doc! Thank you for the information.
I would like though to disagree with you on impossibility of regeneration (of any tissue in our body really, not only discs, and those deposits of calcium on vertebras etc.): maybe, indeed, there is no much of blood vessels bringing nutritions to discs, but *still* they *get* nourished *somehow*, they are living tissue and they would have been dead things if they didn’t get nutrition, and there is nothing dead in our body, as far as I know. If we were to take the stress off a disc (fix spinal structure) it would inevitably regenerate.
I don’t know (yet) wether you do or don’t discuss dietary importance on this channel, but that aspect is quite important for our body’s health.
Great videos, thanks!
Let’s be clear on what we are communicating about. In reference to tissues in the body healing and making changes, it is possible for all. In reference to thinning and degeneration of the disc structure, it is not possible to reverse in height and continuity.
What about with stem cell injections? have you heard anything about this?
Yes, I agree with Nathan. Dr. Mandell was wrong today. Degenerated disc can be regenerated again by using ‘Stem Cell Therapy’. All the best 🙂

Ok so how do you treat it? Most doctors don’t know what causes it so tell us and quit the bullshit talk
Stop texting and using your iPad in bed if your doing so. Start doing neck tractions with a towel (see on youtube) and do the neck rear hang over a bed or bench with a rolled up sponge or towel to regain the neck curve.

I am suffering from ddd (degenerative disc disorder) due to years of spending time behind the wheel and not exercising .
Now. exercising regularly and SLOWLY starting to notice improvement.
I’ll never be as good again, but at least I’ll slow down the breaking down.
Stretching helps (but can be very painful – no pain no gain)
hanging upside down to decompress – is great.
Blessings to you
Thank you and likewise
Life Force I’m doing restorative yoga and doing chiropractic care. They told me that I need disc replacement, but I’m 90% better, so no. However, I have to say that in restorative yoga, there isn’t a lot of pain. It’s more like playing with the edge of your capability.
If there’s pain you’re doing the wrong exercise
You are wrong, discs DO regenerate.

Angie M thank you for giving me hope!
Really?
I found out yesterday from the doctor I have ddd. Prescribed with medication and advised to take it easy for a week or two, then physical therapy. Deciding to eat anti inflammatory foods and may be do fasting. Still searching for healing and regeneration.
ANGIE…NEWS FLASH, THEY DONT
Hello Doctor. I have a question. There are many spine xrays of young and old people on the internet with one degenerative disc, while the other discs look pretty healthy. Why one disc gets that wear and tear and the others remain healthy? So, maybe there is still a possibility to have the discs healthy for life?
That depends upon many factors. Most degenerative disc’s usually there are multiple ones
Could you please name a couple of factors. This stuff is really interesting, I mean, if the discs degenerate as we age, then people should have all of their discs in the spine degenerated by 70 years, but it is not always true. I am confused!
Continue s ly pain …how to cure
Discs degenerate because of improper posture sleeping on your stomach sitting in front of a computer for hours with no breaks and so on… It starts on one disc and the that disc gets thin and that causes more pressure on others and they start to degenerate as well… Thinning of the disc causes bones to grow in diameter so they can keep the balance of the spine but it can pinch nerves. And the pain can also come as a result of muscles being clenched 24/7 because that way they can offer support to your spine. Also you need to understand that this is not a disease as the name says but its your bad habits. Discs can also heal with proper nutrition and this is backed up with new researchers :).

Do you have any suggestion’s on how to repair them ? I have fibri & cfs spine burns like I have Lupus. Bone broth maybe.
Cal/mag ?

I was offered a triple fusion with my cervical Laminoplasty operation two years ago – the discs were bulging and flat- my recent ex rays two years later- to my drs surprise – my discs are now plump , healthy and in alignment – and I am about to turn 55 years old-so it to s not because I am a youngster anymore. I will say- many of these drugs we can take for our condition – can dry up many things in our body- during these past two years- I took very little medicine because my stomach did not fair well with the prescriptions- also I believe in prayer.
Heidi Verrna Lennox fucking people

DDD starts as early as 16 yrs of age. I don’t think they regenerate cause I have not had full motion L to R neck movement now for 2 yrs. I’ve gone to physio, massage and now trying chiro. I’m doing the hang the neck over a bench with a round soft support under my neck, I’m also doing neck tractions laying down with a homemade device and am also turning my neck L and R to max and holding for 20 sec. I also tilt and hold my neck on both sides for 20 sec each. The hang over neck and traction are both done for 5 min each. I drink 8 or more glasses of water/day. I have Mild to Mod narrowing at C3-C4, C4-C5, C5-C6, C6-C7 and mild to mod changes likely C7-T1 but not ideally visualized.

17 with disc disease. Cannibis helps. Also recommend cyropracter
Check out Dr Berman, he does videos about arthritis aka degeneration. I have it too and am reversing it with diet and exercise and no meds despite what my doctor may prescribe. I do take some supplements though and they help provide additional nutrients and minerals.
16 years old with DDD
SHUHAM+ DROP MMA AND LIFT WEIGHTS….BODYBUILDING….STAY AWAY FROM DEADLIFTS AND SQUATS, STRENGTHEN THE MUSCLES TO INCLUDE YOUR LOWER BACK WITH CONTROLLED MOVEMENTS LIKE HYPEREXTENSION, ETC…YOUR PAIN WILL SUBSIDE
Tammara Buckey like omega 369 and magnesium?
Demotivational Doc!
sam1k he might not have delivered good news but it’s the truth. Would you rather he lie to you?
Hello. I wanted to ask for ur opinion if Dr Ho’s decompression back pain relief belt will work in any way? ( you can also search it online or YouTube .thank u.
So im fucked..
??
I just had surgery for my c5, c6, with fusion. I have had bladder retention for years and I was having to catheterize myself every 4 hours to prevent kidney damage. Guess what I am on day 9 of no catheterizing!! Turns out that the spinal cord being compressed on the nerves caused my retention. I don’t have full sensation back but I’m okay with that because at least I can empty my bladder normally. Surgery was the best thing I ever did! Now I have a better quality of life!
Discs can regenerate. I used to think that they couldn’t until I took updated xrays on my wellness chiro patients. Most didn’t but a few did double in size. They were all 65 yrs old or older. When looking further into this what the deciding factor was that these patients actually exercised regularly, ate a clean diet and were grateful people. We are design for self healing and self regulation. Unfortunately for most people our life choices limits the healing potential. Hopefully this can help motivate the many. Good luck!
Thanks
YOU’RE NAIVE , THEY DONT
This video offers nothing. I chose to believe that my discs can regenerate.
THEY CANT FOOL
If discs could heal, we wouldn’t need medical care. Be a vegan, take magnesium , no calcium, vit C, E , all organic, if not organic, rinse, soak, in white vinegar water…1 cup per sink of water…flaxseeds, chia seeds, nascent iodine, Celtic sea salt, fruit…no dairy…I’ve got it from a trauma and now I’m fighting to get it back. Go slow on everything. See (YouTube) Markus Rothkranz and Kristina raw vegan. It takes money to do all this and insurance doesn’t cover healthy living…only unhealthy symptoms. I’m not a doctor, just have experience and a lot, lot of research. Do walk the right way…look it up on YouTube…all here.
