Spinal disc degeneration is not a disease. In other words, disc degeneration is not an abnormality in the normal human body. By itself, disc degeneration does not cause pain. Disc degeneration is the natural aging process that causes normal changes in the spinal discs.

Thank you for explaining this. It clears up something I've been wondering about. When I was in a car accident a few years ago, they x-rayed my back. They told me that, other than some prior disc degeneration, my back was fine. I was still a bit stunned from the accident and didn't think to ask more questions. But later I wondered about it since I don't generally have a lot of back pain other than some low back pain when I'm on my feet for a long time. It's good to know it's a normal part of aging and doesn't necessarily result in pain.
