Numerous health care resources are utilized to treat low back pain (LBP) resulting from degenerative disc disease (DDD). Most patients with disc degeneration remain asymptomatic, and the degree of disc degeneration does not correlate with pain severity, making diagnosis and effective treatment challenging.
大量医疗资源被用于治疗因椎间盘退变(DDD)引起的下腰痛(LBP)。大多数椎间盘退变患者并无症状,且椎间盘退变程度与疼痛严重程度无关,这使得诊断和有效治疗颇具挑战性。
