Cracking the DDD Code: Unravelling Degenerative Disc Disc Disease| Mr. Ahmed Sadek Neurosurgeon
Descripción:
Join us as we unravel the mysteries of Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) in this detailed animation: "Back to Life: Unraveling the Mystery of Degenerative Disc Disease." DDD affects millions of people worldwide, causing pain and discomfort due to the degeneration of spinal discs. In this video, we delve deep into its causes, which include age, genetics, poor posture, obesity, and smoking, as supported by multiple scientific studies [1-6]. We also explain the symptoms of DDD - from localized pain to muscle spasms and stiffness to more severe issues like spinal instability, stenosis, and disc herniation [7-10]. To aid understanding, we provide information on diagnosing DDD and discuss a variety of treatments, from conservative care and injections to surgical interventions [11-14]. But the journey doesn't end there; we empower you with preventive measures and management tips to delay DDD's onset and manage its progression, helping you reclaim your life [15-18]. This video is endorsed by Mr. Ahmed-Ramadan Sadek, a leading consultant neurosurgeon and spinal surgeon renowned for his expertise and commitment to patient care.
