Will Core Strengthening Exercises Help Back Pain While Having Lumbar Degenerative Disc?
I have been diagnosed with lumbar degenerative disc disease. I have signs of osteoarthritis. I see a chiropractor regularly. I am doing stretching exercises and will begin working on core strengthening exercises now that my acute pain has subsided. Is there anything else I can do to care for my back?
