Can Degenerative Discs Heal Normal Again? (Neck Pain, Back Pain, Pinched Nerve) - Dr Mandell

[@darenmazzone3575]

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!

Hi Dr Mandell thank you for this very informative video. I am a 66 year old male and been very fit until August 2022. I used to be a long distance rider, worked out at the gym but in the last 10 years I was hit by negligent drivers that hit me in the bike lane. Therefore massive whiplash, fractures, etc. I recovered each time and kept riding until August 2022. I noticed that I had a very nasty neck pain in the left of my neck, which has got worse of the next few months. I did stop riding all together because it was causing me a lot of inflammation. Now I have issues in the upper part of my thoracic spine, down the right of L2/L3/L3/L4. I have seen a neurosurgeon who recommended no surgery and I was put of pain medication plus some cortisone injections. My neck pain has increased so badly that I can't sleep without tablets. Now I also feeling referred shoulder pain, arms, hands and fingers. Also burning pain, numbness travelling to my lower back, groin, legs and feet. When I sit I feel tightening of my groin and feet. My right calf also hurts. To make thing worse I get headaches, light headed, right side tinnitus. This causes depression, anxiety, high blood pressure because I can't get no relief. It is 24/7, I can't sleep unless I take opioids and nerve pain meds. I have tried physiotherapy, osteopathy, acupuncture and I am not improving. I can't drive the car due to pain when sitting. What can I do naturally for my neck and spine? Thank you in advance. Best regards. Alfred

[@MaximC]

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!

[@motivationaldoc]

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.

the tire analogy doesn't hold because it's not a living tissue. even bone can heal and grow stronger. I wasn't born with discs the size they are now, they grew. I'm skeptical, I think we'll find out this stuff can heal if you create the right conditions for it to do so.

I don't want to depreciate Doctor Mandel and his huge knowledge and great experience but he is not a God and also he isn't expert of spiritual healing and "mind over matter" philosophy which explains miraculous healings when medicine cannot help. I only want to say that quantum phisisicists becoming to a point when they must agree with mysticism and all teachings of spiritual great masters who were always teaching that everything is possible when you believe. If you believe in something, it happens exactly what you've expected. Quantum physicists also know that today and understand that all is energy which changes all the time. If you believe in health you will be healthy, if you believe that doctors know better you will be never healthy!

As far as I understand, discs can and do actually rehydrate. This is why you’re the slightest bit taller when you first wake up, since the discs have rehydrated a bit while you were sleeping in bed. Therefore what I would suggest is to stretch out that spine while in bed just before you go to sleep at night.

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?

[@koreikohouse2579]

Continue s ly pain ...how to cure

[@griziol]

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 :).

First start moving, walking, hidrating, ( drink more than just to satisfy your thirst), start eating best nutritional food,( salads, kale, broccoli, onions, beans, nuts, seeds, fruits), stop sugar, deserts, white bread, etc, stop eating meat, cheese, eggs, etc. After prepare for some fasting: stop eating breakfast forever; after 1-2 weeks, eat afer 18- 20 hours from meal to meal: ex eat at 18:00 and next meal after 18-20 hours next day; after 1 week eat one meal a day: at 18:00 and next day from 17:00-18:00, for a week; after that start fasting for a 48 hr; after for 3 days, after for a week. Go back to one meal a day for a week. Start fasting for 3 weeks. Go back for one meal a day for a week. Fast for 3 weeks. After that you start healing, continue to walk every day and start exercising Ci Gong for spine lower back and neck. The explanation goes to fasting, when the body goes into a surviving mode and start scanning the whole body and repairs where is a problem. Good Lock, I tell you from my own experience, I had from nowhere DDD on L5-S1 with severe spinal stenosis, bulge on L3, L4 and T1; Doctors have no solutions ather that fusion surgery, that is a disaster.

[@emilghengeaua355]

when somebody decide to do fasting, don't warry you will feel hunger just on time of the meal that you don't take and just a mild hunger on the next missing meal, after that you can fast without feeling any hunger for many days of not eating at all, because your body is not living based on calories, but consuming your body fat. In this mode, the body maintain a steady low level of blood sugar, so not a suddenly spike of insulins, that cause the sensation of hunger.

I'm surprised you didn't mention drink more water. If the discs are made of water, I would think more water might help. Most people drink everything but water these days.

I’ve been having DDD since I was 14 from a car accident, now ima 22 I’ve been on pain meds and anti-inflammatory pills since then, been looking everywhere for any alternatives so far, no bueno, there’s times in my life where the pain is to big i just no longer want to walk nor get up any more from bed any more. This video made me feel even worse inside. Didn’t really help at all.

Dr Mandel's knowledge is huge but has basics in many books and publications while he was studying medicine and all cases of patients in his career who also believe what doctor says as a truth. I don't want to depreciate Doctor Mandel and his huge knowledge and great experience but he is not a God and also he isn't expert of spiritual healing and "mind over matter" philosophy which explains miraculous healings when medicine cannot help. I only want to say that quantum phisisicists becoming to a point when they must agree with mysticism and all teachings of spiritual great masters who were always teaching that everything is possible when you believe. If you believe in something, it happens exactly what you've expected. Quantum physicists also know that today and understand that all is energy which changes all the time. If you believe in health you will be healthy, if you believe that doctors know better you will be never healthy!

Have you gave a thought on the process of fasting and rehydration over many years? Do you think it might reverse the process of bulge disk. I can understand that a herniated disk is over and ireversible, but once the disk it is still hole and in place, could it be possible that by a drastic change of lifestyle and some water fasting could repair this problem? Thank you for your time!

[@venuswarrior8456]

How truthful is this? Never heard

[@sophiemaster2383]

How come sir?

[@stephanygates6491]

So, maximum hydration is achieved through range of free motion as a daily practice, which is the only way to plump a thin disc. Not what you said, what I infer from what you said. (It is mostly water)

Electromagnetic based therapies are the key solution, especially at low frequency: they regenerate cartilage, nerves, and other tissues, by re-establishing the ionic intra-extra cellular exchange in damaged cells, thereby inducing an antinfiammatory effect.

Doc, incorrect about the inability to heal discs and restore disc height. If you'll look into ELDOA technique you'll see that it is quite possible to do

Hi Jon, I would agree that there are some possibilities although for the great majority of these disc pathoIogies I would have to disagree with you. I have seen thousands of X-rays and MRIs over the last 30 years and from that alone that's how I based my reference.

If you say such a black and white statement - it is wrong - it does not encourage hope and being proactive in ines health to try and regain the discs health.

hey Heidi, how did you go about this? My cervical spine is just f*cked. so much pain, I'm 23 now, it's been "degenerated" since i was about 15. they call it facet joint syndrome, but in my mind my spinal nerves are being impinged or comprimsed. i need an answer. this doc is definately amazing and knows what he's talking about. but I agree, not too hopeful of a message. but I fear it's the truth.
