What you should know about degenerative disc disease. Health Articles | October 14 Cheap Devin Booker Jersey , 2017
Degenerative Disc Disease (DDD) isn’t actually a disease, instead, it’s a name given for discs that have become degenerated over time from normal wear and tear.
For your convenience, we will stay consistent and use that incorrect terminology, but we want you to recognize that it’s not a disease. Whenever DDD is given as a diagnosis Cheap Marquese Chriss Jersey , many patients panic because it sounds life threatening and progressive.
However, DDD is a misnomer. It is not technically a disease and it is not always degenerative, meaning it will get worse as you age. This is not always the case and often “degenerative” refers to the process that caused the condition in the first place. DDD is not likely to get more painful as time goes on.
WHAT CAUSES DEGENERATIVE DISCS?
The most common cause of DDD is aging. As we age, our discs will naturally dry out, causing them to become thin Cheap Charles Barkley Jersey , less likely to absorb shock, and therefore degenerate. Other than aging, there are other causes to DDD. Unfortunately, discs receive little to no blood supply like other parts of the body. This means that once the disc has become injured, it is unable to repair naturally Cheap Grant Hill Jersey , causing the disc to degenerate. Causes for injury leading to degeneration include:
Injury with associated pain and swelling Sports related injuries Injury from repetition in daily activities
DDD is what happens when, as we age, our discs between our vertebrae start to slowly shrink and therefore lose their integrity. The discs in our spine allow for flexibility and bendingtwisting and absorb shock between the vertebrae caused by lifting, resistance, and everyday movement. As they degenerate Cheap Jason Kidd Jersey , pain with movement and shock increases.
An MRI will show that most individuals over the age of 60 show signs of degenerated discs. In advanced degeneration, the discs can become so thin that the vertebrae will touch and cause pain associated with osteoarthritis. Individuals that show degenerative discs but do not have them from another condition, such as osteoarthritis, are considered to have degenerative disc disease
SYMPTOMS
DDD symptoms are typically felt where the degeneration occurs, which is often the neck or low back. These symptoms include:
Pain or soreness in the low back Pain or soreness in the thighs Pain or soreness in the neck Pain or soreness that radiates down legs and arms Pain or soreness when sitting Pain or soreness when twisting or bending Pain or soreness that goes away when active Cheap Shaquille O’Neal Jersey , such as walking or exercising
It is certainly true that we don't get a second chance to make a first impression. As the impression we make on the Internet is almost always with the written word, is it unfortunate that there is so much poor writing bouncing around in cyberspace. The following tips are intended to help you make a better first impression.
Speaking of first impressions, I don't want to present myself as "the Final Authority". Dave Barry readers know that would be "Mr. Language Person". I'm just a guy who's been writing marketing and training materials for a couple of decades and I've picked up a few things. If they are of value to you Cheap Steve Nash Jersey , I'm glad I could help.
Know your audience. Who are you trying to reach and what is the best approach to accomplish your goal? Should you be informal, strictly business or something else?
Plan what you want to say before you type the first word. Make a few notes. You will stay on message better and present a more readable piece.
No matter how extensive your vocabulary, resist the impulse to dazzle your readers. You may impress some but you'll lose many more. Common, everyday words work just fine - that's how they became common.
Avoid jargon whenever possible. Yes, almost every undertaking has its own language Cheap Dan Majerle Jersey , just write at the level most appropriate for the vast majority of your readers. If in doubt, see 3. above.
Syntax (sentence structure) matters. When I hear something like, "Me 'n' John went to..." it's like fingernails down the chalkboard! People who speak that way probably write the same way, I figure. If your word processor has a grammar checker, use it - the spell checker won't help in this kind of situation.
The other person always comes first Cheap Kevin Johnson Jersey , so it is "John and I went to...". The trick for determining whether to use I or me is to drop the other person and say it. I doubt you'd say "Me went to...". Right?
Short sentences are more powerful than long ones. They are easier to read and hold the reader better. It might just be two words: Janet smiled. Depending on what preceded it, those two little words could be very powerful indeed. Think how important this sentence can be: I do.
If you're writing ads and you'd like them to stand out, avoid using the same approach "everyone else" is using. Look at how many ads use some variation of "Make $16 Million Before Lunch!!!!!!!!!" and then do something else for yours. Nobody really buys that stuff anyway, do they? Use your imagination.
Some words simply cannot be modified, so don't. Among these Cheap Penny Hardaway Jersey ,for example, are unique and pregnant. Nothing can be "very unique" because unique means something of which there is only one. And a woman is either pregnant or she isn't. She cannot be "somewhat pregnant".
Punctuation is critically important. If you don't think so, study the following sentence. It can be punctuated to create opposite meanings: Woman without her man is nothing.
