I have degenerative disc disease and I got hooked on narcotics. Any other remedies?

DDD is not a disease but part of the aging process. It just means that the discs between the vertebrae are shrinking. Everyone goes through this, some never have any pain, other have pain, but narcotic pain killers are a wee bit over the top for this aging process. Unless every human over the age of 30 is on narcotics? The remedy, 'time'. At 60-65 the discs have fully dehydrated, shrunk and that is it. Best of Luck
