Next to knee issues, I'd think this is nearly (if not more) common as we age. I personally have lived for around 30 years with a ruptured lumbar disc. I have found that keeping my core tone has mostly worked very well to minimize and manage pain, but have recently done something that has been plaguing me with more pain for over a week now.
Ironically I think it has to do with the stretching I've added to my normal workout routine, but I find that if I skip a number of days, it doesn't take long before I see noticably reduced flexibility. Damned if I do and damned if I don't sort of thing. Anyway, doing some investigation shows a procedure that takes only about an hour and does the equivilent of patching a flat tire, but to a spinal disc. Thought it was worth sharing in the event others are fighting this and having doctors tell them spinal fusion is their only option. IMHO, spinal fusion should only be a last ditch effort procedure as it can take a year to fully heal from it, and once done, any further options are very limited at best. news.cornell. edu/stories/2020/03/two-step-method-patches-herniated-discs
