The final stage of degenerative disc disease is the most severe and is typically considered irreversible. Discs are at their thinnest or gone altogether. The flexibility of the spine is extremely limited and pain is often considerable. Nerve damage can be severe and the bones of the spine may even begin to fuse together.
Degenerative joint disease, or joint degeneration, is another name for osteoarthritis. It is known as “wear-and-tear” arthritis because it develops as joints wear down, allowing bones to rub against each other. People with degenerative joint disease often have joint stiffness, pain and swollen joints.

An important concept to remember with DDD is that treatment does not reverse any of the anatomic changes that occur, but helps manage the symptoms. With this condition, there is a similar process that is occuring, but at a different location on the vertebrae. The anatomical structure involved in DJD is the facet joint.

Degenerative Joint Disease of the Hip (Osteoarthritis of the Hip) Overview – What is Degenerative Joint Disease of the Hip (Osteoarthritis of the Hip) ? This condition is a wearing away of cartilage in the hip joint caused by arthritis, which can develop because of trauma, infection, age or autoimmune disorders.
Osteoarthritis of the Hip Osteoarthritis is a degenerative joint disease, which means it causes gradual damage to the joint. It is the most common form of hip arthritis and can affect other joints. Hip osteoarthritis is typically caused by wear and tear related to aging and worsens over time.

This is the official approximate match mapping between ICD9 and ICD10, as provided by the General Equivalency mapping crosswalk. This means that while there is no exact mapping between this ICD10 code M16.52 and a single ICD9 code, 715.25 is an approximate match for comparison and conversion purposes.
