    Degenerative Disk Disease

    Symptoms
    A ruptured disk often results in a pinched nerve because of the pressure it puts on nerve tissue. The symptoms that result from a pinched nerve vary according to the location and severity of the injury: a jerking knee, a weak fist, or a numb foot can all be signs of a pinched nerve, and thus, degenerative disk disease.
