Ask the Doc – arthritis, disk replacement surgery, and vitamin C

Today Doctor Whaley had great information for us as usual! He also brought us a little table decoration. In this segment the Doc answered the following viewer questions:
My doctor says I have degenerative changes in my spine. Does this mean I have arthritis?
Is disk replacement surgery an effective treatment for low back pain?
Can vitamin C help prevent colds or shorten them? Can vitamin C improve my mood?

If you have a question for our “Ask the Doc” segment email them to info@fetchyournews.com anytime and we will get them on the show. We would like to thank Georgia Cancer Specialist for sponsoring this segment.
