Degenerative disc disease, can i claim PIP?

Does anyone know if pip is awarded to anyone with this disease I have terrible trouble with my neck movements constantly in discomfort but don’t know if it’s enough to claim
I can’t sit down without squirming and find myself stood up all the time as this is more comfy for me I can’t even sit down and watch a film with my family 😢
