Intervertebral Disc

Keeping our vertebral system in an upright position, the vertebral bodies are separated by interspinous intermediate spaces. The vertebrae are connected by short costal, transverse and spinous processes. The movement of the ilium back and forth is possible thanks to the interarticular connections of the paired pectoral and caudal girdles. The force of movement is created by the intervertebral discs. They are the ones who support the entire weight of the transverse muscles, distributing the loads that exhaust our spinal ligaments and joints. Intervertebral discs are quite functional, but due to the stress they are exposed to throughout life, most often they lose their properties and begin to hurt. What is the intervertebral space and how to maintain its health?

Intervertebral columns are one of the most complex elements of the spinal column, providing its main functions, which include: imparting elasticity with the ability to flex and extend the vertebral column

The human skeleton consists of many bones and joints of different parts of the body. Between the vertebrae that connect the ribs to form the spine are special intervertebral discs made of fibrous tissue. The discs ensure normal mobility of the spine and reduce friction between adjacent vertebrae. Damage to these discs can lead to back pain, which is called a herniated disc and is very painful.
