Spondylosis

Spondylosis is a disease that develops as a result of degenerative changes in the intervertebral discs of the cervical, thoracic or lumbar spine.

The main symptoms of spondylosis are pain and limited mobility of the torso. This disease leads to the appearance of characteristic changes on the radiograph, including narrowing of the lumen occupied by the intervertebral disc and the formation of osteophytes; These symptoms (symptoms of radiological spondylosis) may not be accompanied by any other symptoms or signs of the disease.

Pain reduction is achieved by wearing a neck brace (if the cervical spine is affected) or a special belt (if the lower spine is affected), which allows you to limit various movements.

In very advanced cases of the disease, sometimes it becomes necessary to surgically connect the intervertebral joints of the spine using a fusion type.

Spondylosis (from the Greek spondyle - spine and -osis - a suffix meaning disease) is a disease that manifests itself in the form of degenerative changes in the intervertebral discs (IVD) and cartilage tissue. Spondylosis most often occurs with pathology of the intervertebral discs of the cervical and lumbar spine and usually develops in middle-aged people, most often men.
