Cervical & Lumbar Spondylosis
About the disease & condition
Cervical and lumbar spondylosis refer to age-related wear and tear affecting the spine in the neck and lower back. It involves degeneration of discs, joints, and vertebrae, leading to stiffness and pain. As discs lose hydration and height, nerve compression may occur, causing radiating pain or numbness. It commonly develops with ageing but may worsen with poor posture or repetitive strain. Early physiotherapy, posture correction, and strengthening exercises help manage symptoms and slow progression effectively.

- Poor posture over long periods.
