Osteochondrosis of the spine is one of the most common diseases.Osteochondrosis occurs with increased load on the spine and in people with a sedentary lifestyle (office workers who sit for a long time at the computer).
In the morning you feel stiffness in the back, limited movement in one part of the spine.These may be the first symptoms of an insidious disease, which has become much younger in recent years - spinal osteochondrosis.
The disease can last a long time without external manifestations.
The first signs of imbalance that you should see a doctor about are:
- back muscle tension
- back pain
- Periodic restriction of movement in the cervical, thoracic or lumbar region,
- A feeling of tightness in the back in the morning, which disappears after warming up.
In the spine, degenerative-dystrophic changes occur in the cartilage and joints, which causes disc deformation;Arthrosis is formed in the intervertebral joints.Treatment should be started in the early stages of the disease.
Methods for diagnosing osteochondrosis include X-ray diagnostics and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine.
