Spondylosis, commonly known as spinal osteoarthritis, is a degenerative condition affecting the spine and its structures. In orthopaedics, spondylosis involves the wear and tear of the spinal discs, vertebral joints, and ligaments over time. This condition is often associated with aging, but it can also result from repetitive stress, injury, or genetic factors. Orthopedic assessments for spondylosis focus on evaluating symptoms such as back pain, stiffness, and reduced spinal flexibility. Imaging studies, including X-rays and MRI, play a crucial role in diagnosing and assessing the extent of degenerative changes in the spine. Management of spondylosis in orthopaedics includes a combination of conservative measures such as physical therapy, pain management, and lifestyle modifications. In some cases, surgical interventions like spinal fusion or decompression may be considered for severe symptoms or complications such as spinal stenosis. Understanding spondylosis is vital in orthopaedics as it is a prevalent cause of back pain and can significantly impact the quality of life for affected individuals. Tailored treatment plans aim to alleviate symptoms, improve function, and address the specific needs of each patient dealing with spinal.
