  2. Spinal stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spinal_stenosis

    Any of the factors below may cause the spaces in the spine to narrow. Spinal ligaments can thicken (ligamenta flava) [24] [25] Bone spurs develop on the bone and into the spinal canal or foraminal openings; Intervertebral discs may bulge or herniate into the canal or foraminal openings [26] Degenerative disc disease causes narrowing of the ...

  3. Disc herniation - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Disc_herniation

    Disc herniation can occur in any disc in the spine, but the two most common forms are lumbar disc herniation and cervical disc herniation. The former is the most common, causing low back pain (lumbago) and often leg pain as well, in which case it is commonly referred to as sciatica. Lumbar disc herniation occurs 15 times more often than ...

  4. Schmorl's nodes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Schmorl's_nodes

    Schmorl's nodes are fairly common, especially with minor degeneration of the aging spine, but they are also seen in younger spines. Schmorl's nodes often cause no symptoms, but may simply reflect that "wear and tear" of the spine has occurred over time; they may also reflect that bone strength was at one time somewhat compromised, perhaps due to a vitamin D deficiency although this has yet to ...

  5. Lumbar spinal stenosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Lumbar_spinal_stenosis

    Lumbar spinal stenosis; Other names: wear and tear in the spine: Lumbar vertebra showing central stenosis and lateral recess stenosis. Specialty: Orthopedics: Symptoms: Pain, numbness, or weakness in the low back, buttocks, or legs typically worsened with prolonged walking or standing and relieved with sitting or lying down: Usual onset ...

  6. Modic changes - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Modic_changes

    The bacterial cause is where the development of Modic change is due to an infection in the adjacent disc. A tear in the outer fibers of a disc may well initiate this infection. A disc herniation will result in a new local capillarization around the extruded material as the body attempts to remove the extruded material and inflammation with ...

  7. Spondylosis - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Spondylosis

    Degenerative process of spondylosis such as disc bulging, osteophyte formation, and hypertrophy of the superior articular process all contributes to the narrowing of the spinal canal and intervertebral foramen, leading to compression of these spinal nerves that results in radiculopathy-related symptoms. [6] Narrowing of the lumbar spinal canal ...

  8. Neurogenic claudication - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neurogenic_claudication

    These changes, such as bulging disks, thickening of ligaments and overgrowth of bone spurs, lead to pressure and potentially damage to the spinal nerve roots. [2] The compression of the spinal nerve roots that control movements and sensations in the lower body subsequently causes the symptoms of NC. [5]

  9. Facet syndrome - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Facet_syndrome

    Facet syndrome is a syndrome in which the facet joints (synovial diarthroses) cause painful symptoms. [1] In conjunction with degenerative disc disease, a distinct but functionally related condition, facet arthropathy is believed to be one of the most common causes of lower back pain. [2] [3]
