Best Physiotherapy Treatment for Lumbar Spondylosis. Lumbar spondylosis is a condition which causes pain in the lower back due to age-related degenerative changes in the spinal discs and vertebrae. The lower back begins from the lowest rib to the upper portion of the buttock. It consists of 5 vertebral bones named L1 to L5, with 5 intervertebral discs located between them. This lower back region is known as the lumbar spine. Degeneration of the intervertebral discs, vertebrae and their facet joints in this lumbar region leads to lumbar spondylosis. Causes -The main cause of degeneration of the spine is the natural aging process. As we age, the bones of the spine suffer wear and tear, so spondylosis is much more common after the age of 50 to 60. This wear and tear from aging tends to especially impact the intervertebral discs, which are located between the vertebrae and act as shock absorbers, providing flexibility to carry out movements such as walking, running or jumping, among others. In addition to age, there are also other possible causes related to habits and lifestyle that can favor the appearance of spondylosis: Poor posture , hygiene , Excess weight or obesity , Sedentary lifestyle , Excessive high impact exercise.Symptoms- Low back pain, leg pain and/or other signs of nerve compression are the most common symptoms.
