Symptoms may include back pain, pain that radiates to the buttocks or legs, numbness, tingling, weakness, and reduced range of motion in the spine.
Diagnosis typically involves a thorough evaluation, including a review of symptoms, physical examination, and imaging studies such as X-rays, MRI scans, or CT scans to assess the condition of the intervertebral discs and surrounding structures.
