Facet Disease Treatment in Indore

Facet disease, also known as facet joint osteoarthritis or facet syndrome, is a degenerative condition affecting the facet joints of the spine. The facet joints facilitate movement and stability in the spine, but with age and wear and tear, they can deteriorate, leading to pain and stiffness in the affected area.

Causes & Symptoms

Facet disease can develop due to several factors, including:

• Degenerative changes: Wear and tear on the facet joints over time can result in cartilage breakdown and bone spurs formation.
• Aging: As we age, the structures of the spine can degenerate, contributing to facet joint deterioration.
• Repetitive stress or injury: Activities that place repetitive stress on the spine or traumatic injuries can accelerate facet joint degeneration.

Symptoms of facet disease may include:

• Localized back pain, typically worsened with bending or twisting movements
• Stiffness and reduced range of motion in the affected area
• Pain that may radiate to the buttocks or thighs but typically does not extend below the knee
• Muscle spasms or tenderness over the affected facet joints
