Understanding Spinal Arthritis

Spinal arthritis is an inflammatory condition that damages the joints and connective tissues of the spine. As the protective cartilage wears down, it leads to pain, stiffness, and limited movement, making daily activities challenging.

Osteoarthritis (OA)

The most common type, caused by gradual joint wear and tear. It often develops with age and worsens over time.

Other Forms

Gout, Rheumatoid Arthritis (RA), and Psoriatic Arthritis (PsA) also affect spinal joints. These conditions cause inflammation, pain, and potential joint damage.
