Spondylosis Treatment in New Jersey

Spondylosis describes age-related or degenerative changes within the spine, similar to what many people call "arthritis." As discs lose water content over time, they may collapse or erode, causing vertebrae to rub against one another. This friction can lead to bony spurs (osteophytes), thickening of ligaments, and potential nerve compression. Although it most commonly affects the neck or lower back, spondylosis can occur in any region of the spine.

We invite you to call our Englewood office and learn more about managing spondylosis through personalized treatments.

Causes

Several factors often contribute to the development of spondylosis:

  • Advancing age
  • Degenerative disc disease
  • Arthritis
  • Trauma

Treatment

Most individuals diagnosed with spondylosis respond well to a comprehensive approach that includes medication and physical therapy. For persistent pain, epidural steroid injections can offer temporary relief. If non-surgical measures fail to alleviate symptoms, surgery may be recommended. Options include spinal fusion to address instability and decompression procedures to relieve nerve pressure.
