Back Pain
Lumbar spondylosis describes bony overgrowths (osteophytes), predominantly those at the anterior, lateral, and, less commonly, posterior aspects of the superior and inferior margins of vertebral centra (bodies). This dynamic process increases with, and is perhaps an inevitable concomitant, of age.
Lumbar spondylosis usually produces no symptoms. When back or sciatic pains are complaints, lumbar spondylosis usually is an unrelated finding.
Lumbar spondylosis is present in 27-37% of the asymptomatic population.
Features
Etiology
Lumbar spondylosis appears to be a nonspecific aging phenomenon.
Pathophysiology
Spondylosis occurs as a result of new bone formation in areas where the anular ligament is stressed.
Clinical
Lumbar spondylosis usually produces no symptoms. When back or sciatic pains are complaints, lumbar spondylosis usually is an unrelated finding. There usually are no findings unless a complication ensues.
Imaging Studies
- Radiographs, CT scans, and MRIs are used only in the event of complications.
- Density (eg, dual-energy x-ray absorptiometry scan [DEXA]) – Ensure that no osteophytes are in the area used for density assessment for spinal studies. Osteophytes produce the impression of increased bone mass, thus invalidating bone density tests if in the field of interest and masking osteoporosis.
Other Tests
- Electromyography (EMG) and nerve conduction velocity (NCV) are used only in the event of complications.

I suffered a disc prolapse midway through 2007 and tried several methods to lessen the intense pain but nothing work. Nothing was able to give me any relief but then a friend recommended dr. sanjay bakhshi and I was amazed to find that within few days of my initial visit to him, around 10-15 sittings\sessions. I was able to resume my regular exercise routine. His methods are gentle and a pleasant change from manipulation and pain generally associated with treatment of back injuries. I would not hesitate to recommend him to anyone who suffers from back complaint.Mr Atul Shah Prolapse disc
