However, it\u2019s also another name for degenerative arthritic changes to the spine \u2014 spinal osteoarthritis.<\/p>\n<p>As you age, a variety of degenerative changes can occur to the spine\u2019s delicate structures. The gel-filled discs that cushion the vertebrae begin to lose fluid and collapse in height. The ligaments can become thickened and stiff. The facet joints that connect the vertebrae also can fall victim to spondylosis as the cartilage that protects against painful and damaging bone-on-bone contact breaks down.<\/p>\n<p>Spondylosis is common, and some patients who have it experience no pain. However, spondylosis can lead to the creation of painful bone spurs. To preserve the spine\u2019s stability and protect against stress, your body sometimes creates spinal bone spurs, called osteophytes. These bony growths can put pressure on the surrounding spine structures, including nerves and the spinal cord, leading to painful symptoms.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-primary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/contact\/\">Schedule an Appointment<\/a><\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/virtual-second-opinion\/\">Obtain Second Opinion<\/a><\/p>\n\n                                                        \n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n        \t\t\t<\/div>\n        \t\t<\/div>\n        \t<\/div>\n\n               \n        \t\n        <\/section>\n\n\n\n\n    <section id=\"image-text-block_6c32ae1ef5fa57fd80871482f52bad3d\" class=\"image-text image-text--right   bg-light-grey  image-text--inner   image-text--padding js-animated-text-container \">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"row flex-row flex-center \">\n                <div class=\"col-lg-6 col-xxs-12 image-text__half image-text__text\">\n                    <div class=\"image-text__text-wrap\">\n                        <h5>Patient Education Video<\/h5>\n<h2>Where Does Spondylosis Occur?<\/h2>\n<p>Spondylosis is a degenerative condition that can worsen over time, resulting in pain and discomfort.

The orthopedic surgeons at DISC specialize in a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/spine-treatments\/\">wide variety of treatment options<\/a> and surgical solutions. Many times, spondylosis can be treated with nonoperative treatment, providing pain relief and strengthening the spinal muscles to better stabilize the back and neck. This may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Anti-inflammatory medication<\/li>\n<li>Spine-specialized stretches and strengthening exercises<\/li>\n<li>Therapeutic injections<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p>If your condition does not improve or your painful symptoms impact your quality of life, surgical intervention may be recommended. We are leaders in a range of surgical options from minimally invasive procedures to more complex, traditional spine surgeries. One option may be endoscopic dorsal visualized rhizotomy, which can reduce back pain with very minimal surgical risk.<\/p>\n<p><a class=\"btn btn-secondary\" href=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/contact\/\">Schedule an Appointment<\/a><\/p>\n\n                                                        \n        \t\t\t\t<\/div>\n        \t\t\t<\/div>\n        \t\t<\/div>\n        \t<\/div>\n\n               \n        \t\n        <\/section>\n\n\n\n    <section id=\"cta-block_42c8cbdec11dcb43092bdbe37748ffd2\" class=\"cta cta-bg-red js-animated-text-container\">\n        <div class=\"container\">\n            <div class=\"cta-wrapper\">\n                <div class=\"cta-overlay-wrapper\">                    \n                                                                                                        <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"1920\" height=\"498\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-md-down\" alt=\"Dr Abrams explaining spine x-ray\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop.jpg 1920w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-300x78.jpg 300w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-1024x266.jpg 1024w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-768x199.jpg 768w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-desktop-1536x398.jpg 1536w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 1920px) 100vw, 1920px\" \/>                            \n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"663\" height=\"418\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-xs-down hidden-lg\" alt=\"Dr. Abrams consulting\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab.jpg 663w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-tab-300x189.jpg 300w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 663px) 100vw, 663px\" \/>                            \n                                                            <img decoding=\"async\" width=\"330\" height=\"475\" src=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile.jpg\" class=\"object-fit hidden-sm-up\" alt=\"Dr. Abrams laughing\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile.jpg 330w, https:\/\/www.sciatica.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/03\/cta-overlay-mobile-208x300.jpg 208w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 330px) 100vw, 330px\" \/>                                                                                        <\/div>\n                <div class=\"cta-content\">\n                                            <h2>Find Leading Doctors Who Treat Spondylosis in AZ<\/h2>\n                                        <p>If you are experiencing back pain, take charge of your treatment by visiting one of our locations in the Phoenix area.
