It is a degenerative osteoarthritis which affects the lower spine i.e between the spinal vertebraea and neural foramina by narrowing the space. Patient complains of severe pain mainly during sitting and during bending and numbness and certain neurological disorders.
CAUSATIVE FACTORS:
Due to the narrowed space and osteophytes there is pressure on the nerves roots with sensory and motor disturbances thus causing numbness, tingling and pain which even radiates.
In chronic cases there will be stiffness and the vertebraes fuses thus immobilizing the area.
According to ayurveda, vata aggravates and gets accumulated in Trika pradesha causing degeneration of the asthi and drying up the synovial fluid.
Treatment involves nourishment of the bones and joints and soothing the nerves, thus preventing further degeneration by improving synovial fluid between the joints.
