devastating back pain that chronically impacts

sweet marjoram, olive oil, and wine, stored in an
earthen jar. However, with time, study, and
inventions, today we have a better understanding
of the spine, and better capabilities to treat

pain in the cervical spine. Other than this,
there are many other spinal conditions that are
incredibly complex and can cause considerable
disability, along with coming with a high price
tag. Having a lower back pain? No matter what
your age, body type, and fitness level, you will
experience back pain at some point in your life.
Lucky enough, the pain will be due to some kind
of muscular strain. But, it could also be a
spine injury or medical disorder of the spine.
So, if your back pain is

constant and lingering, it is advisable to get it
checked by a doctor. It could be a problem with
the disks between the vertebrae, or wearing and
tearing of the disk tissue with age. Another
condition could be a herniated disk that becomes
squeezed between the bones of the spine, bulging
out and pressing painfully on the nerves in the
spinal canal. What causes spinal
conditions? Spinal conditions could be caused by
an injury or a disease. The most common spinal
conditions seen include degenerative disc
disease, herniated disk, spinal arthritis, stress
fracture, spondylolisthesis, facet joint
syndrome, osteoporosis, sciatica, scoliosis,
kyphosis, spinal tuours, spinal stenosis, and
sacroiliac joint dysfunction. Spinal problems
could be due to a degenerative condition. Aging
causes degeneration of the bones and joints and
when this happens in the spine, it can lead to
excessive pain and inflammation, which decrease
mobility. This leads to stiffness of the body.
Dry and bulging disks between the vertebrae
could be a symptom of degenerative
spondylolisthesis. Other spinal problems caused
due to a degenerative condition include spinal
arthritis, scoliosis, spinal stenosis, and facet
joint syndrome. All of these are caused by
weakness of the ligaments, misalignment of the
vertebrae, narrowed spinal canal, swelling in the
joints, or fractures in the vertebra. How are
spinal conditions treated? In any case, spine
surgeons and orthopaedic specialists are
contacted. These specialists have extensive
experience of identifying the problem, and using
advanced diagnostic imaging tools to treat the
same. There could be certain medications or other
non-surgical spine care procedures that could
cure the condition. But, in severe cases, an
orthopaedic spine surgery is required. In such
