Lumbar osteochondrosis can be expressed in acute pain in the lumbar spine. As with cervical, thoracic osteochondrosis, the underlying cause of the disease is a sedentary lifestyle with situational physical overload – long seating in the office or car, standing, lifting and moving heavy objects. Osteochondrosis often occurs with scoliosis, when as a result of curvature of the spine deformed soft tissues of the intervertebral discs, cartilage tissue of the joints of the spine.
Osteochondrosis is a process of destruction of the cartilage tissue of the spine joints. In the process of destruction of cartilage and direct bone marrow collisions, inflammatory processes, osteophytes (growths at the edges of the bone) are formed in the joint. The effects of the inflammatory process – swelling, fever in the periosteal (paravertebral) tissues. Reduction and hypertonic muscles, which creates a functional block for lumbar mobility.
Symptoms of lumbar osteochondrosis

Mobility in the lumbar region (turns, twisting, inclination) becomes limited. Management of the lower limbs becomes difficult due to acute pain syndrome. In chronic osteochondrosis, complications may arise in the form of the appearance of intervertebral hernias and protrusions, displacement of vertebrae (tuberculosis).
