The spinal column is made up of 33 vertebrae, intervertebral discs that act as shock absorbers, and a delicate bundle of nerves that includes the spinal cord and spinal nerves. Because of its complexity, even small injuries or degenerative changes can cause pain in multiple areas of the body, including the lower back, neck, and legs. Many spine conditions develop gradually and may worsen without timely care. Common causes include:
Degenerative changes (arthritis, disc wear, spinal stenosis)
Traumatic injuries and fractures
Congenital abnormalities (such as scoliosis or kyphosis)
Inflammatory diseases like ankylosing spondylitis
Herniated discs causing nerve compression
Poor posture, obesity, and sedentary lifestyles
Early identification of spine conditions allows for appropriate treatment and prevents complications. Understanding the risk factors behind spine conditions helps patients seek timely medical evaluation and maintain long-term spinal health.
Dr. S. Arumugam and his team bring unmatched expertise in spine care, leveraging decades of experience and advanced technology to deliver the best possible outcomes.
This condition involves the gradual breakdown of the discs between vertebrae, which can lead to pain, inflammation, or herniation (bulging) of the disc into nearby nerves.
