Thoracic spondylosis is one of the most common diseases. It is a condition that damages the intervertebral discs, leading to changes in their structure and shape. It should be noted that with age, the changes that occur in the spine gradually progress, so by the age of 40, the vast majority of people suffer from this disease.
Degenerative disc disease (cartilaginosis) in the thoracic spine is a relatively rare condition compared to other areas of the spine.
This is because the rib cage helps stabilize the thoracic vertebrae, limiting movement and injury that occurs from constant bending and extension as occurs in the rest of the spine. If osteonecrosis develops in the thoracic spine, its development is often associated with trauma.
Symptoms of osteoarthritis in the thoracic region
- Severe chest pain is a common symptom;
- Reduced sensitivity and the appearance of characteristic pain;
- Lack of oxygen and congestion in the lungs;
- Abdominal syndrome (abdominal pain).
Causes of osteoarthritis in the chest area
The development of osteochondrosis of the thoracic spine is promoted by lack of muscle loading. This significantly increases the load on the ligaments and discs. Other reasons for the development of osteoarthritis are:
- constant stress;
- changes in hormone levels;
- metabolic disorder;
- Excessive physical stress on the thoracic spine;
- genetic defects of the spine;
- changes that occur with age in the intervertebral discs and a decrease in water saturation of these tissues;
- disc injury (improper movement, fall or impact);
- obstructs blood supply to the area.
