Facet Joint Dysfunction
Facet joint dysfunction is a painful spinal condition often caused by arthritis, injury, or wear and tear from aging. It can lead to symptoms like localized pain, stiffness, and difficulty with movement. Diagnosis typically involves a physical exam and imaging tests, while treatment options range from conservative approaches like physical therapy and medication to interventional procedures such as joint injections. The primary goal of treatment is to manage pain and improve a person’s mobility and quality of life.
