Spinal Inflammation

Spinal inflammation involves swelling and irritation within the tissues of the spine, including the vertebrae, discs, or surrounding membranes. This condition can cause pain, stiffness, and limited mobility. It may result from immune system disorders, infections, injuries, or degenerative diseases. The inflammation can put pressure on nerves, leading to symptoms such as numbness, tingling, or weakness. Treatment focuses on reducing inflammation, managing pain, and addressing the underlying cause, often through medications, physical therapy, or other medical interventions. Recognizing and treating spinal inflammation promptly is important to prevent long-term damage or complications.
