Backpain,mild spondylitis
Been suffering from low back pain since few weeks. X-ray suggests mild spondylitis at cervical and lumbar region with subtle endplate osteophytes in both regions.
Questions:
1. I am getting pains around ribs region on left side (front & back) recently and also suffering from pain around left collar bone for a few months. Could these pains related to cervical spondylitis?
2. How to diagnose the pains are related to this?
3. Any sort of treatment available for the pains reported above?
4. Any treatment available for osteophytes?
5. Getting pains around ribs when sneeze or yawn, what could be the reason?
I am attaching my x-ray reports for reference.
Need your expert advise.
Thank you so much.
