Facet joint syndrome, sometimes referred to as facet disease, is a condition that affects the facet joints as they degenerate from years of wear and tear. The facet joints are part of the connection between two adjacent vertebrae. Because the facet joints are almost constantly in motion, they simply degenerate from wear and tear or repetitive stresses and strains over time as we age. This is why the condition is more commonly found in the elderly.

With age related natural wear and tear of the spine, Facet joint syndrome develops as the spinal discs become thinner, placing more stress on the facet joints. The increased stress causes inflammation and formation of spinal bone spurs leading to arthritis of the facet joint, or facet syndrome. The development of arthritic joints can produce considerable pain and other facet joint symptoms that are felt when the joint is in motion.
As facet disease develops, muscle spasms may occur as protective reflex responses. In conjunction with the development of facet disease, powerful muscle spasms will force the spine out of alignment. Thus, treating facet syndrome will usually involve relaxing the spastic muscles.

  1. As human beings we are structurally disappointing. This shyt is so depressing…it seems like if you're 30 and under you can live your best life…. After that it's "who knows what's next!"

  2. This is my situation due to hypermobile spectrum disorder. It is extremely painful and ,in my experience, extremely difficult for normal family practitioners to detect, diagnose, or much less, offer adequate help in any way. The pain management for this is so lacking that this very fact has caused me more pain both physically and mentally.

  3. きれいな3D画像での解説ありがとうございます。
    facetに対して我々の病院ではリリース注射と呼んでいる、生理食塩水の局注を行っています。診断があっているかどうか、という問題もありますが、我々の認識としては、足を引きずりながら診察室に入ってきた患者がその治療で診察室を出るときには普通に歩いて帰ることを度々経験しています。一方で、この解説動画だと骨の変化まで表現しておられ、そうなるとさすがに生理食塩水では治らないと思います。病態として骨変形する前の段階もfacet joint syndromeと考えていますが、いかがでしょうか?
