What does hypertrophic change at the t9-t10 facets bilaterally -severe left, moderate right osseous neural foraminal stenosis mean? lots of pain

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Cause for back pain.: It means your main nerves coming from your spine that run through your vertebrae can be suffering of compression because overgrowth of the bony area is squeezing it/them.The pain is caused by the nerve itself that might be irritated by contact with the vertebra.Nerves transmit sensation so pain is triggered this way. F/u with your doctor to create a plan of action for treatment.
