A member asked:

I have endplate osteophyte and my back hearts really bad when its really cold out or if i pick up more then20 pounds and the back of my neck hurt at?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Bone spur: Hello. I am not sure what your question is, but endplate osteophytes are bone spurs of the spine which form slowly with age, or sometimes as a response to traumatic changes to the intervertebral discs. They CAN cause pain, but more often the pain is from something else in the spine.
