Specializes in Orthopedic Spine Surgery

Arthritis: Sounds like a radiology read from an x-ray, MRI or ct. These are findings associated with arthritis of these joints or perhaps scheuermanns disease which is a benign condition. Treatment is nonoperative in general. See a spinal physician if you are having significant pain.
