My mother has a lumbar spine and back arthritis severe. am i at risk of getting it too and how can i prevent this?

Potentially : There does appear to be some degree of a genetic component to the development of spinal problems, although it has yet to be well defined. Keeping your body weight ideal, avoiding smoking, and keeping your core strong are among the most common recommendations to try to avoid back problems. Don't hesitate ton see a specialist to discuss your specific case.
