Schmorl's nodes affect your vertebrae. Photo Credit Adam Gault/Valueline/Getty Images. Schmorl's nodes, also known as Schmorl's nodes syndrome, is a deformity of the vertebrae. The condition can occur through sudden or repeated trauma to the back or as vertebrae degenerate over time. Certain exercises may help ease the condition.
Schmorl's nodes often cause no symptoms, but may simply reflect that wear and tear of the spine has occurred over time; they may also reflect that bone strength was at one time somewhat compromised, perhaps due to a vitamin D deficiency although this has yet to be confirmed with studies, or if heavy lifting is done at a young age before the vertebral bodies are completely ossified such as in young farm workers.
