Discogenic spondylosis, which is often thought of as a form of spinal osteoarthritis, refers to a degenerative condition that affects the joints of the spine.
Spondylosis refers to degenerative, or age-related, changes in the spine. These changes include disc degeneration, bone spurs, and thickened ligaments.

It affects the fibers of the spinal cord that transmit impulses to the arms, hands, and legs.
