Understanding Facet Joint Dysfunction
At Advanced Chiropractic & Spine Center in Souderton, PA, our experienced chiropractors, Dr. Keith Miller and Dr. Matthew Booth, specialize in diagnosing and treating facet joint dysfunction to alleviate pain and enhance your quality of life.
Facet joints are small stabilizing joints located between and behind adjacent vertebrae in the spine. Facet joint dysfunction occurs when these joints become inflamed or irritated, leading to pain and restricted movement.
Common Causes of Facet Joint Dysfunction
- Degenerative Changes: Age-related wear and tear can cause the cartilage within facet joints to deteriorate, resulting in pain and stiffness.
- Injury: Trauma from accidents or sports injuries can damage facet joints.
- Poor Posture: Sustained poor posture can place undue stress on facet joints, leading to dysfunction.
- Repetitive Movements: Engaging in repetitive spinal movements can strain facet joints over time.
Symptoms of Facet Joint Dysfunction
- Localized pain in the neck or back
- Increased pain with spinal extension or rotation
- Muscle spasms around the affected area
- Reduced flexibility and range of motion
