After having an xray of my lower back area, due to consistent lower back pain, the report read as follows: "There is generalised disc space reduction with osteophyte formation consistent with chronic disease. The stress views show no instability".
My GP just strugged and said is aging and there's nothing to be done!
I am concerned about the "osteophyte formation CONSISTENT WITH CHRONIC DISEASE.
I am now 58 years old, but have had this lower back pain since my middle twenties, off and on.
PLEASE HELP!
