Facet Joint Syndrome, also known as facet arthropathy, is a condition characterized by pain arising from the facet joints, which are the small stabilizing joints located between and behind adjacent vertebrae in the spine. This syndrome typically results from degeneration of the cartilage within these joints due to aging or wear and tear, leading to inflammation, pain, and reduced mobility. Symptoms often include localized pain in the neck or back that may radiate to the shoulders, arms, buttocks, or thighs, depending on the affected region of the spine. The pain is usually exacerbated by specific movements such as twisting, bending, or extending the spine. Diagnosis often involves physical examination, imaging studies like X-rays or MRIs, and occasionally diagnostic facet joint injections to confirm the source of pain. Treatment options range from conservative measures such as physical therapy, medications, and steroid injections to more advanced interventions like radiofrequency ablation or surgical procedures in severe cases. Regular exercise, good posture, and ergonomic adjustments can help manage symptoms and improve quality of life.
