Suggest Treatment For Pain In Left Side Of Body Due To Anterolateral Osteophytes
I have had a whole body scan as I have pain on my left side when I stand on my feet for any length of time and it gets quite painful as it moves from the side closer to the front of my body. The report says I have anterolateral osteophytes. What is the best thing I can do.....
Anterolateral osteophytes are formed due to osteoarthritis which is a degenerative disorder. I suggest you to consult an orthopedist for clinical assessment, relevant investigations and thus management.
Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.
