What are the symptoms of thoracic spondylosis?

Thoracic spondylosis is caused by various stimulations and influences, which lead to pathological symptoms of the thoracic nerves and bone marrow, such as hunchback, chest pain, etc. If it is serious, it will compress the spinal cord and cause numbness of the legs. Sometimes it may also cause poor digestion and abnormal urination and defecation.

1. The common manifestations of thoracic spondylosis are chest and back pain and kyphosis, and the chest pain is more severe when sitting in a bent position.

2. The pain caused by degeneration of the upper thoracic vertebrae radiates to the front chest.

3. When the lower thoracic spine is diseased, the pain may radiate to the abdominal wall and is sometimes mistaken for angina pectoris.

4. If the hyperplasia stimulates the sympathetic nerves located beside the spine, it can cause autonomic nervous system symptoms such as circulatory disorders.

5. The patient suffers from kyphosis and thorax due to narrowing of intervertebral space.

6. The breathing range is reduced due to limited rib movement.

7. If the degeneration is severe and the spinal cord is compressed, numbness of the lower limbs and vertebral tract signs may occur.
