Osteoarthritis
Domanda
Good morning, is glucosamine suitable for pain in the left lower back? The X-ray shows reduced posterior disc space at L5-S1 and minimal retrolisthesis of L5. I am 73. Thank you, kind regards.

Good morning
It may help with the component of the problem related to the joint, but your doctor should also assess any possible nerve involvement, for example the sciatic nerve, and any conservative therapies for the muscular component, another factor of major importance in these cases.
