tell me about spondlysis?


Question:


Answers:
Spondylosis is the term used to describe the usual cause of accumulation of new bone (calcium
deposits) around the spinal vertebrae. Usually, this condition does not cause discernible pain or
disability. However, there are dogs that do seem to experience one or the other problem as a result
of this condition. There is no clear answer to the question about whether to keep up with exercise or
not. My personal opinion is that it is better to continue with moderate exercise, though. If aspirin
seems to help, it seems reasonable to continue to use it, to me. If it stops working there are more
potent pain relievers, such as carprofen (Rimadyl Rx), etodolac (Etogesic Rx) or
hydrocodone/acetaminophen combinations. It is usually possible to make older patients with minor to
moderate arthritis problems comfortable with some combination of medications.
