Your Back Is Not Supposed to Hurt: Understanding Lumbar Spondylosis

January 10, 2025

Back pain is often seen as part of life, especially for veterans who endured physically demanding roles. However, persistent lower back pain may signal lumbar spondylosis, a degenerative condition affecting the lower spine. At Tactical Advocacy Group (TAG), we believe your back pain deserves attention and support and you don’t need to keep pushing through the pain.

Lumbar spondylosis arises from wear and tear on the discs, vertebrae, and ligaments of the spine. While age plays a role, the physical strain of military service often accelerates its onset. Carrying heavy packs, repetitive movements, and injuries can leave lasting impacts. Over time, these demands manifest as stiffness, radiating pain, or difficulty standing and walking, significantly affecting daily life.

Service-related conditions like lumbar spondylosis may entitle you to compensation or support. However, navigating DVA’s system can feel overwhelming. That’s where TAG comes in. Our team ensures your medical records and service history are prepared to build a strong claim. We are here to support you at every step, pursuing the compensation and treatment you deserve.

Taking care of your back means early intervention and consistent management. Regular exercise, maintaining a healthy weight, and seeking professional help for symptoms are essential. But if the pain persists, don’t wait.

Contact TAG today for a free consultation. Your service deserves recognition, and you shouldn’t have to deal with pain daily.
