Often both conditions run together as unstable joints tend to get bigger over time, eventually creating stenosis of the spinal canal.

Osteoarthritis (noninflammatory or degenerative arthritis) is the most common form of spinal arthritis. It usually affects the lower back and develops through wear and tear. As the cartilage between the joints slowly breaks down, it leads to inflammation and pain.
This age-related condition is called lumbar spondylosis. It's also frequently called arthritis of the lower back and results in chronic lower back pain that worsens with age and increases with movement. When this condition occurs in the neck, it's called cervical spondylosis.
