Abstract
In the literature, the relationship between musculoskeletal diseases and the age of patients is more and more often mentioned. One of the diseases that arouses great interest of clinicians due to its prevalence is the degenerative disease of the lumbar spine. Increasingly younger patients reporting spinal pain, together with low availability of literature on the relationship between the disease and age, indicate the need for a broader analysis of the topic. The work presents available information on osteoarthritis and biological age. The problems of diagnostic tools and bone marrow changes that result from the aging process were discussed. Analyzing the available literature reveals the relationship between the aging process and the development of degenerative changes, as well as the need to undertake EBM-based studies to verify the relationship between the incidence of spine degenerative disease and its risk factors.
