Hi, I need informations on degenerative arthritis of spine since my symptoms of constant, dull and occasionally sharp pain turn out to be arthritis. What can be done about this condition?

You will be given classical therapy for such a condition consisting of some pain killers, corticosteroids to prevent spreading of inflammation and TNF (tumor necrosis factor ) antagonist therapy and maybe methotrexat. However, there is a new approach of treating arthritis with B-cell targeted therapy. It is proposed to patients suffering from modest to severe active rheumatoid arthritis (RA), who didn’t get satisfying results with one or more TNF antagonist therapies. this approach includes combinations with methotrexat. So, you will find out in time what are best treating options for your condition.

I absolutely recommend doing some research. Visit medical sites, because they will have the most accurate information.

Hope I've been of some help! Smile
