Facet joint syndrome

The facet joint is a potential source of neck and low back pain. Facets joints are located between each vertebra. The facet joints allow the body to move in various positions, including standing, bending and twisting. The facet joints are lined with cartilage, which can wear down over time, primarily due to high level activity. These symptoms can present as persistent neck, mid and low back pain.
