Lumbar spondylosis is a chronic wear-and-tear degenerative condition, so there is no permanent cure. However, the symptoms and spinal bridging can be effectively managed with medication and regular physiotherapy. You should consult your doctor or specialist to determine whether your current dose of Sazo 500 Tablet (Sulfasalazine) is sufficient, or if other treatments, such as biologic injections, exercise programmes, or surgery, are needed to improve your long-term mobility.
