radiculopathies

What causes radiculopathies at the histological level?

Radiculopathies are often caused by structural changes in the spine, such as disc herniation, bone spurs, or degenerative disc disease. Histologically, these conditions can lead to the compression of nerve roots, which may result in inflammation and subsequent damage to the nerve tissue. The presence of inflammatory cells such as macrophages and lymphocytes can be observed in areas of nerve root compression.
