Osteophyte lipping, often associated with osteoarthritis, can be managed through various approaches. Non-surgical options include physical therapy, anti-inflammatory medications, and corticosteroid injections to reduce pain and improve mobility. In more severe cases, surgical interventions such as osteophyte removal or joint replacement may be considered. It's important to consult a healthcare professional to determine the most appropriate treatment based on the individual's condition.
An anterior osteophyte is a type of bone spur that occurs on the front part of a vertebrae. Osteophytic lipping causes the joint space to narrow which can put pressure on nearby nerves.
When bone comes into contact with bone wear damage occurs in the area of contact so the body tries to rebuild the bone where it is damaged. the problem is however that you end up with little bits of bone growing into areas where they do more harm then good. this is called osteophyte lipping.

Lipping occurs in the vertebrae as humans age. Lipping of the vertebrae is the formation of bone between the vertebrae, commonly known as bone spurs.

What I a anterior endplay osteophyte and what are the treatment method
Osteophytes are often called bone spurs. These bony protrusions form in and around joints, often causing pain and limiting range of motion. Many osteophytes are identified by their shape such as osteophytic ridging, spurring, or lipping. However, each osteophyte has a unique shape based on the cause and location.
