Degenerative changes occur when the spine makes manifestations on its own. This often results in serious and painful problems related to the back such as osteoporosis or scoliosis.
Degenerative is an (usually) irreversible, progressive process in which body tissues deteriorate over time. Lipping is an overgrowth of the bone joints that is a symptom of degenerative or inflammatory joint disease. So degenerative lipping would be irreversible bone joint deterioration and overgrowth.

Osseous degenerative changes refer to the gradual deterioration of bone tissue over time. This can include processes such as osteoporosis, osteoarthritis, and degenerative disc disease. These changes can result in decreased bone density, joint pain, and stiffness, leading to functional impairment and increased risk of fractures. Treatment may involve medications, physical therapy, and lifestyle modifications to manage symptoms and prevent further degeneration.
