Overview
Causes
Spondylodiscitis is an uncommon condition. It is usually seen in children younger than age 10.
Spondylodiscitis can be caused by a bacterial or viral infection. Or it can be caused by other inflammation, such as from autoimmune diseases (conditions in which the immune system mistakenly attacks certain cells in the body). The upper back (thoracic) and low back (lumbar) disks are most commonly affected.
Discitis can also be confused with problems related to hip pain.
