Cervical spondylosis, also known as cervical syndrome, is the general name of cervical osteoarthritis, proliferative cervical spondylitis, cervical nerve root syndrome and cervical disc prolapse. It is a disease based on degenerative pathological changes. Mainly due to long-term cervical strain, bone hyperplasia, or intervertebral disc prolapse, ligament thickening, resulting in cervical spinal cord, nerve root or vertebral artery compression, a series of dysfunction of clinical syndrome. The symptoms were instability and loosening of vertebral segment; Protrusion or prolapse of nucleus pulposus; Spur formation; Hypertrophic ligaments and secondary spinal stenosis stimulate or compress adjacent nerve roots, spinal cord, vertebral artery and cervical sympathetic nerve, causing a series of symptoms and signs.

How is sympathetic cervical spondylosis treated

First: pay attention to daily diet: drink less, eat more fresh vegetables: such as bean sprouts, kelp, fungus, garlic, celery, sweet potato, wax gourd, mung bean.

Proper maintenance exercises can make cervical spondylosis recover and relieve to a certain extent. For example: sitting upright, the whole body does not move, single head movement, respectively do head down, head up, left turn, right turn, stretch forward, back; Circle clockwise and counterclockwise. 5 minutes each time, the movement should be gentle and gentle.

Third: avoid taking part in heavy physical labor: pick up heavy objects, etc., usually should pay attention to protect the neck, to prevent injury. The upper limbs should avoid extracting heavy objects. When the upper limbs lift heavy objects, the force can be transferred to the cervical spine through the muscles of the suspended upper limbs, so that the cervical spine is pulled and the mutual pressure between the cervical spine is increased. The symptoms of patients with cervical spondylosis may be aggravated after taking part in heavy physical labor.
