What are the symptoms and treatment of cervical spondylosis

summary

I have a slight cervical spondylosis, sometimes suddenly dizzy, head pain unbearable, shoulder pain and so on, when walking will suddenly fall. When I went to the hospital for examination, the doctor told me that I had cervical spondylosis, but it was not serious. After a period of conditioning, cervical spondylosis never occurred again. Now I'll tell you about the symptoms and some treatments.

What are the symptoms and treatment of cervical spondylosis

The first is to correct and improve the bad habits in the work. The bad working posture not only affects the treatment effect, but also is one of the main reasons for the occurrence, development and recurrence of the disease. The bad posture of head and neck should be corrected regularly or in time, the time interval should not exceed half an hour, and some neck health exercises should be done to make the cervical spine move and rest in all directions. The exercise of cervical vertebra should be cautious and avoid aimless rapid rotation or swing, especially in the acute stage of cervical spondylosis, vertebral artery type cervical spondylosis or spinal cord type cervical spondylosis.

Second: self traction therapy, which is an effective measure. If you suddenly feel pain in the neck or radiating pain in the shoulder, back and upper limbs, you can cross your hands, lift them over the top of your head and place them in the occipital neck, then lean your head back, and gradually pull your hands toward the head for 5-10 seconds. This can relieve the pressure in the intervertebral space for 3-4 consecutive times.

Third: cold stimulation of the neck will cause muscle vasospasm, aggravating the neck pain. In autumn and winter, it is better to wear high collar clothes; the weather is slightly hot, so you should pay attention to prevent neck and shoulder from getting cold when sleeping at night; in hot season, the air conditioning temperature should not be too low. It is not only easy to cause lumbago and leg pain, but also easy to cause or aggravate cervical spondylosis to improve and adjust sleep state and improper sleep posture. Therefore, to improve and adjust the position of cervical vertebra in sleep and the soft and hard height of pillow can play a preventive and therapeutic role.

matters needing attention

Cervical spondylosis is caused by long-term tiredness, which can be treated by doing exercises. However, if you feel very uncomfortable and have any abnormality, you must go to the hospital and ask the doctor for treatment in other ways. Life should pay attention to rest, don't stay up late, overwork, exercise to persevere, to adhere to the practice of cervical gymnastics, like me as soon as possible recovery.
