Cervical spondylitis, also known as cervical spondylosis, is an age-related condition that affects the cervical spine, causing the wear and tear of the bones, discs, and joints in the neck. This degeneration can lead to various symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness, radiating pain, and difficulty with balance. It occurs when the discs in the neck lose hydration and elasticity, leading to compression of the nerve roots, which in turn results in pain, tingling, and muscle weakness.
The discs and joints naturally wear down with age.
Over time, these habits can strain the neck.
Previous injuries to the neck can increase the risk
A family history of spine disorders can make individuals more susceptible.
Conditions like osteoarthritis and rheumatoid arthritis can contribute to degeneration.
Headaches that often start at the back of the head, near the neck
Balance problems or difficulty maintaining stability when standing or walking
Pain or tingling that radiates from the neck into the arms and hands
Limited range of motion and neck stiffness
Muscle weakness and coordination difficulties.
– Medications:
Analgesics, NSAIDs, and muscle relaxants are often used to manage pain and inflammation.
Limitation: Long-term use of NSAIDs can cause gastrointestinal issues, and muscle relaxants may lead to drowsiness or dizziness.
– Cervical Collars:
Soft cervical collars help provide neck support and limit movement, which can reduce pain.
Limitation: Extended use can lead to muscle weakness and a decrease in neck stability.
