Cervical disc herniation is often caused by a combination of degenerative changes, neck trauma and other factors. The pathogenesis of cervical disc herniation is based on the degenerative changes of cervical intervertebral disc and secondary intervertebral joint changes, mostly due to the cervical intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus, annulus fibrosus, cartilaginous plate degenerative changes, especially the nucleus pulposus, in the role of external factors, the disc annulus fibrosus rupture, nucleus pulposus tissue protruding or out of the vertebral canal, compression of the spinal nerve roots and the spinal cord. Acute cervical disc herniation is mainly caused by accelerated violence that leads to neck sprain due to rapid head movement, mostly seen in sports or traffic accidents caused by neck hyperextension-acceleration injury. It is generally believed that acute cervical disc herniation occurs when the intervertebral disc undergoes a certain degree of degenerative changes on the basis of external forces, but it can also be seen in the intervertebral disc which has no obvious degeneration. If the pain in the neck is severe, it is recommended to go to the hospital in time.
