Neurogenic cervical spondylosis can be taken orally with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, decongestants, nutritive nerve drugs, muscle relaxant drugs and other drugs.
Neurogenic cervical spondylosis is caused by degenerative changes or herniated cervical discs compressing the nerve roots, so the majority of patients will have neck pain symptoms and arm pain, numbness and other neurological symptoms.
1. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (Loxoprofen sodium tablets, celecoxib capsules, etc.) can be applied for pain relief and elimination of aseptic inflammation, while nutritive nerve medications (methylcobalamin tablets, etc.) can be applied to alleviate the neurological symptoms.
2. The pain may be aggravated by the symptom of neck muscle spasm, and myorelaxant drugs (eperisone hydrochloride tablets, etc.) can be applied. In the acute stage, anti-swelling drugs (Herbaceous rhinoceros fluid infusion tablets, etc.) can be taken to dehydrate the nerve root in order to reduce the compression on the nerve root.
At the same time of taking medication, bed rest should be taken, and neck brace can be worn during activities, and physical therapy such as cervical traction can also be carried out under the guidance of specialized physicians.
3. For cervical radiculopathy caused by cervical disc herniation, if there is no obvious relief after 3-6 months of conservative treatment or symptoms of nerve damage such as hypomobility, which seriously affects daily life, surgery should be considered. Nowadays, the main surgical methods include anterior cervical disc removal and implant fusion, and intervertebral foraminoscopic nucleus pulposus removal.
If you have nerve root cervical spondylosis, you should consult a doctor and complete the examination in time, and the doctor will give you a reasonable treatment plan according to the patient’s physical signs and the results of the auxiliary examination, and the medication should be administered under the guidance of the doctor.
