A bad cervical spine generally refers to neck and shoulder pain caused by spasm of the soft tissues around the neck and shoulders, or strain of the soft tissues, in which case appropriate physical therapy can be done. A herniated disc in the cervical spine can cause numbness in the hands and pain in the shoulders and neck. In this case, it is necessary to go to the hospital for an X-ray, CT, or MRI to confirm which type of cervical spondylosis is present. If it is the nerve root type, spinal cord type, sympathetic nerve type or mixed type, the symptomatic treatment should be based on the different diseases. Generally speaking, conservative treatment is the mainstay, and when the condition reaches a certain level, then surgical treatment will be carried out. Surgical treatment includes removal of the disc and fixation of the vertebral body. People with cervical spondylosis try to minimize head bowing and avoid sitting for a long time and looking at cell phones.
