Cervical spine experts pointed out that cervical spondylosis can be divided into ten levels from light to heavy, each level of symptom performance is different, hurry to test your symptoms according to your level.

Give your cervical spine a stretch and look up when you look down more After a morning of ambling around, will you feel a stiff neck when you raise your head? In fact, the activities of our cervical spine are in multiple directions, but most people most often keep their heads down action.  Under normal circumstances, the muscles controlling the direction of cervical spine activities are in a dynamic balance, and the tension and relaxation are free to stretch, thus maintaining the natural physiological curvature of the cervical spine. In layman’s terms, the cervical spine is like the mast of a sailboat, and the muscles that control the activities of the cervical spine are like the ropes that hold the mast in place, and if there is a problem with the ropes, the mast will naturally not be stable. If you always maintain a long-term repeatedly low posture, the cervical spine muscle balance is broken, it is easy to induce cervical spondylosis.  Not only the ambulatory work will cause pressure on the cervical spine, washing dishes, mopping and sweeping, holding children and lifting heavy things and other household chores will also cause great pressure on the cervical spine. Healthy people can easily reach 35 degrees of back tilt arc, cervical spine problems can probably only do less than 30 degrees, and some can only do a dozen degrees, which is a simple way to determine their cervical health or not.  But this problem can be improved by a very simple action, is to look up at the sky, to give the cervical vertebrae sufficient space to move. Insist on looking up to the sky more, you may feel sore and swollen at the beginning, and even your shoulders and arms will feel sore and numb, which means that there is already a problem, and you need to improve it properly. In addition, you can also tilt or turn your head more to the left or right side. For example, the head and neck slowly tilt to the left shoulder, try to stick the left ear to the left shoulder, keep it for 5 seconds and then return the head to the neutral position, then tilt to the right shoulder, again the right ear should stick to the right shoulder, keep it for 5 seconds and then return to the neutral position.
