Diagnosis of head and neck movement restriction examination

  Restricted head and neck movement is one of the symptoms of cervical spondylosis, with soreness in the head, neck, shoulders, back and arms, stiffness in the neck and neck, and restricted movement. So how is the clinical examination and diagnosis of cervical spondylosis performed?  Step 1: The patient sits with the head naturally bowed, the operator’s index and middle fingers are placed flat on the patient’s sternal stalk, and the patient is instructed to lower the head and lean on the chest as much as possible. If the patient cannot lean on the chest or can barely get close but has discomfort in the back of the neck, this indicates a problem in the neck.  Step 2: The patient lowers the head slightly and, on the basis of visual inspection, touches the tense muscles and contractures of the cephalic grip, trapezius, and collateral ligament regions of the neck with the thumb.  Step 3: Palpate the greater and lesser occipital nerves. The outer occipital ramus, immediately below the lower edge of the occipital bone, the first depression below it is the foramen magnum of the occipital bone, and the 1CM opening next to the foramen magnum is the greater occipital N and the 2CM opening next to it is the lesser occipital nerve.  Step 4: Touch the Fengfu. It is the stopping point of the collateral ligament, above the large foramen of the occipital bone, on the bone surface 25px above the inferior edge of the occipital bone where patients with cephalad symptoms, Fengfu is also a commonly used treatment point.  Step 5: Transverse process.  Step 6: Articular eminence. At 75px next to the spinous process, medially to the inner edge of the vertebral plate and outwardly to the area of the external nerve opening. The purpose of the needle knife operation is to destroy the joint capsule.  Step 8: Scapular raphe. The medial-superior corner of the scapula.  Step 9: The large and small rhomboid muscles, 2 to 75 px next to the spine, the area parallel to the upper and lower corners of the scapula.  Step 10: infraspinatus and supraspinatus muscles. Touch the infraspinatus muscle to the center of the tianzong point and flick it around to see if there is any pressure and soreness. The scapular spine margin area (equivalent to the beginning of the large and small rhomboid muscles) must also be touched.
