Many patients come to the clinic with “neck pain” and ask me anxiously, “Doctor, do I have cervical spondylosis?” In fact, there is no relationship between “neck pain” and “cervical spondylosis” in most cases. Most patients with “neck pain” have recently experienced the following: ① prolonged head bowing; ② prolonged holding of the neck in one position (such as to the computer screen); ③ cold or strain and reduced sleep time. Moreover, the “pain” of “neck pain” is not a sharp pain, but more often “discomfort”, “something is not right”. The “pain” is more often “uncomfortable”, “not right”, “sore and achy”, and often also the muscles of the scapulae on both sides also have this performance. This is medically called “collar and back muscle strain” or “collar and back muscle fasciitis” and is caused by overworking of the collar and back muscle, the muscle at the back of the neck. It is like a spring, after a long period of stretching, does not return to its original state, and shows a self-protective discomfort in the human body, suggesting that you need to rest. If there is such a situation, we do not need to go to the doctor, they can cure: ① rest, change the posture that caused the strain; ② can do massage and physical therapy, relax the muscles; ③ exercise the collar and back muscle: hands on the head, the head to do backward posture and double arm confrontation, feel the collar and back muscle after a strong contraction, adhere to 5 seconds, and then relax, “a collection of a loose ” count once, do at least 60 times a day. A strong spring will have a stronger resistance to pull, this reason we all understand it. There are many kinds of “cervical spondylosis”, the longest is “spinal cord type cervical spondylosis” and “nerve root type cervical spondylosis”, these two types in most patients have less “Neck pain” is the most common type of cervical spondylosis. The typical manifestations of “spinal cord cervical spondylosis” are: (1) weakness of the lower limbs, unstable walking, and tripping over very low steps; (2) hands are not as flexible as before, and it is difficult to hold chopsticks and fasten buttons; (3) numbness in the limbs and trunk, and a feeling of “electric shock”, but rarely pain in the limbs. (3) numbness in the limbs and trunk, with “electric” sensation, but rarely pain in limbs. The typical manifestations of “neurogenic cervical spondylosis” are: ① numbness and pain in both upper limbs, which can involve both hands and shoulders, and the most classic manifestation is the “Young Pioneer salute posture” to relieve the pain; ② muscle atrophy in the upper limbs, thinning of the arms, and “flattening out” of the hands. “flattened off”. If anyone has the above performance, quickly find an orthopedic surgeon to look at it.
