Five-step therapy for cervical spondylosis

  If you are already suffering from cervical spondylosis, do not be nervous. With the current level of medical care, about 95% of patients can be cured with regular treatment, but it is important to seek medical attention early and in a more reasonable order in order to truly embark on the road to recovery. There are many treatments for cervical spondylosis, and it is necessary to focus on the corresponding treatments at different stages according to the development pattern of the natural course of cervical spondylosis. Generally speaking, the five sequences in the text can be followed successively and should not be reversed.         1, correct rest: bed rest is the most basic method of treatment of cervical spondylosis, including absolute bed rest and relative bed rest. And bed rest, including hygienic use of bed, hygienic use of pillow, hygienic sleep posture, reasonable sleep time. The etiology of cervical spondylosis is chronic injury, such as unhygienic bed, pillow and sleep posture, which causes instability and irregularity in the anatomical form of the cervical spine, resulting in degenerative changes such as cervical intervertebral discs and cervical osteophytes, which compress or stimulate the surrounding tissues of the cervical spine.  People’s sleep time accounts for about one-third of their lives, and the tissue is in a relaxed non-guarded protective state during sleep, and cannot take the initiative to adopt a protective posture to avoid chronic injury, plus sleep may be an active time period for osteophytes, so when at the top of the prevention and treatment methods, such as sleeping on a hard bed, sleep using a cervical balance brace (as a substitute for a pillow), more lying flat and less side lying not prone, get up early and sleep early, sleep a full 8 hours etc.  2, the right movement: the movement mentioned here, including the static state and dynamic state of the movement.  Static state of movement such as standing, sitting posture must maintain a straight state of the neck, chest and back, because the biomechanical equilibrium of the spine must be reflected in the frontal view of the upright state of the spine and the lateral view of the normal physiological curvature, which is the biomechanical equilibrium of the spine, any frontal view of the spine is not upright and the lateral view of the abnormal physiological curvature is bound to cause the biomechanical imbalance of the spine, which is an important spinal degeneration. This is an important cause of spinal degeneration. The old saying: sitting like a bell, standing like a pine, is consistent with this.  Power state of the movement, you can choose suitable for cervical functional exercise cervical spine exercise, eight duanjin, five birds play, etc.. On this basis, you can further do appropriate jogging, open walking, swimming, playing ball and other sports.  3.Regular non-surgical treatment: such as massage, physiotherapy, hot compress, acupuncture, traction, etc.  4.Medication: including external and internal use, of course, the first choice is external use, the second choice is internal use.  5.Surgical treatment: If the regular non-surgical treatment is really ineffective, and the condition keeps getting worse, only then consider surgical treatment.  In short, the causes of cervical spondylosis are multifaceted, and prevention and treatment is a systematic project. We can grasp the main causes and the parts of the main causes that carry great weight. For most people, the main external cause of cervical spondylosis is chronic injury, that is to say, poor working posture during the day and unsuitable bed and pillow at night are the biggest external causes, which must be solved. Only by grasping the main contradiction can we get twice the result with half the effort and prevent cervical spondylosis immediately, efficiently and with long-term curative effect. Some patients and a few doctors wrongly regard the treatment of osteophytes and elimination of bone spurs as the goal of cervical spondylosis treatment, and the adverse results are obvious. Therefore, if only an X-ray reveals osteophytes in the cervical spine without any symptoms, there is no need to do any treatment; however, daily health care and careful care of the neck are beneficial and harmless to all people.
