Patients often think that the bone spurs seen on X-ray in the cervical spine are cervical spondylosis, but this is not true. Because cervical spondylosis is a complex clinical syndrome of cervical spine technology, it not only has abnormal performance on X-ray, but also has corresponding clinical symptoms due to the stimulation or compression of the nervous system or vertebral artery caused by pathological changes in the cervical spine. As for the cervical spine spurs seen on X-rays, they are only changes in the cervical spine to adapt to changes in stress, and orthopedic surgeons consider them to be a sign of degeneration. Many studies have shown that in men over 50 years of age and women over 60 years of age, most normal people can have varying degrees of cervical spine osteophytes; those over 70 years of age almost always have osteoarthrosis changes on X-ray, but most do not show clinical symptoms. The reason is that the bone spurs in the cervical spine are a manifestation of degeneration and compensation caused by chronic strain or injury to the cervical spine in people’s long-term work and life, and also a defensive response of the cervical spine to adapt to changes in stress. It is both physiological and pathological. It can make the cervical spine, which is unstable due to disc degeneration, more stable, but it can also cause compression of peripheral nerves and blood vessels, resulting in corresponding clinical symptoms. It can be seen that cervical spine spur can be one of the causes of symptoms, but it is not the main basis for the diagnosis of cervical spondylosis. From clinical observation, the symptoms of cervical spondylosis are not proportional to the presence or absence and size of bone spurs, and cervical spondylosis can have osteophytes. However, the presence of osteophytes is not always associated with the symptoms of cervical spondylosis. It can be seen that long bone spurs in the cervical spine are not always cervical spondylosis. When people enter middle age, many people often think that dizziness and tinnitus are caused by cervical spine spurs, but the answer is not necessarily; when some people have numbness in their fingers and arms, they think it is caused by cervical spine spurs, but also not necessarily. There are many similar situations, so I will not repeat them.
