Does running work for cervical spondylosis

Running is not useful for cervical spondylosis. When patients with cervical spondylosis are running, the muscles around the cervical spine remain in a state of stress for a long time and are constantly pulled with the running movement, which will easily lead to excessive stress on the cervical spine, resulting in compression of the cervical intervertebral discs, which may aggravate the condition of cervical spondylosis. Therefore, for patients with cervical spondylosis, running is useless. In addition, after a lot of running exercise, patients with cervical spondylosis are prone to soreness and pain in shoulder and neck muscles due to the accumulation of lactic acid, which may aggravate the local muscle injury, and it is also not conducive to the recovery of cervical spondylosis. Patients with cervical spondylosis should pay attention not to work for a long time with the head down, pay attention to intermittent rest, and move the neck at the right time, and should pay attention to the sleeping posture, so as not to aggravate the symptoms of cervical spondylosis.
