Cervical calcification is the calcification of the non-bone structures of the cervical spine. It is formed by the deposition of calcium salts during the repair process at the site of injury. Calcification is formed when calcium salts are deposited during the repair process of non-bone structures of the cervical spine, such as ligaments and intervertebral discs, after an injury has occurred. A small calcification is a pathologic phenomenon that does not usually cause clinical symptoms and is mostly found during a cervical spine examination. If the calcification is large or located in the spinal canal, it will compress the nerves and other tissues and cause clinical symptoms. For example, disc calcification can compress the spinal nerve roots, resulting in pain and numbness in the neck, shoulder, back and upper extremities. If the pain and numbness are mild, conservative treatments such as neck massage, hot compresses and other physiotherapy can be chosen. Oral anti-inflammatory and analgesic medications such as nimesulide and diclofenac sodium and neurotrophic medications such as methylcobalamin and adenosinecobalamin can be prescribed by the doctor. If the calcification is large and the compression of spinal nerves is more serious, it needs to be surgically removed. If the symptoms of cervical spine calcification occur, it is recommended that patients go to the hospital to improve the examination and receive regular treatment.
