Degenerative degeneration of the thoracic spine requires the following treatment: 1. General treatment. During the treatment period, the patient is required to stay strictly in bed and rest, and should never do such actions as sitting or standing with the head down. 2. For some patients with mild symptoms, they can be treated with anti-inflammatory, anti-swelling, pain-relieving and muscle spasm-relieving drugs, such as diclofenac sodium, together with drugs such as ethylphenidate hydrochloride, which can be taken orally. 3. For patients with very obvious or heavy symptoms, continuous hospitalization and intravenous use of drugs with the above-mentioned effects are required. In addition, the physical therapy methods of Chinese medicine, such as acupuncture, massage, cupping, traction, and herbal fumigation, are also very effective in the treatment of this type of disease. 4. In some cases, surgery may be required. The principle of surgery is to remove the above mentioned hyperplasia and protrusion to avoid compression of the thoracic medulla and related nerve roots.
