Recently in outpatient clinics, many patients choose to come to orthopedics to look at the cervical spine after having seen cardiology, neurology, otolaryngology and Chinese medicine. Often, many of the original symptoms are found to be caused by the cervical spine. What is cervical spondylosis? Simply put, it is: various clinical symptoms caused by the degeneration of the cervical spine that stimulates the spinal cord, nerves, sympathetic nerves, vertebral arteries and other adjacent tissue structures by compression. The common ones are: neck and shoulder pain, upper limb string pain, hand numbness, dizziness, and unstable walking. However, there are others that are uncommon and need to be differentiated from other systemic diseases by dominant hou. Many people think that although cervical spondylosis is difficult and painful to treat, it is not fatal and is not a life-threatening disease. In fact, this view is wrong. Cervical spondylosis can cause cervical heart syndrome: manifested as pain in the precordial region, chest tightness, arrhythmia (such as premature beats, etc.) and ST-segment changes in the electrocardiogram, which is very easy to be misdiagnosed as coronary heart disease. Unnecessary medication treatment damages one’s heart and blood vessels. More seriously, cervical spondylosis can cause the patient’s blood pressure to increase or decrease, with the increase in blood pressure being the most common, called “cervical hypertension”. Since cervical spondylosis and hypertension are both common diseases among middle-aged and elderly people, they often coexist. How many patients with cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases die and are disabled due to cerebral hemorrhage caused by hypertension, only knowing the danger of hypertension, not knowing that the disease is at its root, and how many patients die without realizing that they died of cervical spondylosis, not hypertension. Three kinds of people vulnerable to cervical spondylosis: 1, the buttocks sticky chair: office white-collar workers, computer workers, will remember, writers and other long-term ambulatory workers; 2, occupational hazards: teachers, drivers, assembly line workers, etc. more than 5 hours a day to maintain a posture, half a day without activity, prone to osteophytes. 3, people old disease since the: 40, 50 years old in the middle-aged and elderly, for some reason cervical spondylosis came, the reason is years of accumulation of strain, coupled with the usual exercise less, creating bone natural physiological aging, muscle strain. The danger of cervical spondylosis is not only in the cervical spine: 1, swallowing disorders: a sense of obstruction when swallowing, a foreign body feeling in the esophagus, a few people have nausea, vomiting, hoarseness, dry cough, chest tightness and other symptoms. 2, visual impairment: manifested as vision loss, eye distension, photophobia, lacrimation, pupil size, and even visual field reduction and sharp vision loss, and individual patients may also become blind. 3, cervical heart syndrome: manifested as pain in the precordial region, chest tightness, arrhythmia (such as premature beats, etc.) and electrocardiogram ST segment changes, easily misdiagnosed as coronary heart disease. 4, hypertensive cervical spondylosis: can cause blood pressure to rise or fall, with blood pressure rising more often, known as “cervical hypertension”. Since cervical spondylosis and hypertension are both common diseases among middle-aged and elderly people, they often coexist. 5. Chest pain: It manifests as a slow onset of intractable unilateral pain in the pectoralis major muscle and breast, with pressure pain in the pectoralis major muscle during examination. Lower limb paralysis: early manifestation of lower limb numbness, pain, limp, some patients have a feeling like stepping on cotton when walking, individual patients may also be accompanied by defecation, urination disorders, such as urinary frequency, urinary urgency, urinary incontinence or incontinence, etc. 7, sudden collapse: often in standing or walking due to sudden head twisting body loss of support and sudden collapse, can quickly wake up after falling, not accompanied by impaired consciousness, and no sequelae cervical spondylosis common seven kinds of hazards: cervical spondylosis hazard one: subhealth, premature aging, emotional instability, seriously affect the quality of life and work. Cervical spondylosis hazard two: insidious attack, easy to be ignored in the early and middle stages, and the risk of paralysis in the late stage. Cervical spondylosis hazard three: it is an important cause of unstable blood pressure, cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases and chronic diseases of the five senses. Cervical spondylosis hazard four: it causes headache, vertigo, tinnitus, blurred vision, poor memory and slow reaction. Cervical spondylosis hazard five: causes panic, chest tightness, shortness of breath, erratic heartbeat, atrial fibrillation, etc. Cervical spondylosis hazard six: more than 90% have various symptoms of menopausal syndrome and plant nerve dysfunction. Cervical spondylosis hazard seven: causes chronic stomach pain and gastrointestinal dysfunction. Cervical spondylosis has 9 serious consequences: 1, stroke: more than 90% of stroke patients have cervical spondylosis, and many people still do not know the cause after a stroke. 2, insomnia, neurasthenia: 70% of people with this type of disease are clinically observed to be triggered by cervical spondylosis. 3, sudden onset of vertigo: mainly due to compression of the vertebral artery, sudden fainting often has serious consequences. 4.Severe memory loss: caused by the compression of the vertebral artery by the cervical spine, which can seriously renew a brain infarction or even a brain hemorrhage. 5, neck stiffness can not be turned: cervical spondylosis due to vertebral degeneration, ligament calcification will lead to limited neck movement. 6.Phytodysfunction: caused by compression of the posterior wall of the esophagus by the bone of the anterior edge of the vertebra or stimulation of the surrounding soft tissue reaction. 7.Upper limb pain and weakness: caused by intervertebral compression of nerve roots, which can affect both sides of the torso at the same time and develop more rapidly. 8.High paraplegia: cervical spine osteophytes and bone spurs compressing the nerve roots and spinal cord in the neck, leading to the onset of paralysis. 9.Deafness: caused by stimulation or compression of sympathetic postganglionic fibers next to the cervical spine, often accompanied by blurred vision, etc.
