Cervical vertebrae hyperplasia, stiffness, nausea and vomiting

The treatment for stiffness, nausea and vomiting caused by cervical spondylosis is medication relief, physical therapy and lifestyle adjustment. The causes include long-term poor posture, cervical degeneration and nerve compression. Cervical spondylosis is a pathological phenomenon of abnormal proliferation of the edge of the cervical bones. It is common in middle-aged and elderly people. Long-term bowing, uneven neck force or cervical degeneration are the main causes. The hyperplastic bone may compress the surrounding nerves or blood vessels, causing stiffness and pain in the neck, and even affecting blood supply to the brain, causing symptoms such as nausea and vomiting.

1. Drug treatment is a direct means of relieving symptoms. Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen and diclofenac sodium can relieve pain and inflammation; muscle relaxants such as eperisone can relieve neck muscle tension; neurotrophic drugs such as methylcobalamin can improve nerve function and reduce the occurrence of nausea and vomiting.

2. Physical therapy can help restore cervical function. Cervical traction can relieve nerve compression and improve blood circulation; hot compresses or infrared therapy can relieve muscle stiffness; neck massage or acupuncture can promote local blood circulation and relieve pain and discomfort.

3. Lifestyle adjustment is the key to prevention and treatment. Avoid bowing your head for long periods of time, and maintain a correct sitting and sleeping posture; choose a suitable pillow, avoid one that is too high or too low; perform appropriate neck exercises, such as neck stretching and rotation, to strengthen the neck muscles.

4. Seek medical attention promptly for severe symptoms. If you experience frequent nausea and vomiting or are accompanied by dizziness, blurred vision, or other symptoms, it may be that cervical spondylosis is compressing nerves or blood vessels more severely. Imaging examinations such as X-rays, CT scans, or MRIs are required. If necessary, surgical treatments such as anterior cervical decompression and fusion or posterior laminoplasty may be considered.

Symptoms of stiffness, nausea, and vomiting caused by cervical spondylosis require comprehensive treatment. Early intervention can effectively relieve discomfort and improve the quality of life. Through medication, physical therapy, and lifestyle adjustments, the symptoms of most patients can be controlled, but if the symptoms persist or worsen, you should seek medical attention in time to avoid worsening of the disease.
