What causes mild cervical bone hyperplasia?

Mild bone hyperplasia of the cervical spine may be related to factors such as aging, long-term bad posture and lack of exercise. As we age, the human skeleton gradually degenerates and ages as if after years of use. The cartilage of the cervical spine will slowly wear out, leading to bone hyperplasia. Almost like an old car will wear out after long-term use, the cervical spine is also gradually changing with continuous use. Long-term bowing of the head, working at a desk or maintaining a bad sitting posture will increase the burden on the neck and accelerate the degeneration of the cervical spine. Insufficient exercise will affect bone health, because moderate exercise can promote blood circulation and help maintain strong bones.

The specific manifestations are stiffness and soreness in the neck, and even slight pain during activities. This is because the small protrusions of bone hyperplasia stimulate the surrounding tissues. The cervical spine can be imagined as a "noodle" whose toughness gradually decreases. Once it is under too much pressure, it is easy to "break". Although this cervical spine disease is mild at this stage, it may worsen if not paid attention to in time, causing more serious problems, such as nerve compression or other functional disorders.

So how to deal with it? Adjust your posture at work and in life, and avoid bowing your head or sitting in a single posture for long periods of time. Get up and move around every hour, and do some simple cervical spine stretching exercises. Add foods rich in calcium and vitamin D to your diet to help strengthen bones. Increase exercise appropriately, such as swimming and Tai Chi, to improve blood circulation, while strengthening muscles and reducing the burden on the cervical spine. When self-adjustment is difficult to relieve or when serious symptoms occur, it is recommended to seek medical attention in a timely manner and receive professional medical advice and treatment plans.
