Causes of dizziness caused by cervical spondylosis

The reason why cervical spondylosis causes dizziness is that sometimes due to the looseness of the cervical joints, the abnormal movement between the joints causes abnormal blood supply to the vertebral artery, such as vascular spasm, transient cerebral ischemia, especially cerebellar ischemia, and the patient will experience dizziness, even nausea and vomiting. In particular, the instability of the cervical spine can cause dizziness in the head. 1. The blood vessels supplying the brain all pass through the front of the cervical vertebrae or through the cervical vertebral foramen; 2. In particular, the vertebral artery forms the basilar artery after it goes up from the transverse foramen of the cervical vertebrae; 3. It supplies blood to the cerebellum and the posterior 1/3 of the brain.

Does cervical spondylosis cause itching?

Cervical spondylosis generally does not itch, and usually manifests as weakness in the upper limbs, numbness in the fingers, and pain in the neck and back. If there is pain, sedatives, vitamin B1 and other drugs can be used for treatment under guidance. If there is spinal cord compression, surgical treatment is required. In life, pay attention to rest more, do not let the neck be too tired, you can do some neck exercises to relax the neck muscles; at the same time, pay attention to keeping the affected area warm in cold weather.

Can numbness in hands and feet due to cervical spondylosis heal itself?

There are many reasons for numbness in the limbs, among which cervical spondylosis rarely causes numbness in the limbs of the human body. Most of them are unilateral, and there are also bilateral ones, but bilateral ones are rare. The reason why cervical spondylosis causes numbness and pain in the limbs, or limb incoordination, clumsiness and numbness of the limbs, is mainly because of the protrusion of some intervertebral discs, the ossification of the subsequent effects, and some hyperplastic ossification of regular small joints, which cause compression of the spinal nerves and bring about symptoms. Therefore, it will not be relieved by itself, unless surgery, such as minimally invasive surgery or open surgery, is performed to relieve the compression, which can generally relieve the symptoms of numbness and pain caused by cervical spondylosis. In clinical practice, it is generally unrealistic to relieve the numbness caused by cervical spondylosis without surgical treatment.
