Treatment of ankylosing cervical spondylosis

Treatment of ankylosing cervical spondylosis

1. Ankylosing cervical spondylosis is mainly caused by bad living habits and working postures. For example, the sleeping pillow is too high, too soft, and bowing for a long time. If you face the computer or mobile phone for a long time, it will cause stiffness of the soft tissue behind the neck. Games, leading to ankylosing cervical spondylosis, in this case, will cause an imbalance in the mechanical balance inside and outside the spine, compress or stimulate the blood vessels, nerves and spinal cord in the neck, and cause pain in the head, neck, middle upper back and chest. Even combined with physical dysfunction, if this series of symptoms is mild, there will be headaches, dizziness, nausea and vomiting, neck and shoulder pain, numbness of the upper limbs, weakness, tinnitus, blurriness, and even chest tightness and discouragement. In severe cases, it may lead to quadriplegia, dysfunction, and even life-threatening. Therefore, it is necessary to actively correct the neck posture and change the posture regularly. If surgery is required, active surgical treatment is required.

2. There is no ankylosing cervical spondylosis in the classification of cervical spondylosis, but some patients think that the neck is very stiff and strong, and their name is called ankylosing cervical spondylosis, which is just a manifestation of cervical spondylosis. Patients with cervical spondylosis have cervical degeneration, nerve compression, and neck muscle spasm, which make the neck muscles feel strong. The treatment is the same as general cervical spondylosis. Conservative treatment is preferred. It can be well treated through physical therapy such as electrotherapy, magnetic therapy, massage, traction, and some medical treatments such as relieving inflammation, nourishing nerves, and improving blood circulation. Ankylosing cervical spondylosis is a severe pain symptom of cervical spondylosis. The neck muscles are strongly spasmodic, and self-protection prevents the pain symptoms from worsening, resulting in limited neck movement and neck stiffness. It is mostly caused by acute prolapse of the cervical intervertebral disc. Cervical MRI examination can make a clear diagnosis. If the cervical intervertebral disc is obviously prolapsed, it is recommended to be careful with cervical traction and massage to prevent the cervical intervertebral disc prolapse from aggravating spinal cord compression and causing paralysis. Non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs can be given for symptomatic treatment.
