Nerve compression in the cervical spine

Nowadays, most people sit at work, facing the computer every day without any exercise. Over time, various problems with the cervical spine will occur. Cervical spondylosis can be serious or minor. Sometimes the pain is very uncomfortable. It not only affects the body but also affects work and life. In more serious cases, the cervical spine may compress the nerves, which is troublesome. Therefore, whether you have cervical spondylosis or not, it is recommended that you do not sit still for a long time.

In fact, the main cause of spinal disease is lack of exercise and sitting for a long time. Therefore, when you are at work, you should always take some time to move around a little, even if it is just to get up and walk a few steps or drink some water. This will not only be good for your health, but also improve cervical spondylosis.

Cervical spondylosis, also known as cervical spondylosis syndrome, is a disease based on degenerative pathological changes. It manifests as a series of pathological changes of cervical disc degeneration itself and its secondary changes, such as vertebral instability and loosening; nucleus pulposus protrusion or extrusion; bone spur formation; ligament hypertrophy and secondary spinal canal stenosis, etc., which stimulate or compress the adjacent nerve roots, spinal cord, vertebral arteries and cervical sympathetic nerves and other tissues, and cause a syndrome of various symptoms and signs.

Nerve compression by the cervical spine is an important cause of cervical spondylosis. Compression of the nerves by the cervical spine can cause a series of symptoms in patients, which will have a great impact on their lives and work. As people age, the cervical spine begins to degenerate to varying degrees. In addition, the high level of activity and long-term wear and tear of the cervical spine accelerate the degeneration process. External factors trigger the annulus fibrosus to rupture and the nucleus pulposus to protrude, which compresses the nerves and induces cervical spondylosis, causing symptoms such as dizziness, headache, weakness in the limbs, decreased vision, tinnitus, and in severe cases, it can also lead to serious consequences such as blindness, deafness, paralysis, and inability to take care of oneself. Treating cervical vertebrae compression of nerves is the process of treating cervical spondylosis.
