Relieve and Prevent Cervical Spondylosis


Cervical spondylosis is always a high-risk disease. Factors increasing your risk of cervical spondylosis include: sedentary jobs, fast-paced work, pressure, cervical dislocation, insufficient blood supply to the brain…

 

May 21 is World Spine Day. Professor Chen Zhineng, doctor of Zhongshan Hospital of Zhejiang Province, was invited to hold a lecture on preventing cervical spondylosis.

Acquiring more knowledge about cervical spondylosis is crucial for both doctors and patients. It may reduces the morbidity and delay the recurrence.

 

Though cervical spondylosis often occur in elder generation, the lesions usually appear in the young age. Due to metabolic capacity, symptoms will not be shown in the early period. As time goes by, metabolic capacity will be reduced and destroyed, people with cervical spondylosis will show significant symptoms. If health protection measures could be adopted, morbidity could be reduced, and recurrence could be delayed.

Treatment:

  • Keep correct posture of your head and neck, and exercise regularly.
  • Keep favourite sleep position, and better use cervical pillow to protect your cervical spine.
  • Your pillow should be about 10cm high.
  • Do not work in the same position more than one hour, and relieve your muscle.
  • Watch TV in a proper posture.
