Cervical Problem
Cervical spondylosis is a general term for age-related wear and tear affecting the spinal disks in your neck. As the disks dehydrate and shrink, signs of osteoarthritis develop, including bony projections along the edges of bones (bone spurs).
Cervical spondylosis is very common and worsens with age. More than 85 percent of people older than age 60 are affected by cervical spondylosis.
Symptoms:
Neck pain or stiffness. This may be the main symptom. Pain may get worse when you move your neck.
Dizziness.
A clicking, popping or grinding sound when you move your neck.
A nagging soreness in the neck.
Muscle spasms.
Frequently Asked Questions:
In some cases, physical therapy may include posture therapy or the use of traction to gently stretch the joints and muscles of your neck. Physical therapy programs vary in length, but generally last from 6 to 8 weeks.
Symptoms of cervical spondylosis include neck pain and shoulder pain. The pain can be severe in some cases.
