Cervical spondylosis is a common disease among middle-aged and elderly people, but in recent years, the incidence rate has been rising and the age of onset has been advancing. The incidence of cervical spondylosis among long-term desk workers is 4 to 6 times that of non bent workers, and the overall incidence rate has reached 15%. The main symptoms of cervical spondylosis are soreness in the head, neck, shoulders, back, and arms, stiffness in the neck and neck, and limited mobility.
We want to know if we have cervical spondylosis. Apart from going to the hospital for formal and systematic examinations, what else can we do?
By following the following two methods, we can preliminarily determine whether there is a problem with our cervical spine:
Check the range of motion of the cervical spine: slowly rotate the head in all directions to see if there is any pain in the neck.
Check the affected area of the cervical spine: Slightly lower your head, start from the most prominent seventh cervical spine and gently press the cervical spine and left and right sides with your hand. If there is tenderness or if a hard lump resembling a lock or sand is felt, it may be the cause of cervical problems.
