Usually resulting from ageing and wear and tear of the spinal discs, cervical spondylosis—also known as neck arthritis—is a degenerative disorder afflicting the cervical spine. Discs that lose moisture and suppleness can shrink or produce bone spurs, which would cause stiffness, pain, and limited neck motion. Typical complaints include headaches, shoulder pain, neck discomfort, and occasionally tingling or numbness in the hands and arms brought on by nerve compression.
Although the main cause is ageing, poor posture, a sedentary lifestyle, past neck injuries, and repeated neck motions can aggravate the disorder more quickly. Cervical spondylosis can cause cervical myelopathy in severe cases, which would affect coordination and muscle weakness.
Usually, to evaluate bone and nerve involvement, diagnosis consists of physical examination, X-rays, MRI, or CT scans. Through physical therapy, drugs, cervical collars, and occasionally steroid injections, treatment emphasises pain relief and functional improvements. When conservative approaches fail, one may consider surgery.
Using ergonomic furniture, staying physically active, and maintaining excellent posture help either prevent or control symptoms. Early intervention and long-term spine health depend on regular medical exams.
