Cervical spondylosis has become an epidemic in modern society, especially for office workers, who are embarrassed to face colleagues without cervical spondylosis.
Cervical spondylosis as a strain disease, is quietly endangering the health of many people, do not think that cervical spondylosis is just a "small problem", once missed the best treatment time, you may leave a lifelong regret.
What are the dangers of cervical spondylosis?
1. Neck and shoulder damage
Cervical spondylosis and long-term sedentary or engaged in heavy physical labor have a lot to do, once suffering from cervical spondylosis, not only will lead to damage to the cervical joints, but also lead to cervical peripheral nerve tissue, as well as shoulders are damaged to varying degrees.
Patients often experience neck and shoulder pain, numbness, stiffness, and severe patients can also cause restriction of neck movement.
2. Upper limb soreness
Because cervical spondylosis is a non-localized disease, it will cause great harm to the surrounding tissues after the onset of the disease, especially the upper limbs will also appear sore, numb, weak and other uncomfortable manifestations because they are implicated.
If it is not treated in a timely and effective manner, it will even lead to problems such as insufficient grip strength of both hands, so it must be actively treated after suffering from cervical spondylosis.
3. Chest tightness and shortness of breath
Once you suffer from sympathetic cervical spondylosis, it will lead to excessive excitement of the sympathetic nervous system, which will increase vascular tension, and then induce panic and chest tightness, shortness of breath and other adverse reactions.
After encountering this problem, we must not take it lightly, we should actively go to the hospital for examination, and then treat according to the actual condition, only in this way can we alleviate the symptoms of cervical spondylosis and effectively alleviate the problem of chest tightness and shortness of breath.
4. Poor swallowing
The decline in swallowing ability is related to many reasons, such as suffering from throat diseases, but for patients with cervical spondylosis, if the condition continues to worsen, there may also be problems with poor swallowing.
The reason for this undesirable performance is that the esophagus and the fifth cervical vertebra are closer, and once cervical hyperplasia occurs, it will continue to compress the esophagus, and then there will be poor swallowing.
5. Toothache
It is reasonable to say that the relationship between cervical spondylosis and oral health is not large, but from a clinical point of view, the vast majority of cervical spondylosis patients will have toothache problems;
The reason is that cervical spondylosis in the process of aggravation, it is easy to damage the neck sympathetic nerves, and then it will also cause adverse harm to the trigeminal nerve, so it will lead to radioactive pain in the gums and teeth.
6. Eye strain
Now the problem of myopia is developing at a young age, so eye health has been deeply concerned by the public, presumably many people can not imagine that cervical spondylosis, but also may damage eye health.
Damage to the cervical spine will affect blood circulation, which will lead to obstruction of blood delivery, which in turn will lead to insufficient blood supply to the eyes, in which case there will be eye fatigue, and even night vision will decline.
The above introduces the causes of cervical spondylosis, as well as the harm of this disease to physical health, the cervical spine as a key position connecting the trunk and the head, once there is strain or disease, it is easy to induce some uncomfortable symptoms.
After the disease will not only affect the flexibility of the cervical spine, but also endanger the health of other organs and tissues of the body, so after the disease must be actively treated, in order to avoid the aggravation of cervical spondylosis.
