The medicine pillow is very popular because it plays a role in medicine for a long time during sleep, without damage, pain, and time.

If the above methods are too troublesome, it is recommended to use traditional Chinese medicine topical solution for external application penetration**!

If there is anything unclear, you can add me for consultation.

Cervical spondylosis often occurs in middle age or older, degenerative changes in the cervical spine, coupled with acute and chronic injuries, resulting in different degrees of damage to the intervertebral disc, ligaments, and posterior joint capsule, which promotes compensatory hyperplasia of the cervical spine, and the growth directly or indirectly compresses the nerves to produce a series of symptoms such as neck, occipital, shoulder and arm pain and numbness, and limited neck movement. 15 grams of kudzu, 15 grams of clematis, 15 grams of white peony, 30 grams of chicken blood vine, 12 grams of earth dragon, 12 grams of turmeric, 10 grams of parsnip, 10 grams of beetle beads, 6 grams of boiled licorice.

What about cervical spondylosis**?

Cervical spondylosis** is more complicated, and cervical spondylosis** is more cumbersome, and it cannot be cured in one or two strokes.

Principle of cervical spondylosis**

**Policy: Control symptoms, reduce**, and improve the quality of life of patients. General**:

Exercise**, use traction with caution**. Warm compresses: hot towels and hot water bottles can be used for topical application, and warm compresses should not be applied when the pain symptoms are severe in the acute stage**.

physiotherapy, traction** (must be done in the hospital), etc.

Medications**: Analgesics, sedatives, vitamins (e.g., B1, B12) can be used selectively to relieve symptoms. It can be applied externally (Jiyu, Tang cervical vertebrae, Shungu Anyu sticker) The effect is particularly good.

Surgery**: Patients with severe nerve root or spinal cord compression may be operated on if necessary**.

Other**: Exercise**, use traction with caution**. Warm compresses: hot towels and hot water bottles can be used for topical application, and warm compresses should not be applied when the pain symptoms are severe in the acute stage**. physiotherapy, traction** (must be done in the hospital), etc.

Exercise method: 1. Twist the head to the left as much as possible, twist it in one direction to the maximum, and then twist it in the opposite direction, and repeat repeatedly.

Twenty or thirty times.

2. Start your head from below, then to the left, then to the back, then to the right, so that you can go around in a circle, and then rotate in the opposite direction, from bottom to right to back to left. And so on and so forth.

Twenty or thirty times.

3. Lower your head to your chest as much as possible, stay for a while, and then tilt your head back to the maximum, which is repeated more than 20 to 30 times.

4. Touch your shoulders with both hands (your left hand touches your left shoulder, your right hand touches your right shoulder), and then rotates your shoulders from front to back. Rotate the left and then the right. It is also possible to rotate dozens of times on one side and then switch to the other side. You can also rotate your shoulders without touching your hands.

5. Lift the left shoulder up (shrug) and keep the right shoulder still, then lift the right shoulder up and keep the left shoulder still. Finally, lift both shoulders up. This is repeated dozens of times.

6. Stretch your left hand up from the lower part of your back, the back of your hand is against your back, and your right hand is down from the top of your right shoulder, with your palm facing your back, and then the next action is just to reverse your left and right hands. Basically, the number of exercises is about the same as the previous movements.

The vast majority of cervical spondylosis is mainly conservative. For example, the slight ** type of intervertebral disc herniation, the more radical ** can be fixed with neck circumference to correct the neck posture. The cervical vertebrae of normal people are in a C-shaped shape with a protruding protrusion, which is called the physiological curvature.

When this physiological curvature becomes straight, it is easy to aggravate. Slight protrusion, wearing a neck circumference to restore the C-shape of the cervical spine to protrusion, many patients' symptoms can be improved. For type ** intervertebral disc herniation, it can be improved by wearing neck circumference.

Root-type intervertebral discs, in fact, it is also possible to wear neck circumference. The patient's symptoms are mainly numbness, and it can also be used as an adjunct to nerve nutrition, such as methylcobalamin, etc. For patients with predominantly vertigo, calcium antagonists can also be used to improve symptoms.

If cervical spondylosis develops further, such as the ** type compresses the spinal canal lumen of the cervical spine, the anteroposterior diameter is 10mm, and the effective diameter is even 6mm-8mm, the patient's lower limbs can no longer walk, and the patient can be operated on**. Surgery for cervical spondylosis** or anterior cervical surgery is more appropriate. For anterior cervical surgery, if the relatively fresh intervertebral disc herniation, you can even remove the nucleus pulposus and place an artificial intervertebral disc, of course, this is a strict indication.

The vast majority of patients should be treated with anterior intervertebral disc nucleus pulposus extraction followed by fusion fixation. This is the first type for cervical spondylosis. Of course, the ** type of cervical spondylosis is the main spinal stenosis, especially the ligamentum flavum hyperplasia behind the cervical spine, and posterior surgery can also be taken.

Posterior surgery can also be done to remove the lamina, plus the removal of ossified and hardened ligaments, many patients can also get good results. For radiculotype disc herniation, the symptoms can be improved after posterior intervertebral spine surgery and deroofing, and the anterior method can directly remove the nucleus pulposus. Both methods are possible.

At present, for vascular disc herniation, such as caused by focal intervertebral disc vertebral artery compression stenosis, if the patient has no neurological symptoms, a stent can be placed through the vertebral artery, etc., and the effect is also very good.

Let's share a simple exercise that can also effectively prevent and improve cervical spondylosis.

What about cervical spondylosis**?

If it is a slight cervical spine discomfort, it can be used with medication and physiotherapy, and if it is more serious, it needs to be minimally invasive.

There are those who do traditional Chinese medicine massage, and there are those who do acupuncture and moxibustion, and take medicine, that is, they are taken internally and externally, plus acupuncture and massage, and they are used together

Answering the ** of cervical spondylosis needs to be different according to the different types of cervical spondylosis, such as the ** of cervical myelopathy, in the early stage, you should do more functional exercises of the cervical spine, and at the same time cooperate with dehydration**, blood circulation and stasis**, but when the disease progresses to a more severe degree, it can only be through surgery**. The vast majority of patients with cervical radiculopathy can avoid surgery, but with the functional exercise of the neck and the electric traction of the cervical spine, relatively good results can generally be obtained. Sympathetic nervous spondylosis and vertebral artery cervical spondylosis need to avoid the causes of the disease on the one hand, and on the other hand, it is necessary to dilate blood vessels and promote blood circulation and eliminate blood stasis**.

Your ** friend, I have a trick. Surgery is required.
