Cervical spondylosis in the elderly, why do the elderly suffer from cervical spondylosis?

This kind of condition is complicated, and it must be systematically diagnosed and treated, hospitalized, and not delayed. Once the diagnosis is clear, we can discuss it again.

Foot swelling and pain are not related to cervical spondylosis, and are common diseases of the elderly with poor circulation.

The water content of the intervertebral disc (including cervical spine and lumbar intervertebral disc) reaches 95%, the peripheral nerves are dense, and the surgical drugs are almost ineffective in the long run, and even have the possibility of deterioration, even if the world's most advanced German minimally invasive surgery is as high as 65% after 2-3 years of successful surgery**, the deterioration rate is not low.

Radiation, light wave magnetotherapy, is a catalyst for the deterioration of human cells, please use with caution.

There are many sequelae and complications of spinal diseases, such as spinal stenosis, bone hyperplasia, sciatic nerve and so on. According to statistics, 80% of chronic diseases in the human body are caused by spinal diseases. If you take medicine and surgery, how much medicine will you have to take and how many surgeries you will have to do.

Even if there is no financial problem, the body will not be able to bear it.

Exercise** is the only feasible way to promote the body's own metabolism of nature**. You may not believe it, but please don't forget not to give up after all your efforts fail, please look at the overall rate of more than 90% of spinal system diseases in Fu'an Kang Exercise, which can be prevented at any time.

This situation should belong to the more serious kind of cervical spine compression nerve, it is recommended to use external application of medicinal wine, medicinal wine made of traditional Chinese medicine, through external application is easy to penetrate**, directly to the lesion, drunk eight insects external application of medicinal wine is the first choice.

Big toe exercises can also lead to cervical spondylosis.

In late January 2002, I developed cervical spondylosis. At first, I felt severe soreness in my right elbow joint, which gradually progressed to numbness in my right arm and right hand. There was a rattle as his neck tilted to the left. After examination, he was diagnosed with cervical hyperostosis, spinal canal deformation, and radiculopathy.

At first, I received cervical traction**, and the initial effect was quite good, but then the condition recurred, and my right arm was still numb and weak. I read a lot of books about this disease and gradually became interested in foot reflexes**. In April of the same year, I tried to use the foot reflexes I learned in books to ** myself ** disease, the most important thing is to do big toe exercises.

The specific method is as follows: First, grasp the big toe on the same side with the index finger and thumb (I am numb in the right arm, and the foot reflex area is at the base of the right big toe), and pull the big toe up and down until the toe is sore. Then grasp the big toe and turn it gently, starting with a smaller amplitude and gradually increasing the circle amplitude; Then turn in a different direction.

These two activities will last for a total of 5 minutes. When you're done, bring your toes together and up, straightening the soles of your feet at the same time. Do it once or twice a day.

In the first half month, when I wrenched and turned my big toe, the reflex area of the neck; The pain at the base of the big toe was unbearable, but after persisting for half a month, the pain was reduced and the condition began to improve. A month later, the intractable cervical spondylosis was able to **, and the cervical spine was no longer loud when the head was tilted to the left.

The more common clinical symptoms include hand numbness, dizziness, headache, insomnia, neck and shoulder pain, easy stiff neck, nausea, palpitation, tinnitus and weakness, cold and numbness of the hands, numbness in the neck, weakness of both lower limbs, sweating and other symptoms. Cervical spondylosis can cause cerebral insufficiency, resulting in "cervicogastric syndrome", "cervical-heart syndrome", and the later development of cervical spine lesions, which generally causes symptoms such as cervical spine soreness, dizziness, and hand numbness, which may affect the daily life and work of patients in a light way, and can lose the ability to work in severe cases, and even cause paralysis in severe cases.

**Cervical spondylosis is generally treated with medication**, non-invasive release**, three-dimensional balance reduction**, ultrasonic conductance, drug ion penetration, physics**, surgery ** and other methods. Traditional Chinese medicine, massage, massage can only temporarily relieve pain symptoms, can not achieve the purpose, take more medicine on the organs, organs will have a certain impact, and non-standard massage, massage will aggravate the condition of cervical spondylosis, can not fundamentally solve the problem. Applying plasters is the easiest way to apply plasters for cervical spondylosis, and the current effect is relatively good, such as Yangjia musculoskeletal ointment, which is sold on Taobao. s

Try Boying Olive Candy, I heard that the effect is good, and the effect on this orthopedic disease is remarkable.

1. Increasing age.

Age is one of the most important elements of cervical spondylosis, middle-aged people with the increase of age, the wear and tear of various organs of the human body is also increasing, and various ligaments between the vertebrae and vertebrae will also occur various degenerative lesions, resulting in the onset of lesions.

2. Trauma. Because neck trauma left over from adolescence is an important factor leading to the onset of diseases in middle age, such as cervical fracture and cervical dislocation. Fragments of cervical vertebrae with bone displacement can directly compress the spinal cord or vascular nerves, and then constitute cervical spondylosis.

Neck trauma can cause subluxation or dislocation of the vertebral body, narrowing the spinal canal, and compression of the spinal cord or nerves, leading to a range of clinical manifestations.

3. Degenerative changes of cervical intervertebral disc.

Each intervertebral disc in a middle-aged patient consists of a fibrous annulus, a nucleus pulposus, and a transparent plate of the vertebral body. With the increase of age, the cervical intervertebral disc will have a certain degree of degeneration, such as bone spur formation, etc., resulting in the compression and impact of spinal nerve roots, vertebral arteries or spinal cord, and then leading to a series of manifestations and cervical spondylosis.

What about spondylosis in the elderly?

1.Elderly patients with cervical spondylosis should pay attention to the combination of movement and static. Every hour or so of sitting for a long time, you have to stand up and do exercises.

Move the limbs and cervical spine. Eliminate fatigue of neck muscles and ligaments and prevent strain. To prevent alcohol abuse, alcohol can affect calcium deposits on bones.

It makes the elderly susceptible to osteoporosis, which in turn accelerates the degeneration of cervical spondylosis.

2.Elderly patients with cervical spondylosis must pay attention to maintaining their head and neck in their daily life. Don't tilt your head and shrug your shoulders, read a book.

When operating the computer, look head-on. Keep your spine straight and choose the right pillow when you sleep. Don't lie down and read a book or watch TV.

The elderly should pay attention to keeping warm with cervical spondylosis, and do not blow directly with electric fans and air conditioners. Summer is the most likely time for cervical spondylosis in the elderly.

3.Elderly patients with cervical spondylosis can usually do some exercises. Sit as little as possible and move as much as possible, and if you can walk, don't ride.

If you can ride, don't take a bike. It is necessary to set aside a certain amount of time every day to exercise, and pay attention to the exercise of strengthening the neck and shoulder muscles. You can do forward bending and rotation movements of the head and both upper limbs.

There are many benefits for elderly patients with cervical spondylosis.

How can I prevent spondylosis in the elderly?

1. The weather is getting cooler, and the neck will be induced by wind and cold, and cervical muscles will spasm, muscle fibrositis, etc., so pay attention to keeping warm.

2. Appropriate neck exercises, such as duck drinking water and shaking the head.

3. Do some aerobic exercise often, pay attention to neck warmth, correct bad posture, and take a break and activity in the middle of long-term work with your head down.

4. For acute tonsillitis, cervical lymphadenitis, mastoiditis, upper respiratory tract infection, neck soft tissue infection, etc., some people's cervical spine will be invaded, resulting in acute neck pain, unfavorable activity, muscle spasm, and muscular torticollis in severe cases.

5. Pay attention to the dietary structure, the daily diet is not easy to be too refined, eat more beans, cereals, vegetables, eat more fish, shrimp, milk, eggs to supplement food calcium, and prevent osteoporosis.

6. Develop a good sleeping posture, the pillow should not be too high, generally 250px, in line with the physiological curvature of the human cervical spine, and the softness and hardness are moderate.

Don't exert yourself too much, but be active in moderation.

Cervical spondylosis in the elderly is mainly due to long-term strain of the cervical spine, hyperostosis or intervertebral disc herniation, which leads to compression of the spinal nerve roots or vertebral arteries of the cervical spine, and a series of symptoms appear.

For patients with cervical spondylosis, it is divided into non-surgical and surgical. Patients with cervical spondylosis should develop a good habit of using their necks in their daily life and avoid sitting for a long time and bowing their heads; At the same time, don't sleep on too high pillows when sleeping, and you can also do some neck medical gymnastics under the guidance of a doctor. These methods are effective in relieving the symptoms of neck pain.

At the same time, it can also be combined with some drugs**, such as some anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving drugs, vitamin drugs, nerve-nourishing drugs, cartilage protection drugs, etc. These drugs have a certain effect on relieving symptoms and improving the function of the cervical spine. Of course, when severe nerve or vascular compression is ineffective, surgery may be required.

The main aspects are as follows. One is to improve your lifestyle and avoid bowing your head for a long time. The second is to exercise the shoulder and neck muscles and do rice exercises. The third is oral medicine to nourish the nerves and relieve pain. Surgery if necessary**.

Good afternoon. For the elderly cervical spondylosis, it is mainly caused by the compression of the nerves and blood vessels in the neck caused by the metamorphosis of the cervical vertebrae, bone hyperplasia, intervertebral disc herniation and ligament calcification.

Therefore, after this situation occurs, the elderly must avoid long-term activities with their heads bowed, and pay more attention to the warmth of the neck and avoid getting cold, so as not to lead to the aggravation of the intervertebral disc herniation in the neck and the aggravation of vertebral bone hyperplasia, which will cause the aggravation of neurovascular compression, which will aggravate the clinical symptoms of cervical spondylosis.

Hope that helps, thanks.
