Frequent stiff neck what's going on

Because stiff neck is a word that we can often see or see and hear in our lives, most people do not have a very clear understanding of stiff neck, and do not know that occasional stiff neck may be the result of external reasons, but the long-term cause of stiff neck is within the human body itself.

1. Cervical spondylosis.

We all know that in addition to the head, the more important thing in the human body is the cervical spine, once there is something wrong with the cervical spine or a disease, it can be as small as paralysis and as large as death, but stiff neck occurs in the cervical vertebrae. Therefore, long-term stiff neck is likely to be the result of Jinzhong Bu spondylosis.

2. Sleeping position.

Everyone's sleeping position is different, but sleeping position also affects the organs in our body. If you sleep in the wrong position, such as sleeping on your stomach for a long time, your neck will always remain in the same position, and the muscles will be compressed, so that the lifting will become more tense and stiff, and a stiff neck will be formed.

3. The pillow is too high or too low.

The suitability of the pillow will also affect the quality of people's sleep, and the pillow should not be too high or too low, otherwise it will cause stiff neck.

First, often feel that people must choose a suitable pillow for themselves, the height of the pillow is generally between 10 and 15 cm, of course, everyone's own sleeping habits are different, choose the pillow that suits them, choose the height of the pillow at the same time to pay attention to the softness of the pillow, too hard pillow is easy to make the neck blood flow poor, sleep up will lead to stiff neck.

Second, it is also very necessary to keep the neck warm, people with stiff neck have a certain factor is that the cold invades the neck, resulting in poor blood flow, which will also cause the occurrence of stiff neck, so especially in the cold winter, people who often fall stiff neck must pay more attention to the warmth of their neck, change the quilt, and do not let the body get cold.

Third, to ensure their sleeping position, if people do not have a good sleeping posture when sleeping, it will lead to long-term muscle twisting, and it will take at least seven or eight hours to sleep, and there will definitely be problems when their muscles are twisted for so long, which is why people can't move their necks when they fall into the neck, and they will have severe pain when they move.

If people who always have stiff neck still can't get a good effect with the above methods, it is best to go to the hospital for further examination in time, because people with cervical spondylosis are easily affected by the neck, in order to avoid the aggravation of cervical spondylosis, go to the hospital as soon as possible**.
