Why does it cause headaches when the cervical spine is bad?

Now, with the entry of the information age, there are more and more electronic products, and the number of users is also increasing year by year. Although electronic products can bring us many benefits, so that we can often see some current events, so that we can keep abreast of domestic and foreign affairs. But the use of electronic products will also bring some bad things, such as cervical spondylosis, because when we play with electronic products, we will often lower our necks, and then make the pressure on the neck too much, resulting in the deformation of the cervical spine.

Cervical spondylosis can occur. And now most people have mild cervical spondylosis, and the age of onset is getting younger.

Generally, people with cervical spondylosis will have a lot of pain in their necks. If it is too severe, it can also cause headaches. This is because there is a problem with the suboccipital muscles of the cervical spine, which will lead to headaches, and the suboccipital muscles have many complex muscle compositions, when we use the cervical spine with our head down for a long time, it will cause the muscles of our entire neck, shoulders and back to be overstretched, which will lead to muscle spasm and pain.

So if there is a problem with the suboccipital muscles of the cervical spine, then there will be a headache.

When we have a headache, we can rest in bed for a while, try to keep our head at the same level, and do not turn our head to rest and relax the muscles of the head muscles. If the pain is unbearable, then you can take some painkillers as prescribed by your doctor to relieve the headache. If you feel any discomfort, be sure to go to the hospital for a corresponding examination and**.

In ordinary life, we must pay attention to protect our cervical spine, try to reduce the number of times we bow our heads, and take a break every half an hour or so, so that we can do neck exercises. In winter or when it is colder, be sure to keep your neck warm to prevent the invasion of cold air. You can wear a scarf.

When sleeping or sitting, be sure to maintain the correct posture.

There are several reasons why a bad cervical spine can cause headaches:

Tension headaches caused by cervical spine problems: A bad cervical spine can cause tension and stiffness in the neck muscles, which can spread to the head, causing tension-type headaches. This headache is usually a constant, mild to moderate pain sensation that often feels like a band tightly bound to the head.

Headaches caused by compression of cervical nerve roots: Cervical spine problems can cause nerve roots to be compressed or damaged, causing radiating pain in the head. This headache is usually unilateral and can extend from the neck all the way to the head and face.

Headache caused by carotid artery compression: A bad cervical spine can cause the carotid artery to compress, affecting the blood to the head. This ischemic headache may worsen with head movement or neck twisting.

Cervical spine problems leading to poor head posture: Cervical spine problems can lead to poor head posture, such as using a mobile phone or computer with your head down for long periods of time. Poor head posture can put more strain on the cervical spine, which in turn can cause headaches.

Neuro-muscular factors: Problems with the cervical spine can cause the nerves and muscles in the neck to become abnormally excited, producing a headache sensation.

If you have a bad cervical spine accompanied by headache symptoms, it is recommended to consult a doctor as soon as possible for diagnosis and**. The doctor may perform relevant examinations, such as X-rays, MRIs, etc., to determine the specific ** of the cervical spine problem** and give corresponding **measures**, such as physical**, massage, medication** or surgery, etc. In addition, maintaining a good sitting posture and head posture and avoiding using a mobile phone or computer with your head down for a long time can also help reduce the burden on the cervical spine and relieve headache symptoms.

I think it's probably because the cervical spine is bad, and the blood vessels in the neck are compressed, which leads to a disorder of blood circulation in the brain, which is why the headache occurs.

Cervical spondylosis causes pain and headache, mainly due to the dislocation of the cervical spine and compression of the vascular nerves, resulting in insufficient cerebral blood supply and vascular neuropathic headache. When doing outdoor activities, the amount of exercise should not be too vigorous, and patients can go for long walks, swimming, jogging or traveling.

Headache and some other symptoms are caused by cervical spondylosis compressing nerves, if not in time, the condition will continue to worsen, so suffering from spondylosis must be timely.

This is a complication, and if there is a problem with the cervical spine, it can also lead to migraines, so headaches will occur.

Maybe it's a nerve compression.
