Cervical Spondylosis is a degenerative condition affecting the cervical spine, characterized by wear and tear on the vertebral discs and facet joints in the neck. It commonly occurs with aging and involves changes such as the formation of Bone Spurs, disc herniation, and loss of disc height. These degenerative changes can lead to symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness, and, in some cases, radiating pain or numbness in the arms. Risk factors for cervical spondylosis include aging, prolonged poor posture, and prior neck injuries. Diagnosis involves a combination of clinical evaluation, imaging studies like X-rays or MRI, and ruling out other potential causes of symptoms. Treatment options range from conservative measures, including physical therapy, pain management, and lifestyle modifications, to more invasive interventions such as steroid injections or surgery in severe cases. Preventive measures include maintaining good posture, regular neck exercises, and avoiding prolonged positions that strain the neck. Understanding cervical spondylosis is crucial in orthopaedics and neurology, guiding appropriate management strategies to alleviate symptoms and improve the quality of life for individuals affected by this degenerative condition.
