| Cervical Spondylosis
is a disorder caused by degeneration of the neck bones
(cervical vertebrae) and the cervical disks. Cervical
spondylosis is common in people older than 50 years and
is mainly due to aging. A previous neck injury can increase
the chance of cervical spondylosis, but the major cause
is again.
As we age the bones in the neck (cervical spine) degenerates
including the cushions between the cervical disks and
joints between the bones of the cervical spine. It’s
also called degenerative disk disease of the neck.
Cervical Spondylosis may result in bone spurs and problems
with ligaments and disks. The degenerative changes can
gradually put pressure on the spinal nerves. It may even
compress the spinal cord and nerves to the arm.
This pressure may result to pain in the neck and numbness
in the arm. The pain can range from mild discomfort to
severe pain.
