The main manifestations are neck and shoulder pain, dizziness, headache, upper limb numbness, muscle atrophy, severe cases of spasms in both lower limbs, difficulty walking, and even limb paralysis, dysuria, and paralysis. "Remedying for a lost sheep is never better than preparing for a rainy day. So how can we prevent cervical spondylosis in our lives?"?
1. Correct sitting posture
To prevent the occurrence of cervical spondylosis, the most important thing is to sit correctly, relax the neck and shoulders, and maintain the most comfortable and natural posture. Office workers should also stand up and move around from time to time, moving their neck and shoulders to relax their muscles.
2. Moving the neck
Look up at the sky. Take an upright position, with both hands drooping, feet shoulder-width apart, head slowly raised, looking up at the sky, with the angle of gaze as high as possible, eyes fixed on a target, and hold this position for about 15 seconds.
Massage the neck. Take an upright or sitting position, massage the back of the neck with both hands and thumbs, first press the middle part, then press the muscles on both sides, from top to bottom, from bottom to top, and repeatedly massage for 15 times.
Shake your head and head. Shake the head in front, back, left, and right order. Shake your head in this way for one turn and then in the opposite direction. Do it 10 times on the left and 10 times on the right.
