About Cervical Spondylosis in Bengaluru

Cervical spondylosis is a common age-related condition involving degeneration of the discs and joints in the neck, leading to changes such as disc dehydration, bone spur formation, and narrowing of the spaces through which nerves pass. It develops gradually as part of the natural aging process of the spine, though it can be accelerated by repetitive strain or prior neck injury. Many people with radiographic evidence of cervical spondylosis have no symptoms, while others experience significant neck pain, stiffness, or nerve-related symptoms in the arms. In severe cases, compression of the spinal cord itself can cause more serious neurological problems.
