Patient's question:
In the recent period, I have always felt unwell physically, with severe headaches. I want to know if the headaches are caused by the cervical spine.Doctor's answer:
According to what you said, the headache may be caused by cervical spondylosis. Cervical spondylosis is very common in orthopedics. The main cause is chronic strain, fibrosis, and flattening of the cervical spine's physiological curvature. It manifests as dizziness, neck and shoulder pain, and discomfort. You can go to the hospital for a cervical X-ray examination. After being diagnosed with cervical spondylosis, you can take medication under the guidance of a doctor to relieve muscle pain and tension, speed up blood circulation, and enhance metabolism, which is beneficial for reducing fatigue. It is necessary to identify the clear cause before considering how to proceed with further treatment. It is important to go to the hospital for follow-up early, and the specific plan needs to be determined based on individual circumstances. During daily life, it is essential to perform massage to promote blood circulation. At the same time, acupuncture can be combined for better treatment results.
