Patient's question:
Recently, I don't know why I can't sleep, which greatly affects my work efficiency. My friend recommended that I go to the neurology department for a check-up. Can an X-ray help rule out cervical spondylotic myelopathy?Doctor's answer:
After the recurrence of cervical spondylosis, it is mainly possible to experience symptoms such as headaches, dizziness, and numbness in limbs. Generally, to confirm the recurrence of cervical spondylosis, symptoms and careful examination can be used. During the examination, X-ray imaging cannot diagnose it, and it is usually necessary to perform a cervical CT scan to confirm it. Then, based on the examination results, medication or surgical treatment can be administered.
