Patient's question:
Does cervical spondylosis cause high blood pressure?Doctor's answer:
If you have sympathetic cervical spondylosis, it may lead to abnormal blood pressure when the upper segment of the ganglion is excessively compressed. Therefore, cervical spondylosis can cause high blood pressure. You can first take your mother for acupuncture treatment to relax the tense muscles in the upper cervical spine and alleviate the symptoms of nerve compression. During the treatment, closely monitor the daily fluctuations in blood pressure. If the sympathetic cervical spondylosis shows significant improvement, but the blood pressure remains abnormal, it may be primary hypertension, and medication will be needed to lower the blood pressure.
