What are the nursing methods for dizziness caused by cervical spondylosis

Sometimes in life we ​​find that we are not sick, but we always feel dizzy all day long. In severe cases, we may even feel top-heavy and light-footed, which affects our normal life and work. If this happens often, it may be that there is something wrong with our cervical spine causing dizziness. Now let’s talk about the care methods for dizziness caused by cervical spondylosis.

Method 1: Drug treatment

You can choose some analgesics, sedatives, or vitamins, and muscle-relaxing drugs for treatment, which can have a certain effect on relieving pain.

Method 2: Traction therapy

For some patients with deterioration of the physiological curvature of the cervical spine or more serious intervertebral disc herniation, scientific and correct traction still has a good therapeutic effect, relieving vertebral artery compression and thus eliminating symptoms.

Method 3: Tuina and massage therapy

More effective treatment measures for cervical spondylosis. Its therapeutic effect is to relieve tension and spasm of the cervical and shoulder muscles, restore cervical spine activity, and loosen nerve root and soft tissue adhesions to relieve symptoms. Gravity massage and reduction are generally prohibited for spinal cervical spondylosis, otherwise it is easy to aggravate the symptoms and may even lead to paraplegia. Even if the early symptoms are not obvious, surgical treatment is generally recommended.

Method 4: Hot compress on the cervical spine

This treatment can improve blood circulation, relieve muscle spasms, and eliminate swelling to alleviate symptoms, and help stabilize the affected vertebra after manual treatment. This method can be used for local external application with hot towels and hot water bottles. Warm compress treatment is not suitable for patients in the acute stage when the pain symptoms are severe.

Method 5: Traditional Therapy

By applying the An`Neck Patch externally and regulating the kidney essence internally, the body can be in a good condition, thereby better treating cervical diseases through internal combination.

Ways to prevent cervical spine diseases in life:

1. Correct and change improper posture during work.

①Adjust the height and inclination of the desktop to suit your body.

② Constantly change the position of your head and neck to avoid maintaining one posture for a long time.

③When working for a long time, you should look into the distance regularly.

2. Keep warm.

In summer, the air conditioner is turned on very low. The blood circulation of the exposed neck muscles is slow and the metabolism slows down, which can cause local swelling. The neck muscles are stimulated by the cold air, and the local muscles will contract protectively to avoid excessive heat dissipation. In this way, the tension in the neck will increase, causing an imbalance of force, leading to narrowing of the cervical intervertebral space and compression of nerves and blood vessels, which increases the risk of cervical spondylosis.

3. Adjust the pillow and sleeping position.

①Choice of pillow.

If the cause of cervical spondylosis is the thickening and invagination of the posterior ligament of the spinal canal, which causes compression on the posterior spinal cord, you can raise the pillow. The shape of the pillow should preferably be in the shape of a gold ingot. If the cause of cervical spondylosis is intervertebral disc herniation or bone spurs on the posterior edge of the vertebral body, the pillow can be slightly lower.

②Sleeping position .

You can lie on your side or on your back, but not on your stomach. Keep your chest and waist in a natural curvature, and your hips and knees bent.
