Cervical spondylosis - an upstart in the field of modern diseases!
Thanks to the development of electronic products in modern society, there are a bunch of low-headed people and desk people, I will have a lot of related patients every time I go to the clinic, they are not divided into men and women, old and young, their distribution age is relatively even, from this point of view, it turns out that we have always wronged young people, addicted to mobile phones are not only them.
We are in the era of information transparency, as long as there is patience, a lot of information is public, which also makes some patients who are full of curiosity learn pathology by themselves, expecting their own patients, but the information on the Internet is different, for ordinary people, it is difficult to distinguish the true from the false, mostly for the state of half-understanding, if you do it accordingly, it is likely to backfire and aggravate the condition.
Remind everyone: **Cervical spondylosis, you must be careful of the four rumors!
1. If your neck hurts, go for massage and massage.
I understand the difficulties of the majority of patients, and it is indeed human nature to want to be conservative, but the status of the cervical spine in the human body is relatively special, and the neck is covered with a large number of nerves and blood vessels.
Moreover, there are many "doctors" in the society who are confused, and their "**** may not be the right symptoms, and even their own medical qualifications are fraudulent. Of course, if you just want to relax to the point of nothing, but remember: don't let them give you a sudden and powerful wrench, I have seen too many patients who have been injured (paralyzed) because of this, this is like the scene of the movie twisting the neck and killing people, so do you dare to let people treat you casually?
2. Cervical spondylosis must be operated on and must be conservative!
There is no disease ** is absolute, in the ** of cervical spondylosis, there is no distinction between conservative and surgery, only the distinction of applicable conditions, on the Internet, we can always see: "cervical spondylosis must not be operated, otherwise it will often be **" cervical spondylosis to do surgery immediately, or it will not only get more and more serious" This kind of remarks, who said it, I will not specifically point it out, but although the two seem to be-for-tat, there are actually the same mistakes, and there are serious errors in inducing.
There are many clinical types of cervical spondylosis, although they are all called cervical spondylosis, but in fact, not only the pathogenesis is different, but the possible consequences are secondary differentiation, the light can recover naturally, and the heavy may cause paralysis, so we must treat dialectically, in addition to identifying the lesion through imaging examination, we also need to consider the basic situation of the patient when formulating the first plan (relevant medical history, duration of illness, symptom changes, clinical signs, Response effect), even a patient who has been advised to be conservative may be advised to undergo surgery after a period of time**, depending on the change in symptoms during the patient's period.
3. Cervical spondylosis is not curable, so it is not treated!
There is some truth to this statement, but in my opinion: it is misleading.
From the perspective of the pathogenesis of cervical spondylosis, it is indeed difficult to reverse and heal, but as far as ordinary people are concerned, their concept of disease is different from the concept of medicine, ordinary people do not need to consider what mechanism, as long as their normal life and work are not affected, it is equal to "health", and the purpose of cervical spondylosis patients is to "eliminate symptoms" The difference is only in the duration, and all the measures taken in clinical practice are based on this purpose, whether it is the temporary control of drugs, or the long-term elimination of lesions by surgery, when a patient with cervical spondylosis has no symptoms until death, then can we say that his cervical spondylosis has been cured?
I often tell you: "Drugs for cervical spondylosis** can only relieve symptoms", because the effect of this type of ** is completely maintained by drugs, and when the concentration of drugs drops, the pain will come back, and it cannot be maintained for a long time. And the real **, even if it is also to eliminate the symptoms, should be "normal" for a long time, even if it does not require any drugs, it can also ensure a certain degree of normality, which requires the specific dialectical application of conservative or surgery. For the vast majority of patients with cervical spondylosis, as long as regular ** is taken in time, it is definitely not difficult to "cure" cervical spondylosis.
4. Only neck discomfort is called cervical spondylosis!
The three words "cervical spondylosis" are easy to misunderstand, when the neck pain is uncomfortable, the first time it will be associated with cervical spondylosis, but few people can distinguish other symptoms.
In fact, in clinical epistology, cervical spondylosis is a disease that is easy to misdiagnose, and its clinical symptoms are many, and the distribution range is even wider to believe: dizziness, headache, deafness, tinnitus, nausea and vomiting, vision loss, limb numbness, chest tightness, chest pain, palpitation, shortness of breath, difficulty walking, etc., these symptoms basically wipe out the systemic diseases. Do not diagnose the cause of the disease by symptoms".
Summary: Although cervical spondylosis is common, it is not simple, and it must be cautious when diagnosing and diagnosing it. Lies are not terrible, what is terrible is rumors, and half-truths are the most misleading to the masses!
