Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative disorder of the cervical spine. It is characterized by the deterioration of the intervertebral discs and the formation of bony outgrowths (spurs) on the vertebrae. The condition is caused by wear and tear on the spine due to age, weight-bearing activity, or repetitive motion.
Cervical spondylosis often leads to neck pain and stiffness. In severe cases, it can compress nerves or the spinal cord, causing numbness, tingling, or weakness in the arms and legs. The condition is more common in older adults, but it can occur at any age.
Many people these days rely on Ayurvedic treatments for managing cervical spondylosis. This is mainly because Ayurveda mainly focus on relieving pain associated with condition and restoring mobility to the spine through natural methods
