What are the causes and symptoms of the straightening of the physiological curvature of the cervical spine

The cause of straightening of the physiological curvature of the cervical spine is often related to muscle sprain in the neck. In addition, if there is inflammation of the muscle fibrous tissue, it is also easy to cause such symptoms. It often causes pain in the head, neck, back and arms, can cause neck stiffness, limited mobility, and can also cause nausea, dizziness, and dizziness when walking.

1. Causes

(1) Acute cervical muscle sprain: Due to muscle pain and spasm, the muscles pull on the bones, causing the physiological curvature of the neck to become straight.

(2) Myofibrosarcoma of the cervical and shoulder regions: Poor sitting posture, catching a cold, etc. may cause myofibrosarcoma of the cervical and shoulder regions, causing the muscles to spasm due to pain. The pain caused by inflammation of the joint capsule, ligaments and small joints can also cause the physiological curvature of the cervical spine to straighten.

(3) Radiculopathy: In the acute stage, the affected small joints are acutely inflamed, the joint periosteum and joint capsule are swollen, and the adjacent nerve roots are irritated. Patients often have tension in the neck and shoulders, and their movements are significantly limited, which can cause the physiological curvature of the cervical spine to straighten.

(4) Lesions of the cervical spine: Tumors, tuberculosis, and purulent infections of the cervical spine can all cause neck pain, muscle spasms, limited cervical spine movement, and straightening of the physiological curvature.

(5) Ankylosing spondylitis can cause cervical stiffness and ankylosing in the late stage.

2. Clinical symptoms

The main symptoms are soreness in the head, neck, shoulders, back, arms, stiffness in the neck, and limited movement. Dizziness, spinning head, and vomiting in severe cases are common symptoms.

Some people may not experience any symptoms, while others may experience numbness in the hands (radiculopathy) and neck pain and discomfort due to compression of the nerve roots. In more serious cases, they may experience dizziness, blurred vision, nausea, and dizziness when walking. Cervical spondylosis is a disease that seriously endangers the health of desk workers, and its manifestations are varied. The main symptoms include neck and back pain, upper limb weakness, numbness of fingers, dizziness, nausea and even blurred vision and swallowing.
