Why is it important?
Degenerative changes are common within bones and joints, due to excessive 'wear and tear', resulting in osteoarthritis. When these symptoms appear in the cervical region of the spinal vertebrae, this degenerative process is termed cervical spondylosis.
Perspectives
A multitude of problems can occur, ranging from mild localised pain and discomfort to a major dysfunction of the nervous system.
