What It Is:

Cervical spondylosis is a degenerative condition of the cervical spine (neck region) that typically occurs due to age-related changes in the vertebrae and intervertebral discs. These changes may lead to nerve compression, formation of bone spurs (osteophytes), and reduction in disc space, causing pain and stiffness in the neck. Sedentary lifestyle, poor posture, long hours of computer use, and chronic stress can accelerate the degeneration process, leading to symptoms even in younger adults. Ayurveda classifies this under Vata Vyadhi, as it involves the vitiation of Vata dosha, which governs movement, bones, and joints.

Symptoms:

• Chronic neck pain and stiffness
• Pain radiating to shoulders or arms
• Tingling, numbness, or weakness in the hands
• Headaches starting from the back of the head
• Vertigo or dizziness in some cases
