Cervical Spondylitis Help for Lifting Hands: Exercises for My Wife?

Ans:

Hi Raema.

Spondylosis is a delicate condition, therefore treatment can be suggested after reviewing medical history, age, etc.

I suggest you consult a certified yoga practitioner to initiate exercises and also meet an ayurvedic professional who will help you understand the reason behind the spondylosis and recommend a proper diet/medicinal plan. 

Ans: Hi Aria,
You’ll need to visit a physio clinic and follow a continuous rehab protocol for pain relief

Ans: Dear Mr. Shrinivas . Thank you for your query. Yes, your symptoms—left-sided neck pain, arm pain, tingling, and imbalance—are typical signs of cervical spondylosis. This condition occurs due to age-related wear and tear of the cervical spine, leading to nerve compression, which can cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the arms.

I strongly recommend that you visit a physiotherapist for a proper assessment. They will evaluate your posture, neck mobility, and nerve involvement before designing a personalized treatment plan. Physiotherapy may include postural correction, neck-strengthening exercises, manual therapy, and nerve mobilization techniques to relieve symptoms and improve function.

In the meantime, you can try neck stretches, apply heat or ice, and maintain proper posture while working or using mobile devices. However, do not ignore persistent symptoms, as timely physiotherapy can prevent worsening of the condition. Please visit a specialist soon for the best guidance and treatment

Ans: Hello Ovani,
Has she gone to the orthopedic and a physiotherapist? If not please do take her. The orthopedic will guide her about the medication part like if she needs to take Vit D3, Vit B12, Calcium etc. and the physiotherapist will do a detailed evaluation and teach her the exercises as each person is different and they need a customized program.
