The causes of osteochondrosis in the cervical regionParadoxically, all our problems with the cervical column begin in early childhood, or rather in primary school, where the child deteriorates posture and scoliosis develops. It is at this moment that the system for maintaining the head of the spine is violated, in particular, the most subtle and vulnerable department - the cervical. The second key factor in osteochondrosis in the cervical region, starting in distant childhood, is insufficient physical preparation, in particular, the weakness of the spinal muscles and the muscular corset if called so called designed to support the spine. These are two most important causes of the disease. Everything else with a strong load falls on a weakened spine, causing the development of the disease in fairly young and healthy people. First of all, they include a sedentary lifestyle and a lack of physical activity, in particular work, which is associated with a long stay in a position. This is the most characteristic of drivers and desktop employees, replacing the computer. All this is completed by an excess of body weight, which seriously increases the load on the spine. Among the other causes of osteochondrosis of the cervical column, it must be distinguished:vertebral injuries transmitted;metabolic violation;hereditary predisposition;Great physical effort;constant nervous tension and stress;anomalies in the development of the cervical column;Bad habits (holding the telephone tube with the ear and shoulder).The process of development of osteochondrosisThe negative factors listed ultimately lead to an increase in the load on the cervical column. When you try to compensate for the excess load of neck muscles, their spasm occurs, which leads to a violation of blood circulation in this area and a decrease in metabolic processes. All this turns into development of degenerative processes in the spine. First of all, the vertebrae begin to become thinner and get closer, tightening their content (fibrous ring) outside the spine. Such a protrusion in the language of doctors is called the protrusion.
In the case of projection, the fibrous ring still retains its integrity, but the projection already tightens the blood vessels and the nerves which pass along the spine and nourish the brain. In addition, the converging and deforming vertebrae are starting to tighten the roots of the peripheral nerves, which leads to the development of "root syndrome", which manifests with intense pain in the back and neck. If you do not identify the problem (which the unpleasant symptoms will eloquently report) and do not start to treat osteochondrosis, the fibrous ring will break and vertebral hernia will appear. In this case, serious brain nutrition problems will arise.Symptoms of cervical osteochondosisIn its development, the disease passes several stages, each with characteristic characteristics and symptoms. It should be noted here that osteochondrosis of the cervical column differs from degenerative changes in other parts of the spine. The distances between the vertebrae here are minimal, and therefore even small degenerative changes cause unpleasant symptoms and cause various complications.1st degree osteochondrosis.This is the preclinical stage of the development of the disease, in which the patient experiences slight pain and discomfort during the turns of the head, as well as the tension and rapid fatigue in the neck and back with a prolonged conclusion in a position (often in sedentary). At this stage, osteochondrosis is perfectly treated with a change in lifestyle, nutritional correction and regular physical exercises.Osteochondrosis of degree II.At this stage, instability appears between the vertebrae in the neck. In this case, a person faces intense pain, which is given on the shoulder, neck or hand. During the inclinations or the turns of the head, the pain increases considerably, because due to a decrease in the distance between the vertebrae, the nerve endings begin to harm. The patient begins to get tired quickly, his performance is reduced, distraction, oblivion appears and the torment of headaches. Osteochondrosis of degree III.With the appearance of the third stage of the disease, pain in the back and neck becomes even stronger, the mobility of the neck decreases considerably and during the turn, a crunch of vertebrae can be heard. At night, the patient is starting to be numb with fingers (mainly a finger and an annular), which is why a person wakes up several times a night. Throughout the day, these patients have an unpleasant severity in their hands. And even a short conversation on the phone, in which a person is forced to hold a mobile near his ear, turns into tingling and unpleasant numbness in his fingers. All this indicates an increase in projection, and perhaps the appearance of a hernia in the cervical region. 
Osteochondrosis of degree IV.At the last stage of the disease, vertebrates are destroyed, which cease to perform their functions and begin to be replaced by the connective tissue. A patient in this state can observe a violation of the coordination of movements, a noise appears and the pulsation in the ears is crazy, the headaches are improved, visual acuity and hearing are reduced. In some cases, numbness of the language can be observed.It should be said that due to the transfer of blood vessels, the blood flow in the brain is disturbed. For this reason, the patient has neurotic disorders such as insomnia, nervousness, irritability and resentment, frequent mood swings and the inability to concentrate. Epidemics of anger or fear can occur periodically, to attack desire and depression.In the last stages of osteochondrosis development, the strongest cramps in blood vessels can lead to the appearance of "flies" in front of the eyes, a feeling of instability on a hard and strong surface, strong stunning, migraines, nausea, vomiting and frequent fainting.Diagnosis of the diseaseTo identify the cause of the pathology, the patient describes the unpleasant symptoms of the doctor by his condition. After hearing the patient, the specialist sends him to one of the following research methods.X -ray.Currently, this diagnostic method is considered non -informative, in particular the last stages of the development of the disease.Exploration of ultrasonic duplex.This method is used in cases where a specialist implies a violation of blood flow in the arteries that give the brain to food. The study shows blood flow and determines if there are obstacles on its way. CT (Tomodensitometry).This method is more informative compared to radiography, because not only reveals the problem, but also allows you to determine the presence and size of the hernias, but with difficulty.MRI (magnetic resonance imaging).The most informative method for the diagnosis of osteochondrosis, which allows you to distinguish bone structures, the presence of hernies and even the direction of their development.Treatment of osteochondrosisWe will immediately say that to fight against a problem as serious as osteochondrosis in the cervical region, you should turn to a neurologist. Admittedly, if the clinic has a doctor in a vertebrologist, it is better to contact him first. You can only treat osteochondrosis in a global way. The method of methods used includes pharmacotherapy, massage of the cervical upper area, the treatment of exercise, physiotherapeutic methods, as well as good nutrition. Only the combination of all these methods will help to face the disease and normalize the well-being of the patient.Intense pain assistance
In the case of strong pain syndrome, doctors recommend taking pain relievers. When these funds stop bringing relief, you can go to non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs.In a general sense, pharmacotherapy includes the following funds:NSAIDs (non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs). These products eliminate pain, relieve swelling and face the inflammation of the nerve roots.Chondroprotectors. These drugs perfectly restore damaged cartilage tissues.B Vitamins B. They are necessary to improve metabolic processes in nervous tissues.Musorelaxants. The effect of these drugs aims to reduce muscle cramps.Preparations that improve the rheological properties of blood. Thanks to such means, oxygen flow and nutrients to the brain and nerve endings improves. It should be noted here that it is possible to obtain a tangible effect in the fight against osteochondrosis using ointments and tablets if the treatment with drugs is combined with other methods of therapy. Otherwise, drugs will only give a temporary effect.Many experts tend to treat osteochondrosis with injections to quickly affect nerve endings and save the patient from possible side effects when taking tablets. However, vitamins are better taken orally, because vitamins are well absorbed by the body with any method of taking, but injections with them can be painful.Physiotherapeutic treatment methodsTreatment with drugs should be combined with physiotherapeutic therapy methods. The most effective in this disease are taken into account:Electrophoresis (in combination with drugs). In this case, the drugs enter the damaged vertebrae under the influence of the electric current.Ultrasound. This exposure method allows you to relieve the inflammatory process, calm pain and improve metabolic processes in tissues.Magnetotherapy. This type of physiotherapy relieves swelling and eliminates pain.Laser therapy. This is an excellent method of combating inflammatory processes, which also improves blood circulation.Diet for osteochondrosisThe restoration of affected vertebrae also includes a special diet that normalizes metabolic processes in the body, prevents the deposit of salts, nourishes and restores the tissue of cartilage and also reinforces the ligaments between vertebrates.To achieve this, first of all, the patient's diet must be excluded: 
alcoholic drinks;Fat and fried dishes;Sharp and too salty dishes;Strong broths;weaknesses and sdoba;Solid tea and coffee;pickles and marinades;canned products.The diet of a patient with osteochondrosis should consist of the following food:weak meat and fish;Low milk, cottage cheese and kefir;butter (in small quantities);whole cereals and cereals;jelly, slope of fish or meat;Vegetables, fruits and berries;juice, fruit, frost and compotes drinks.During the location of osteochondrosis in the cervical region, it is important to join the consumption diet, to drink at least 1, 5 liters of water per day. If there is an overweight, you should think about how to get rid of additional books that provide additional load on the spine. It is advisable to switch to food 5 times a day in small portions.At the same time, as shown in the list of products authorized for use, the base of food must be weak vegetarian soups, not in porvus meat, fish, seafood, vegetables and unsweetened fruits.The approximate menu of the day will be as follows:Breakfast: cottage cheese, apple pair, sugar -free tea;Lunch: cooked pear, a little oat flour;Lunch: vegetarian Borse, boiled chicken with a vegetable salad;Afternoon snack: dry cookies and fruit fruit fruit;Dinner: cooked fish with vegetables and sugar -free tea.Exercise therapy for osteochondrosisPhysical education gives incredible results in the treatment of osteochondrosis, the truth is to engage in gymnastics for the cervical column only during the recovery period. It is important here that in the massage or gymnastics process, the patient does not feel discomfort and pain.
Here are some most effective gymnastics exercises to strengthen cervical muscles and improve blood circulation in this area.Exercise number 1Lying on the stomach and placing your hands on the ground, slowly lift your head and chest, so that the back remains straight. Get in this position for 1 minute, then go back to the starting position. The element is repeated 2-3 times.Exercise number 2Lying on the stomach and stretching your hands along the body, lift your head slightly and start turning it to the right, trying to touch the floor with the ear, then on the left. Perform 6 laps in each direction.Exercise number 3Sitting on the floor, in inspiration, tilt forward, trying to reach your chin to the chest and expiration, go back to the starting position and throw your head back. Repeat the element 10 to 15 times.Exercise number 4Attach your palms to your forehead and try to put pressure on your head with an effort. At the same time, stretching the neck muscles, resist your hands, preventing the head from rejecting. Hold the pressure for 20 to 30 seconds, then lower your hands and relax. Repeat the element 2 to 3 times, then repeat the exercise in the opposite direction, giving with your handle hands to the back of the head.Exercise number 5Start slowly to turn your head to the right and to the left, trying to look behind your back. Make 10 turns on each side. Good health!
