If the incidence of cervical spondylosis is serious, it will affect people's sleep. What about insomnia caused by cervical spondylosis?

Anyone who has suffered from cervical spondylosis knows that if the condition is severe, it will affect people's sleep. So what about insomnia caused by cervical spondylosis? Let's take a look with Bian Xiao.

Suffering from cervical spondylosis does cause insomnia immediately or indirectly. All kinds of head and neck diseases involved in cervical spondylosis may stimulate the central nerve endings on nerve roots, joint capsules or nuchal ligaments, and then immediately cause dizziness, headache, memory loss, difficulty in concentration, poor sleep, insomnia and other diseases. Also, cervical spondylosis can cause muscle stiffness and pain, which will endanger the patient's sleep. In addition, some diseases of cervical spondylosis itself will indirectly lead to insomnia. Such as headache, tinnitus, ear blockage, imbalance, tachycardia, panic, chest tightness, flatulence, etc. If this disease persists for a long time, it will not only cause emotional damage, but also lead to upset, anxiety, depression, insomnia and so on.

If cervical spondylosis causes insomnia, we should pay attention to the insufficiency of blood supply to the brain caused by cervical spondylosis squeezing vertebrobasilar artery. Patients should strengthen the exercise of neck and shoulder muscles. At work or after work, you should do the forward flexion, backward extension and rotation exercises of your head and arms, which is also commonly known as the "meter" exercise. It is beneficial to eliminate fatigue, strengthen the body, improve toughness and the reliability of cervical vertebra. If you have the habit of high pillow sleep quality, you can correct it. Because the high pillow bends the top of the head forward, it expands the internal stress of the lower cervical vertebra, which is very likely to accelerate the degeneration of the cervical vertebra.

If you have insomnia all night because of cervical spondylosis, it is recommended to treat cervical spondylosis as soon as possible. Only by solving the cervical spondylosis can the problem of insomnia not happen again. In addition, it is suggested that you should be able to treat your cervical spondylosis as soon as possible, and at the same time, if you sit down at work, you don't have to keep the same posture for a long time.

In daily life, we should strengthen the exercise of shoulder muscles, combine work and rest, and pay attention to reasonable rest. Sleeping at night is best to prevent the habit of sleeping on a high pillow, which is not good for cervical vertebrae. In the daily process, we should also pay attention to the cold and warm work of the neck and shoulders, especially in the case of seasonal changes, to prevent our head and neck from being squeezed by hanging objects. Patients should eat moderately, avoid greasy and salty ingredients, and choose digestible food is the key. At the same time, they need to avoid spicy food.
