Cervical Spondylosis : its Homeopathic treatment
If you are around the age of forty or above and suffering from neck pain, there are good enough chances that the pain in your neck could be cervical spondylosis. Although this disorder can start early but it usually appears around the age of forty. Although cervical spondylosis affects both sexes equally, men tend to develop it at an earlier age than women
Cervical spondylosis is a disorder of the neck spine where the vertebrae (bones in the neck) and the discs (cushions between the vertebrae) start degenerating. This is also known as cervical osteoarthritis.
The degeneration in the bones and the disks occur as a result of wear and tear as one ages. As one ages, the discs loose their elasticity and become drier this causes them to become more brittle .Along with the degeneration of disks, bony out growths also form on the vertebrae which are called as osteophytes. All These degenerative changes in the cervical spine cause compression and pressure on the spinal nerves that come out of the spinal cord producing symptoms of Cervical spondylosis
The symptoms of cervical spondylosis are – pain and stiffness in the neck which is usually progressive in nature; pain and numbness that radiates to the arms hands and fingers, headache that starts from the neck and extends to the back of the head, loss of balance and vertigo (sensation of spinning or whirling with loss of balance)
Homeopathy has a very promising role in the treatment of cervical spondylosis. The long term results of homeopathy are very encouraging. Homoeopathic treatment of cervical spondylosis is dependant upon an important factor i.e. amounts of degenerative changes that have taken place in the bones and the disk. In other words the extent of damage to your spine will determine the speed at which your problem gets cured and also to what extent you get cured. In cases where there are mild to moderate changes in the cervical spine the cure is much faster and the recovery is very substantial. In advanced cases where multiple disk prolapses have occurred, the recovery will be slow and at times will be limited.
Remember homeopathy primarily is symptom based system of medicine. The medicine is determined by ones individual symptoms. For example a patient who is suffering from numbness in the arm along with the pain in the neck would require a different medicine from the one who has vertigo with pain in neck. Homoeopathic medicine Guaicum, lachnanthes and Rhus Tox are very useful in treating pain and stiffness of the neck. In cases where numbness and pain in arms is associated with cervical spondylosis Paris Quadrifolia and Kalmia latifolia work wonders. Calcarea Flour is often used for dissolving the bony outgrowths on the vertebrae. Conium Maculatum is indicated when vertigo is associated with spondylosis.
Along with medication we need to realize the importance of prevention of disease
As we get more and more absorbed into modern lifestyle like increased working and prolonged driving hours, sitting in front of computer and television for hours together and sedentary life style, it leads to increased wear and tear in our neck muscles and spine. This is what further predisposes us to early and rapid changes in our bones and vertebrae. Thus lifestyle modifications are the first step in preventing the further degeneration and an early onset of cervical spondylosis.

Homeopathy is much more of a choice than people often think it to be. One of its philosophy’s greatest breakthroughs is the realization that the body is not an object but a process with no pre-ordained limits. The scorching, cruel heat of summer was just setting in the first year of the new century

Neck pain, numbness in hands especially from fingers to wrist, more so in left hand than in the right. Though the symptoms were mild during my teen age, it increased by age. Now even after five years after my resignation from a bank job, the problem has increased. For the past two months I feel more dizzy, losing my balance while bending forward, while lying to sleep – as if I am going round about in a gaint wheel or tora tora. Is a complete permanent cure / relief is possible in Homeopathy? I am taking Homeopathy medicines whenever I feel the problem is worse, as per my doctor’s advice, but the problem repeats after a few weeks of relief.

Hello Doctor, I am suffering from CERVICAL SPONDYLOSIS (c4 & c5 disc buldge) & in D also for the past two years. The pain has become severe for the past 11 months alongwith FIBROMYOLGIA & MIGRAINE. I have taken physiotherapy but that gave me temporary relief. I am under alopathy treatment taking Pregablin for muscle relaxant & Flunarizine for Migraine. I am afraid taking these medicines for a long time may cause side effects at a later stage. I came to know it is a longtime treatment. CAN I SWITCH OVER TO HOMEOPATHY. WILL I BECOME ALRIGHT IN HOMEOPATHY TREATMENT. PLEASE HELP ME. I AM CONFUSED.
