Cervical spondylosis
I was diagnosed with cervical spondylosis one month back following neck and shoulder pain. I had a course of medicine, and physiotherapy for 5 days and wore the cervical collar too and the pain was managed for a very short time. It keeps coming back every time I lift something heavy or travel by autorickshaws. For the last 2 days, I am having a front neck pain too, besides the shoulder ache. I occasionally have isolated pain in the arms too. Is my frontal neck pain also related to the spondylosis?
