Cervical spondilytis
Recently, My friend had severe left arm pain and less sensation of arm which got severe and felt dizziness. When diagnosed by doctor got to know that he had very mild cervical spondilytis in C4-6. This all started due to stiffness in neck when he had roller coaster ride 2 months back.
Is this type of spondilytis which isn't severe can be cured? Since it is only mild can that be cured atleast for 10 or 20 years because it is not the age for this disease? Please help us.This is the MRI of the vertebrae
