Cervical Spondylosis: Understanding and Relieving This Neck Arthritis
Cervical spondylosis is a form of osteoarthritis that affects the cervical vertebrae. Extremely common after age 50, it is present in over 85% of people over 60. Although often asymptomatic, it can cause chronic neck pain, stiffness, and headaches. At night, the Hilair ergonomic pain-relief cervical pillow is an essential recovery tool for people suffering from cervical spondylosis. In this comprehensive guide, we explain everything about this condition and how to manage it daily.
What is cervical spondylosis?
Cervical spondylosis refers to age-related degenerative changes in the cervical vertebrae:
- Osteophytes: bone spurs on the edges of the vertebrae
- Reduced disc height: intervertebral discs thin with age
- Facet joint osteoarthritis: degeneration of cartilage in the small cervical joints
- Ligament calcification: progressive stiffening of ligament structures
The Hilair memory foam cervical pillow reduces nocturnal pressure on these degenerated structures.
Symptoms of cervical spondylosis
- Chronic neck pain: often worse in the morning upon waking
- Morning neck stiffness: difficulty turning the head upon waking
- Occipital headaches: pain at the base of the skull
- Pain radiating into the arms: if nerves are compressed
- Balance disorders: in advanced forms
Morning stiffness is often directly related to sleeping position. The Hilair cervical pain-relief pillow reduces this stiffness by maintaining the cervical spine in a neutral position all night.
