Neck and shoulder pain are the most common symptom. Types of neck and shoulder pain include:
stiff neck, most often one of the very first signs. Neck stiffness tends to grow progressively worse over time.
Radiating pain to the bottom of the skull and/or to the shoulder and down the arm. This radiating pain may seem like a stabbing or a burning, or it might present itself as a dull ache.2
Along with pain, cervical spondylosis can be accompanied by parathesias and muscle weakness in the neck, shoulders, arms and hands, and a syndrome called “numb, clumsy hands”. in cases of cervical spondylosis with myelopathy, the legs may be affected, leading to an interruption of stability while walking. Loss of balance might also occur. when myelopathy is present, incontinence may become a problem. Muscle wasting also accompanies cervical spondylosis with myelopathy.

Unfortunately, cervical spondylosis is a condition that gradually gets worse. in very advanced cases of this condition, often mobility can only be achieved with a cane or walker.

Here is a site you can go on.

spondy "Greek for a slip..losis=Greek for colum.but here in America we simply call it a slipped disk.I had one,not in the neck but in the lower back "L-5 S-1"area,they say it has i think 3 stages it's judged on 1,2,3 I think stage 3 is the worst,not a doctor and not sure.they fixed mine by a spinal fusion. best advice I can tell ya search cervical spondylosis on the web site,try only looking at the sites the end with .gov
.gov sites are the most dependable..you will probably need a fusion,if so spend all your time looking up spine fusions on the web,find the one's that offer video/pictures of how it's done.the more info you get the less you'll be afraid of the surgery.

Winter has arrived. Many people like this weather, but people with problems like sinus, asthma, arthritis face problem.

Nearly everyone has experienced a sinus problem. the heavy head with pain and pressure around the face due to cold, allergies or airborne pollutants are the common symptoms of sinus.

Sinuses are the holes in the skull between the facial bones.

Chronic  Sinus

The long lasting sinus are the chronic sinus and the symptoms are pressure across mid-face and dull headache.

Acute Sinus

The short lasting sinus are acute sinus and the symptoms are fever, raspy voice and nasal obstruction.

Infection is the main cause of sinus. Other than this is allergy to pollens, dust and air pollutants are the root causes of sinus.

Decongestants

Decongestants are the drugs that temporarily relief the nasal congestion. They help in the healing process by drying the nose and the mucus.

Nasal Sprays

These are the decongestants in a spray form. They are effective when used for few days, but can be addicting when used for longer time.

Inhalers

Types of prescribed nasal inhalers are available that help in reducing inflammation of sinus. They are not habit forming and are not decongestants.

Humidifiers

Dry air heating systems can cause sinus membrane to dry out and become vulnerable to irritants and infection.

Expectorants

These are the drugs that thin the mucus so that drains easily.
