Dr. Jyothi Kadkol
Hi,Neck pain from C4 to C7 with dizziness and difficulty lying flat strongly suggests cervical spondylosis with nerve and muscle involvement, which is very common in people above 60 years. Degenerative changes in the cervical spine can cause muscle spasm, nerve irritation, reduced blood flow, and imbalance, leading to neck stiffness, pain radiating to shoulders, dizziness, disturbed sleep, and positional discomfort, such as needing two pillows or avoiding one side. This condition usually worsens due to poor neck posture, prolonged mobile or TV viewing, weak neck muscles, osteoporosis, vitamin D/calcium deficiency, stress, and reduced circulation. Sudden movements, sleeping without proper neck support, or incorrect pillows can aggravate symptoms. While painkillers may give temporary relief, they do not correct the underlying degeneration and may cause gastric or kidney issues with long-term use at this age. With the right guidance, this condition can be effectively managed and symptoms significantly reduced through a gentle, individualized treatment approach, posture correction, proper cervical pillow support, and targeted neck exercises. Most patients experience reduced pain, improved sleep, better balance, and decreased dizziness over a few weeks. A consultation is important to assess nerve involvement, posture, and contributing factors so treatment can be planned safely and appropriately for her age.if you are intrested please take consultation you can check our google reviews and testimonials in instagram.Regards Dr jyoti Kadkol, Health Global Homoeopathy, Vijaynagar, Bangalore.www.healthglobalclinics.com
