Cervical spondylosis can cause chronic gastritis

In recent years, some sympathetic cervical spine patients were found to be accompanied by gastrointestinal symptoms. Chronic gastritis was confirmed by electrogastrogram and gastroscopy. Gastric analysis revealed that patients had varying degrees of bile reflux.

After clinical observation and research, it has been shown that sympathetic cervical spondylosis and chronic gastritis have an intersecting effect. The condition is aggravated and relieved, and the two complement each other, which is medically called "neck-stomach syndrome".

Neck and stomach syndrome, combined with dizziness, headache, head soreness, neck fatigue and stiffness; dry eyes, painful eyesight, fatigue of eyesight; tinnitus, hearing loss; sweating symptoms and discomfort of upper abdominal pain , Nausea, dry mouth, bitter mouth, constipation, stomach tenderness; tenderness, irritability, insomnia and other symptoms.

Studies suggest that cervical spine hyperplasia stimulates sympathetic nerves, causing cervical sympathetic nerve function to be hyperactive, and at the same time reflexively leads to increased gastrointestinal sympathetic nerve function, and long-term stimulation of bile reflux damages the gastric mucosa, constituting the pathogenesis of neck-stomach syndrome.

The treatment of neck-stomach syndrome is mainly to prevent gastric hyperplasia and improve autonomic nerve nutrition, because it contains sympathetic nerves and regulates autonomic nerve function. Specific treatments include traction therapy, massage, local infrared irradiation, ion penetration of Chinese medicine, and qigong therapy. Improve the symptoms of cervical spine, chronic gastritis will improve.
