Could spine degeneration be the cause?
For a week now, I have had a headache, almost all the time. It’s not very bad pain, but it’s quite uncomfortable. I started to worry as the pain does not stop. Half a year ago I was diagnosed with cervical spine degeneration, could this headache have something to do with it – Sabina
Mrs. Sabina, headaches are one of the most common reasons for visiting a neurologist. There are many causes of this condition, and degenerative changes in the spine may be one of them. It is very important to exclude other possible causes, which will be helped by a specialist and the tests ordered by him. In the case of degenerative changes in the spine, the pains can actually be bothersome and cause great discomfort every day. The most effective method of treatment is usually causal treatment, i.e. in this case well-planned rehabilitation of the spine, learning appropriate movement habits and training of appropriate muscle groups. Medicines also play an important role here – they reduce pain and improve the quality of life.
