Cervical Myelopathy: Understanding Spinal Cord Compression

Cervical myelopathy results from spinal cord compression in the neck, often due to degenerative changes or herniated discs. Symptoms include neck pain, balance issues, numbness in the hands, and muscle weakness.

Early diagnosis is crucial, as untreated cervical myelopathy can lead to permanent nerve damage. Treatment may involve chiropractic care, traction therapy, or in severe cases, surgery to decompress the spinal cord.
