From the medical point of view, cervical spondylosis is the general name of cervical osteoarthritis, proliferative cervical spondylitis,
cervical nerve root syndrome, cervical disc prolapse, It is a disease based on degenerative changes, in the traditional Chinese medicine belongs to the category of "arthralgia".

Under normal circumstances, cervical spondylosis is generally more common in middle-aged and elderly groups.

However, with the advancement of time and the development and popularization of smart phones, cervical spondylosis is becoming more and more young.

Experimental studies have shown that the weight of a human head is about 5 kilograms. Daily bending angles such as working or playing mobile phones are about 60°. At this time,
the pressure on the neck muscles will reach more than 25 kilograms.

In the long run, the health of the cervical spine will become worse and worse.

Zhao Yong, chief physician of the Bone Injury general Department of Wangjing Hospital, China Academy of Chinese Medical Sciences, once suggested:
"If you have to lower your head for work, raise the screen or object you're looking at a little bit and try to lower your head as little as possible,
Another is to control the time,more than 45 minutes, get up and do some exercise,
you can expand the chest and shrug the shoulders, and the speed of cervical lesions will be delayed."
