Observations: loss of normal cervical lordosis is noted. Mild osteophytes lipping of vertebral bodies is noted. Intervertebral discs: c3-4, c4-5 and c5-6 discs show mild posterior bulge mildly indenting the thecal sac. Impression: mild posterior bulge of c3-4, c4-5 and c5-6 discs mildly indenting the thecal sac. Early cervical spondylosis. Request your honest opinion on this. What is early in early cervical spondylosis? Age 36 years first had this kind of muscle pain and tingling sensation about an year ago when started working out, took pregalin, it went away and was able to do all exercise without any problem and all joint pain also vanished after working out. Worked out for 2 months, no problem and then stopped working out due to other works. Then pain and tingling reoccur after about 6 months and took pregalin for 3 days helped, now muscle pain and tingling sensation again and took an mri since it reoccurred. Is it because of the workout or age related or ergonomics?

Dear lybrate-user, greetings you have cervical spondylosis, thats evident from investigations. Early means its begining of the disease. Not reversible however well controlable with exercises, though you may need support of medications in the beginning. Loss of lordosis happens due to muscles spasm. Working out with bad posture will lead to this. You need to focus on the weaker muscle first, once spine is balanced only then you should go ahead with working out. Now anyone above 30-35 on mri will find some degree of cervical spondylosis, it may or may not symptomatic. What makes is symptomatic is straning the spine. Then all sorts of pain will appear. You can take some muscle relaxant, pregabalin as you are taking and make sure you taking your vitamin d and calcium magnesium supplements. All I need to advise you is first work on strength ing your core muscles of spine and shoulder girdle before starting any gym. Take your supplements regularly. I hope that helps.

It’s natural disease. You need to continue the excersize life long. It controls the spine. Once u stop things gets worse. You scan findings will stay always same or get worse. 1% chance, it will become better. As long as no arm pain and leg pain, u can continue just physio therapy and excersize. Pregabalin tab is useful.
