Calling Your Health Care Provider

Apply home treatment like use of a cervical collar which can be purchased at pharmacies and over-the-counter pain medications, but call your health care provider if there are signs of complications or if the condition becomes worse.

Call your health care provider if cervical spondylosis has been diagnosed and symptoms worsen, or if new symptoms develop (such as loss of movement or sensation of an area of the body).
