Can Mecobalamin Tablets treat cervical spondylosis?

Under normal circumstances, Mecobalamin tablets cannot treat cervical spondylosis, but can only assist in improving some symptoms caused by cervical spondylosis. Medication should be used according to medical advice. Detailed analysis is as follows:

The core pathology of cervical spondylosis involves structural abnormalities of the cervical spine caused by degeneration of the intervertebral discs and bone spurs, which subsequently compress nerves and blood vessels. Treatment should target the structural lesions of the cervical spine themselves—for example, through traction, physical therapy, or surgery—to relieve the compression. As a neurotrophic drug, Mecobalamin tablets can only provide certain support for nerve repair and promote the recovery of nerve function when nerve damage occurs due to compression, thus alleviating related discomfort. However, they cannot reverse structural lesions of the cervical spine or eliminate the root cause of compression.

If there is no relief of related symptoms after taking the medication, or if symptoms such as worsening neck pain and restricted movement occur, timely medical attention should be sought to clarify the condition via imaging examinations and to implement targeted treatment. At the same time, it is important to maintain correct cervical posture in daily life, avoid prolonged periods of neck flexion, perform appropriate cervical exercises, and reduce the burden on the cervical spine.
