Cervical spondylosis with nerve compression may cause the following symptoms: 1. Most patients may experience shoulder pain. 2. Some patients may develop nausea and vomiting. 3. In severe cases, patients may suffer radiating pain in all four limbs. Patients are advised to seek timely medical evaluation and treatment at a hospital. Therapeutic options include cervical traction to alleviate symptoms, as well as traditional Chinese medicine (TCM) acupuncture for symptomatic relief.
