How many times is the small needle knife treatment required for cervical spondylosis?
Disease description:
I've decided to treat my cervical spondylosis with small needle knife therapy, but I don't know much about it. May I ask how many sessions of small needle knife treatment are usually needed for cervical spondylosis?
The specific number of small needle knife treatments for cervical spondylosis should be determined according to the severity of the condition:
1. General situation: Small needle knife treatment for cervical spondylosis is usually recommended once every 3 to 5 days, with 3 to 5 sessions comprising one course of treatment. This means that during one treatment course, a patient may need to receive 3 to 5 sessions.
2. Severity of condition:
Mild condition: Significant results may be achieved with only 1 to 2 small needle knife treatments.
Severe condition: If accompanied by neck movement disorders, approximately 5 or even more treatments may be required.
3. Precautions: Although small needle knife treatment can play an auxiliary therapeutic role, it cannot completely cure cervical spondylosis. During treatment, patients should properly care for their necks and appropriately use anti-inflammatory, analgesic, or nerve-nourishing medications as directed by a physician to assist with treatment.
