Occupation - Based Prevalence of Cervical Spondylosis in the Masonry Profession
Abstract: Cervical spondylosis is an age-related condition involving the degeneration of neck discs and vertebrae. As part of the natural aging process, intervertebral discs undergo wear and tear, leading to the development of this condition. It is characterized by bone spur formation and ligament thickening. It manifests with symptoms such as neck pain and stiffness, occasionally involving nerve root compression. Its prevalence highlights its association with aging, though individual experiences of its impact can vary. In this case report, we shall discuss and evaluate the occupation-based prevalence of cervical spondylosis which includes various sectors of life. This study is done to report on the prevalence based on occupation about the musculoskeletal symptoms, the patient presents.
