The spine that makes the man to stand erect is known for its wear and tear and the consequences of that ongoing degenerative process called Cervical Spondylosis does not have sex predilection, may be sometimes troublesome. Of the total 33 spinal vertebrae cervical spine has 7 with its 8 nerve roots that come out through the intervertebral foramen. All the 7 cervical vertebrae are joined together by the intervertebral discs a fibrocartilaginous material except at C1 and C2, the Atlas and Axis namely.
