Cervical spondylotic radiculopathy (CSR) is one of the most common types of cervical spondylosis, and its incidence rate is more than 60%. At present, cervical spondylosis is increasingly threatening human health, accompanied by symptoms such as dizziness, neck stiffness and pain, numbness and soreness in the upper limbs, poor lateral rotation, and worsening symptoms after fatigue. These chronic diseases have seriously threatened our physical health and caused significant negative impacts on our economy and society. With the rapid development of modern technology, mobile phones have become an indispensable part of our lives, and people from all walks of life have become the “bowhead tribe”. Long term bowhead tribe is a high-risk group for cervical spondylosis, coupled with the popularity of air conditioning and young people’s preference for drinking raw and cold drinks, which is often accompanied by the invasion of cold pathogens.
