Cervical instability refers to a condition in which the bones of the neck (cervical vertebrae) are not properly aligned or do not move smoothly against each other. This can lead to pain, discomfort, and a range of other symptoms. Cervical instability can be caused by a variety of factors, including degenerative changes in the neck, injury or trauma such as whiplash, and certain medical conditions. In some cases, cervical instability may be treated with non-surgical approaches such as chiropractic, dry needling and prolotherapy, but in other cases, surgery may be necessary to stabilize the neck and alleviate symptoms. It is important to consult with a Dr. Philipose and consider a digital motion x-ray study and ultrasound for proper diagnosis and treatment of cervical instability
