SPONDY AID DROPS

'Spondylosis' refers to degeneration of the spine. Most often, the term Spondylosis is used to describe osteoarthritis of the spine. This includes the discs or cushions between the vertebrae and the joints between the bones of the cervical spine. There may be abnormal growths or "spurs" on the bones of the spine (vertebrae).These changes can, over time, press down on (compress) one or more of the nerve roots. In advanced cases, the spinal cord becomes involved. The term can be used to describe degeneration in the:

• Neck - Cervical Spondylosis.
• Lower back - Lumbar Spondylosis.
• Middle back - Thoracic Spondylosis

The major risk factor is aging. By age 60, most women and men show signs of Spondylosis on x-ray. Other factors that can make a person more likely to develop Spondylosis are:

• Being overweight and not exercising
• Heavy lifting/bending and twisting
• Past neck/ back injury
• Past spine surgery
• Ruptured or slipped disc
• Severe Arthritis
• Small fractures to the spine from Osteoporosis
• Heredity/Genetic Factor
• Over straining of neck & back due to sitting jobs including work on computers

In 'Cervical Spondylosis' pain may be felt over the shoulder blade or it may spread to the upper arm, forearm or (rarely) fingers. It is usually noticed to worsen after standing or sitting/ at night/ with sneeze, cough or laugh/ bending neck backwards or walking more than a few yards. Other common symptoms include neck stiffness numbness or abnormal sensations in the shoulders or arms, headaches especially in the back of the head & loss of balance or vertigo.

'Lumbar Spondylosis' usually produces no symptoms. When back or sciatic pains are symptoms, Lumbar Spondylosis is usually an unrelated finding. Symptoms include tingling, numbness, weakness and pain that can spread through the lower back, tailbone, hip joints, buttocks, thighs, down the legs to toes and loss of bowel/ bladder control.

In 'Frozen Shoulder', the shoulder capsule thickens and becomes tight. Stiff bands of tissue — called adhesions — develop. In many cases, there is less synovial fluid in the joint. The hallmark sign of this condition is being unable to move one's shoulder - either with one's own effort or with the help of someone else, accompanied with pain initially which later spontaneously resolves.

'Spondy Aid' with its novel formulation prevents degenerative processes of these joints and provides relief from stiffness of back and aches. It also helps liberates one from other accompanying symptoms like vertigo, nausea, giddiness and weakness.

'Spondylosis' refers to degenerative Osteoarthritis of the joints between the centre of the spine. Spondy Aid is useful in treating the diseases of the spine and back. This combination helps in reducing the pain and inflammation of the affected joints. It significantly reduces stiffness and radiating pain associated with Cervical and Lumbar Spondylosis, thereby improving the ability to function normally. It also reduces muscular spasm and frequency of pain thus restoring the general strength of the body.

Indications: For pain, stiffness & soreness in muscles of the back, arising from degenerative changes in the spine.
