Abstract:

Objective To analyze the risk factors of vertigo in young and middle-aged patients with cervical curvature changes. Methods From June 2016 to March 2017, collecting the young patients with vertigo from the Department of Neurology of the Third Affiliated Hospital of Xinxiang. There were 78 cases, of which were 32 males and 46 females.Based on whether the cervical curvature change, dividing the patients into normal cervical curvature group (n=22)and abnormal cervical curvature group(n=56), analysis of the clinical characteristics between the two groups we carried out, to investigate the correlation between cervical curvature change and the different type of dizziness. Results The ABCD2 scores and dizziness clinical symptoms were significantly higher than those in the normal cervical flexure group, and the difference was statistically significant (P<0.05). There was a high positive correlation between the abnormal curvature of the cervical spine and the different dizziness types (P<0.01). Conclusion With the prolonging of sick time, the change of cervical lordosis increases, clinical symptoms of dizziness in youth is more and more serious.
