HI,
I understand your concern.
Routine working on computer involves bending of neck for long time ,results in stress to cervical spine & leads to spondylosis.
To manage a stress free computer operation while you have cervical spondylosis are-
- Adjusting computer screen so as to avoid flexon of neck. The height of screen should be in eye level,while key board to be adjusted at a comfortable height for hand operation & vision without flexing neck.( Special table for cervical spondylosis operator)
- Sitting with straight back & neck -touching back of chair,( no humping)
-Taking break in between & doing regular neck exercises to relieve/ prevent pain .
- Regular neck exercises under physiotherapist's guidance./ regular full body exercises& walking.
- Calcium/ vitamin D supplements / Pain killers when needed.
Thanks.
