Medications used to treat nerve compression in dogs’ cervical vertebrae generally include calcium supplementation, pain relief, and anti-inflammation for this type of disease. In some cases, hormone therapy may be required. Cervical spondylosis in dogs, also called intervertebral disc herniation, refers to a spinal disease that causes movement disorders due to degeneration of the intervertebral disc, destruction of the annulus fibrosus, and dorsal protrusion of the nucleus pulposus that compresses the spinal cord. It is more common in dogs that are small, old, and have chondrodystrophic disease.

Pay attention to improving the temperature of the dog's living environment, and try to avoid humid environments and strenuous activities. Or choose physical therapy, acupuncture, etc., and pay attention to review during the treatment process to adjust the treatment plan according to the condition.
