Cervical spondylosis can cause palpitation symptoms, mainly seen in sympathetic cervical spondylosis. It is due to the cumulative strain and degenerative changes of the cervical spine, resulting in segmental instability of the cervical spine, stimulating the sympathetic nerves adjacent to the spine, causing sympathetic excitation, causing vertebral artery contraction, resulting in insufficient blood supply to the vertebrobasilar artery. It can also cause coronary artery contraction, resulting in myocardial insufficiency, resulting in dizziness, headache, nausea, vomiting, palpitation, chest tightness and other clinical symptoms, if the disease lasts for a long time, the patient will also cause anxiety symptoms.
