Rheumatoid cervical spine disease is a condition of the neck (cervical spine) that can occur in patients with rheumatoid arthritis. Unlike common neck conditions, its main feature is instability of the first and second cervical vertebrae, the uppermost bones of the neck. If symptoms worsen, the spinal cord can be compressed and may lead to paralysis, so please consult a medical specialist.2026-06-26

Surfer's myelopathy is a rare condition in which reduced blood flow to the spinal cord during activities that involve excessive backward bending of the spine — such as surfing, yoga, or Pilates — leads to neurological symptoms. If leg paralysis or loss of bladder or bowel control develops after low back pain, go to the emergency room immediately.2026-06-26
