Condition analysis:
There are degenerative changes seen in the small bones of the neck spine. This is also causing pressure effects on the nerve roots which exit through small holes between these bones. Also there is pressure on the spinal cord posteriorly. The spinal cord remains safe though. You may need to do physiotherapy and take pain medications if in severe discomfort.

Instructions:
Cayenne Pepper: The capsaicin from cayenne pepper is so effective that cayenne must be included in the list of home remedies for cervical spondylosis. With anti-inflammatory and analgesic properties, cayenne can help you soothe inflammation and pain at neck extremely well.

How to use:
-- Take a teaspoon of cayenne powder with 2 tablespoon of warm olive oil to mix and apply the mixture onto the painful area. Use a bandage to cover overnight. Perform every day.

-- Another way is taking a teaspoon of cayenne powder into some warm water and consuming 2 to 3 times every day.
