Is ginger helpful in the treatment of spondylitis

Condition analysis:
Spondylitis, a form of spondylopathy, is caused by the inflammation of the vertebra and is a common cause of neck and back pain. Spondylitis develops gradually and unobtrusively, with the patient only becoming aware of the condition once it has matured. The pain, at times excruciating, is usually the first indication the patient has that something is amiss. This pain is usually concentrated around the neck, shoulder and lower back and radiates outwards along the limbs.

Instructions:
1. Ginger: The best home remedies for cervical spondylosis include ginger. Ginger is an effective natural cure for cervical spondylosis. Ginger can be used as an anti-inflammatory. You can have ginger regularly in your lunch and dinner or have 2-3 cups of ginger tea regularly. Take a piece of fresh ginger, cut it into few pieces and then place the small pieces in a cup.

After adding some cold water to the cup, heat it and then steep it for 20 minutes. Then strain it and drink it. You can also mix some mustard oil and ginger oil in a cup and then heat them for 5 minutes. After that take a cotton cloth, soak it in the cup and thereafter apply the cotton cloth as a hot compress on the affected portions. You should do this 3-4 times regularly.
