It will be highly appreciable if you can highlight the indications on which one can prescribe syph .....Sangunaria in reference to Cervical spondolysis .

Syph is prescribed in the begining as cervical spondylitis is degenrative disease as suggested by D laxminarayanan P.hd. Syph has destructive and ulcerative processes. I always start the treatment of Arthritis/Spondylosis and get good results.
When pain extends to Right shoulder and arm, Sanguinaria 200 is given. Kalmia (30to 1M)is used in numbing pain extending to Right arm and hand.
In cervical Spondylitis producing vertigo with nausea or vomiting with sensitiveness to noise, Theridion is needed.

Sir,
Many time patient comes to me from the office. Every patient says 'I am having Cervical spondylitis'.
Orthopedic doctor first advice them to take a x- ray of neck AP/Lat. It suggest no any abnormality. Still the pain persist without having any bony abnormality.
Then they suggest CT and MRI of a brain to find something new. But all are fruiteless because problem is in the nerve which is getting irriteted by overuse or position of the neck. PAtient has complaints of neck pain extending to the occipute resion and vertex later it comes to orbital region(lt or rt or both)

What I do to my cases. I always start him first neck exercise i.e neck up and down, right and left and circular motion of head.
homoeopathic management:
Rhus tox 3o. repeated doses,
or bryonia30 repeated doses
rhus for over lifting or overusing of neck due to bad position.
