How cervical instability can cause chronic nausea - the relationship between nausea and the neck
HTML-код
- Опубликовано: 17 июл 2024
- One of the most common symptoms that our patients with cervical instability complain of is nausea. In this video, Ross Hauser, MD gives an overview of the mechanisms by which cervical instability causes nausea. In our experience, when a person's neck stability and curve are restored, the nausea is typically resolved. Of course, there are many reasons for nausea, but the primary focus of this presentation is the relationship between nausea and the neck.
To read more about nausea, gastroparesis, and other common GI problems and why they are commonly found in patients with cervical instability, check out our articles: www.caringmedical.com/proloth...

Wow... I think you just helped answer questions to problems I've had since my early 20s. I'm 40 now!😢 I'm tired of feeling miserable!!!!
Hi Bambi K Shook, Glad it was helpful and you are looking into possible options to help you. Sorry to hear you have been dealing with these symptoms for 2 decades. Wishing you all the best in healing!
I'm living in a never ending nightmare and know that some of these things could play a big part in it. I live in a small place that doesn't offer these services but sure wish I could go to this place. Thank you for sharing these videos and, I'm sure, helping so many people. Bless you
Absolutely incedible Dr Hauser how you make such a complicated system sound so simple - thank you for your amazing videos and the awesome diagrams too 👍👌💕
Hi Terry, Appreciate your kind feedback. Glad it was helpful. Wishing you all the best in health!
Nice video man. Answers a lot.
I am only about 2:55 in at this point but WOW this is incredible!! Thank You!!!! I just had my second cervical fusion above the first one and this makes so much sense, even more so for my mother who also has cervical instability but is unable to have any type of surgery safely.
I am speechless. This may be a huge peice to my health puzzle. Thank you.
You're welcome, Lynn. Wish you all the best in healing!
I love listening to you Ross! I have nausea often but not so severe that I throw up but just enough to make me feel bad all the time. I kept thinking it’s some thing I’m eating but I can’t seem to find any pattern that makes sense. Last week my husband gave me a ride on his motorcycle and when he punched it, it threw my head back and my response was immediate feeling of nausea and dizziness. I have noticed this before and so I am making a connection with what you were talking about. You are too far away for me to come to for evaluation but I am hoping there would be some tips, exercising, Or something I could do to strengthen my neck. I also noticed when I sing while playing my guitar, sometimes I feel lightheaded. I can’t help but wonder if it’s like lack of oxygen to my brain. I’m sure somehow all these things are connected. I so hope you can see my comment and give me suggestions?
I always have low appetite and a bit sick if I wake up with neck pain ,it really messes with my life
You are amazing thanks.❤❤
Wow dude thank you so much. I’m realizing i have the ear fullness one. I’ve started doing exercises for my instability, trying to get enough change to book a chiropractor visit. I’m 21 and struggling and extremely stressed. As long as my family is happy i can deal with chronic nausea every morning. I really do need help tho if anyone has any online work 💯
Hi @3rd_coast_grower462! Glad that you are looking into some possibilities and research for getting to the root cause of your ear fullness. We wish you all the best in your search and hope that you can find some relief when visiting your chiro! Take care.
This is fascinating. I’ve just come across your videos on cervical instability. I believe this might be what I have! I’ve done all sorts of tests and nobody can tell me why I cannot digest my food and why I’m always bloated and nauseous, fatigued, etc. I’m excited to learn more and to get the motion x-ray. I’ve had this for 6 years (following a bad fall/double whiplash) and I’m very ready to heal and feel better! Do you know of anyone that does this type of assessment and treatment in Ontario Canada by any chance?
I have 6 cervical herniated discs causing spinal deformity, spinal stenosis and more ... and now I understood why I get so nauseous so much and why I get bloated!! I'm 40 yo and never had bloating issues until a couple years ago. I had my MRI of neck in 2015. But bloating started in like 2019. Have you had an MRI done, yet?
I have all this. Miserable. Elevators at work make me dizzy & I have thrown up. I've taken 3 zofran in a 12 hr shift. Bloated frequently. Eating can make me very sick. Tinnitus gets loud suddenly. I get car sick. The chiropractors I saw ... one hurt me bad doing a bear hug. Another one did feel I had cervical instability. You know your stuff for sure.
very good video, thank you very much and greetings from Baden near Vienna!
Hi Elmar Alexej, Thank you, and we wish you all the best in health!
I may need to come down to Florida to see you. My neck is making me sick nearly every day. My neurologist and chiropractor haven't been able to help.
I wish you were my doctor
I thought it had to do with my heart cause I have chiari malformation. Thst explains a lot listening to this
hello doc ! are you familiar with depersonalization? Could it be related to a pinched vagus nerve? A lot of people are suffering!
I wonder if this is why get incredibly car sick if i try and read or look at my phone in the car.
Yes it could be
Exact same..Ugghh
Sorry if you've covered it previously, but could you talk about the damage from fluoroquinolones on the joints, tendons and ligaments? Could it possibly lead to causing cervical instability? I listened to one of your other videos on that and every single symptom applies to me and I started having systemic issues 6 years ago from Cipro and more recently my left shoulder seems subluxated and my hips and knees are in agony. I am interested in prolotherapy as a possible therapy for this.
Never see chiropractor's for these symptoms i can't see any I've told a chiropractor my symptoms & he's like no way he'd touch me cause he knew it would make me worse. I'm tired of suffering having neuropathy, degenerate disc disease, severe arthritis, stenosis, scoliosis, nerve damage, numbness, tingling, burning, itching, burning mouth syndrome, blurry vision, light headed, weakness, fatigue, nausea everyday, scalp pain, neck is killing me, my bones feel like I'm on fire, break out in sweats, left temple hurts last few months, i have one last resort I'm driving 4 hour's just to see if i csn get the nerves burned cause i heard it works & i need this cause feeling llike this 24/7 makes me want to give up on life no one should have to live life like this. 😭
Hi Rebecca, we understand how debilitating these symptoms can be. It is great that you are looking into some alternative treatment options and we are praying for your healing! We are accepting new patients and would love to help you - please reach out to us directly and someone from our clinical team can learn more about your case!
Just over 3 years ago, I started having bouts of nausea and vomiting, when it first began, it would happen ever 8 weeks or so, it presented almost like a stomach bug, except I noticed when this occurred I always had neck pain, at the base of my neck where my neck meets the head, I was sent for endoscopies , ultra sound on gall bladder, stomach, liver, pancreas, no answers , then Covid stopped all tests , by now I am sick almost weekly, waiting now for gastric emptying test and barium follow , however I really feel the problem is coming from my neck, I am beginning to feel that I can’t go on like this, it’s so miserable , especially since losing my husband to Covid in the middle of all of this, I just am so fed up of feeling and actually being sick, it’s like the severe morning sickness I experienced when I had my children, but there was a reason for the nausea then, this nausea has no reason , I just want to know if the neck pain could mean that this nausea is a neck problem and not a stomach one, as gastrologist just isn’t able to find a cause with the stomach
Hi Chelly - thank you for sharing part of your story and we are so sorry to hear about your husband. We understand how frustrating it can be to not have answers, especially when it has such a big effect on your life. Nausea and other digestive issues are symptoms of cervical instability so you are not far off. Dr. Hauser wrote an article on this if you'd like to further your research. www.caringmedical.com/prolotherapy-news/nausea-gastroparesis-caused-cervical-spine-instability/#:~:text=Cervical%20instability%20can%20lead%20to,symptoms%20of%20nausea%20and%20vomiting.
We are not sure where you are located but we have patients who travel to our office from all over the globe and we would love to hear more about your case. Please reach out to us directly and someone from our clinical team can help you get scheduled for an exam and consult - at a minimum you'd have a diagnosis and answer to these symptoms.
I went to a chiropractor and he gave me a neck adjustment. After that I started feeling dizziness and nausea. It doesn't go away. It's been affecting my life bigtime. I have never felt this way before until after that neck adjustment. What can be done to fix this problem. I constantly feel pressure in my head like I'm light headed as well. I know this problem is coming from my upper neck area. I can feel it in there. And no matter what kind of stretching or massaging I do, nothing helps. I just want my life back. I wish I never went to see that chiropractor
Maybe your inner ear crystals are in the wrong place? Maybe you can be seen by an ear, nose and throat Dr or a PT. They can do different maneuvers to help get the crystals back into place.
How are you doing now?
Doing alot better. The body heals on it's own over time. I still feel neck tightness and a bit of dizziness but I feel alit better than before. I know with time I'll be completely healed.
@@brendanschroeder1862 surrendered completely to Jesus Christ. Prayer, lots of it. Literally that. With time it got better. I'm back to normal now. I believe I more gentle way to realign the neck and spine will help alot. It took a year for me to feel better. My faith in God helped me get through it.
You are not alone. I've being experienced that horrible feeling since from along time ago now it's not being too bad but I still feel sick a little bit but it will take very long for it to go away.
So in addition to whatever medications they put me on for gastroparesis (and type 2 diabetes) I need to be checked for cervical instability?
I have had all of this lately, neck pain, ear achey, dizzy, that left….now Im just nauseous and I wonder if Covid causes this. Thank you, love your video’s!
Bro,are you heal now..i have the same sickness..suggest me wat medicine you take
Is prolotherapy recommended is someone forms keloid scars?
What do you think about BPC157... supplements...❤️
Thankyou for explaining this.
I have such immense neck and head pain and stiffness that I am not only nauseous but I’m vomiting throughout the day, my head feels like it’s going to break open. I can’t function and nothing stops the pain.
My dr told me the body is saying; “I’m in so much pain that I’m about to faint, but I will vomit to give myself some relief”. I’m told this type of pain issue can cause a stroke. That’s so scary.
I recently had a car accident and X-rays showed C1 & C2 are fused, not sure how that happened, but the accident has aggravated my neck and now I have this debilitating pain.
Is there any treatment or cure for this particular issue?
Sounds like cervicogenic headache ,they are awful
Do you get eye pain with yours aswell
I have cervical stenosis accompanied by headaches, nausea, upset stomach. What therapy is best? I do PT and am getting shots in neck. We do not have prolotherapy here
Hi Dr Hauser, you are my favorite UC doctor on YT but you are too far away from me. Can you tell me the best way to find a good qualified UC doctor near me please? I’m mostly worried about my young daughter. Thank you for any help! We are close to Scranton PA by the way.
Hi Ty, Thank you for your kind feedback. Hope that you will be able to find help locally for your young daughter. We do not know of any other office that does the same variety of motion diagnostics or has the same level of experience with Prolotherapy for the neck. However, you may find an upper cervical chiropractor who might do some curve analysis and be able to help her with alignment or curve issues. We understand travel is not feasible for everyone nor can we accept all cases, but if travel was possible in the future, we'd be happy to review her case in greater detail. For now, we wish you and your family all the best in health as well as with your search! Take care.
Can yoga and breathing exercices help with cervical instability and nausea? or does one have to do surgery?
Is nausea synonym to vertigo or dizziness?
Are you using it in the same meaning?
Mother has had frontal vertigo..dizziness where nothing seems to work anymore....
What are the steps for differential diagnosis...?a..b..c etc.
What kind of examination would you need before seeing a patient?
No ,it's just nausea
@@SRBOMBONICA86 Thank you.
Hello, I had a fall like 3 years ago and was told at first I had a herniated disk and during these past 3 years I've dealt with neck pain and when I lean over to pick something up or brush my hair, I feel like heavy pressure pushing down on my neck, I feel extremely nauseated and dizzy....I had an MRI but Dr. Said I do not have a herniated disk anymore but that I have spondylosis, ....I never had any problems with my neck or having nausea and dizziness until i fell. My question is, did the fall set up the spondylosis or contribute to the worsening symptoms?
U have breathing issue
Hello, I once commented on a video of yours regarding the vegaus (spell ck) nerve. Now, I’ve seen a neurologist who put me on meds, eventually wanted me on medical marijuana, I’ve seen 3 EnT’s and had been determined it is not my ears. I’ve seen family dr of course can’t help. I’ve seen an orthopedic-spine/neck dr recently had an MRI showing normal of the cervical. However, just recently I am having once again dizziness, vertigo, continued ringing in ears(about a year now, maybe antidepressant med don’t know) and today started to get nauseous. The doc says to see well a neurologist ugh 😩 no one has yet to mention this nerve you have mentioned before nor have they mentioned cervical instability. I do have mild disc issue in lumbar which has yet to be addressed so when I was working and sitting at desk my neck and lumber were having a field day with me! So much I had to quit my job. When this started a few years back my left eye blacked one for a few seconds…I was treated months later for migraines. I am also currently having muscle twitches from time to time in different areas particularly around my legs. So, is it possible I have a pinch nerve? Can this not be seen in an MRI? Or is this the vegous nerve? HELP-
how are you now?
Have you had an MRI head?
@@learnerdas well it’s all fibromyalgia with spinal spondylitis (arthritis). The legs issues recently still not sure I think it may still be sciatica. Seeing a new pain mgmt Dr. As neuro surgeons really don’t treat these symptoms. Not surgery. Trying to find a balance of pain mgmt and therapy. Thank You for asking! 🙏
@@KiwikimNZ I have a few years back. Not recently. Same symptoms back then and all was clear. I’ve also had blood work in 2020 ruling out RA and Lupus. Thank You for asking 🙏
@@Liz-jp9ro oh that is so disheartening! Wow you poor thing I hope you can find answers xx hugs
If the stomach stops working what makes the esophogus to stop working?
Hi doc!
I had been diagnosed with loss of cervical lordosis last year. I have also been under extreme health anxiety and suffer from cervical pain, all the symptoms you’ve mentioned and nausea sometimes. Do you think these can be caused by my cervical instability?
Hi - we are so sorry to hear that you are dealing with this, we know it can be extremely difficult especially when it interferes with your daily life. Cervical instability could very well be the cause of these symptoms and issues - although the only way to determine for sure would be to have an exam and do testing. In our office we perform a DMX, cone beam and ultrasound to determine a diagnosis.
Where can this nausea be? I have a constant nausea in my throat/neck area and at the beginning of this year, I have also lost my sense of hunger.
i have chronic stomach pan and nausea,
i have neck stiffness and pain especially on the left side up at C1 C2.
my pain comes on like an angry lion when it’s time to eat. it’s nothing like a hunger pain. it’s a burning and overwhelming nasty pain. i better eat or it’s curtains.
even after a meal it persists for hours and hours and over night into the next day.
i’ve had every possible test done known to man kind. all of them.
this has been pure hell every day for three years. it comes on like a light switch.
the only thing that can cause furious pain in an instant is a nerve.
one day i can eat iceberg lettuce another day it starts a bonfire in my stomach.
come on, it’s not food, it’s not SIBO, it’s not CANDIDA, and it’s not a parasite…….IT CAN ONLY BE A NERVE.
it’s time for a DMX. then i’m coming to see you.
What happened to you, how are you feeling now?
My 18 year old daughter has been vomiting for most of her life. We are desperate for help. Her therapist is certain it is related to vegus nerve. All doctors have not been able to figure this out. I feel wholeheartedly this is it. Can you help her? We live in Chicago but will come to Florida. Anything at this point. She is at the end of trying to function as she cannot endure this any longer.
Hi Kristen, Very sorry to hear about your daughter's struggle with vomiting and vagus nerve-related symptoms. You are welcome to reach out to us directly through our website and speak with our team about the case review process. We do treat patients who travel from Chicago and we'd be happy to help your family if it sounds like a good fit. Wishing you all the best in health and getting to the root cause of the problem affecting your daughter. Take care, Kristen.
Hello Kristen, how is your duaghter now?
Hi. I'm from Bangladesh. I have a friend who is having severe gut issues for last one and half year. Now we are in India for her treatment. She has lost 13kgs in just one year. Her stomach intestines are not contracting at all. She can't eat anything. None of the doctors could find out her problem. We have watched all of your videos. We can't go to your country. We want to do video consultation with yoy. Is this possible? How can i get you? Please let us know. Please help us. She is suffering a lot.

Me too. How are you now?
Can cervicogenic headache cause this
Hi @Kim-ss5bb, Cervical instability is the culprit in the majority of non-hormone or diet-related headaches and migraines. Dr Hauser wrote an article about this topic if you'd like to further your research! www.caringmedical.com/prolotherapy-news/chronic-headaches-neck-pain/
If you are experiencing cervicogenic headaches we would love for you to come in for a consult!
When i wake up i cant move i hate the feeling and my back is stiff
Sorry to hear that AJ MMA- hope you can get in to see a structural medicine specialist to get to the bottom of it. Take care.
Doctor, I have had a colonoscopy, Endoscopy, ultrasound, stool test, blood test...found nothing yet I have constant nausea for many many months with headache and some indigestion. Ran across this...I eat clean whole foods diet and exercise daily. So now what?
same,have you cured it yet?
Same, have you found anything to help?
Have you had any imaging of your head
I’ve been nauseated for 8 years. I don’t enjoy food at all everything makes me feel like being sick. It’s horrible.
Thats horrible how are u still survive this
@@simpayshenaides thank you. It has been horrible. I do not enjoy any food at all. Chocolate milk is about it. I take anti nausea medication most days, it was very hard living in pain and nauseated as well as many other symptoms, I went through a lot of heartache feeling so miserable all the time, but I really had to mentally be strong and I’ve learnt to not try to focus on it now. I can’t let it get to me, I’ve just come out of a depressive episode and I refuse to let it beat me. X
@@KiwikimNZ im having nausea for 6 Months now im really worried if its going to be really permanent i feel like i cant no longer go travel outside. Im also mentally broken. Goodluck for ur Health
@@simpayshenaides oh really! Yes it does get you down doesn’t it. You do not realise how much something like this effects your joy. What is it that you think triggered your nausea? Have you had tests done? Do you try any anti nausea medication? It can make you feel terrible I totally understand and I hope that you can get some relief and some help with your problem. I’m so sorry. I really understand how hard it is. Hugs to you xxx
how are you now? i am having nausea constantly, shoulder, neck, headaches, arm pain etc. my ecg and chest xray is normal and clear. dont know whats wrong with me. i m just 26. so much to do in life but its making me sick.
Like when they put me traction with weights 😭 awful
"Beautiful SW Florida". The only reason K haven't been down there yet to the office is the weather there 🥵🥵
A robot would sounds more alive.
