The neck is an important part of the long flexible column, also known as the backbone or spinal column that extends through most of the body. The neck region or the cervical spine consists of sevens bines (vertebrae C1-C7), and they are separated from each other with intervertebral discs. The discs presence helps the spine move freely and acts as a shock absorber from trauma or injury. The neck anatomy is a very well designed structure of bones, nerve, muscles, tendons, and tendons. The cervical spine covers the spinal cord that sends a message from the brain to other body organs, control locomotion, flexibility, and other body co-ordinating activities. The seven vertebrates of the neck are connected to the thoracic spine (the upper back). The stress or force can cause trauma to the cervical spine. It can lead to the development of various painful conditions such as cervical osteoarthritis, stenosis, herniated disc, and degenerative disc disease.
A variety of factors causes neck pain. Many a time, lifestyle changes, and with the help of conservative treatments, the neck pain will eventually go away. If these conventional methods do not show effective results and suffer from long-term neck pain, then surgery is recommended to treat the concern.

Protect the spinal cord
The group of nerves extends from the brain and runs through the cervical spine, thoracic spine, and lumbar spine and helps in the transmission of the information or impulses from the bran to other body parts.
Aids in head movement
The cervical spine supports the head and allows head flexibility that includes rotation, extension, and lateral bending motions. The cervical disc is present in between the cervical vertebrae, and this aid in providing strength to support the head.
Circulation of blood to the brain The vertebrae's opening in the cervical spine allows a passageway for vertebral arteries and ensures that the proper flow of blood to the brain takes place.
The most common neck concern that may require surgery
The main aim of the surgery is to remove the damaged disc to relieve the spinal cord or nerve root pressure to correct pain, weakness, and numbness.
The cervical spine surgery can be performed as decompression surgery or as fusion surgery. In this surgery, the disc or a bone is removed and fused the vertebrae together with the help of a bone graft placed either in front and behind the spine
This surgery relieves pressure from the spinal cord or nerves. The incision is made, and the bony, ridged area at the back of the vertebrae is removed. The bone spurs or disks that are causing compression are also removed.
A laminoplasty is performed to relieve pressure on the spinal cord and nerves. It also involves making an incision on the back of the neck to reduce compression on the spinal cord. This surgery involves the removal of the lamina, and metals implants are inserted. This surgery helps to address multiple areas of compression.
After the surgery, 1-5 days of hospital stay is required. The patient may feel pain and discomfort after surgery, and pain medication is prescribed to manage pain. Light activities are also recommended after surgery. One is not allowed to lift heavy objects and perform strenuous activities. One is also advised to wear a cervical collar that helps to stabilize and protect your neck.

Complications from routine neck surgery are uncommon, and one study found that the most serious complication - death - is almost non-existent. A surgical operation carries the risk of complications. Serious complications may occur even when the risk is low.
After surgery, you can expect to feel a sore throat and stiffness. This improvement should occur in the weeks following surgery. You may have trouble sitting or standing in the same position for too long and may require pain medication in the weeks following your surgery. You may need to wear a neck brace for a while.
