Can spondylosis cause muscle tension? can the pain from spondylosis cause chronic muscle tension in my shoulders and upper arms?

Yes: Spinal stenosis which is frequently associated with spondylosis can cause such symptoms by nerve or spinal cord compression. With such symptoms, evaluation by a spinal surgeon is recommended.
