What are the usual causes of low back pain? I’m afraid the most common are acute sprain of the lumbar muscle, lumbar muscle strain, lumbar small joint dislocation, lumbar disc bulge or herniation, lumbar myofasciitis, lumbar supraspinous or interspinous ligament injury, and other such diseases. Don’t look at the back can get so many kinds of diseases, but you should not worry too much, because except for more special or serious cases, the majority of these diseases can be prevented and self-treated by themselves (in the vast majority of cases, not necessary surgery). The following is an introduction to self-protection and treatment knowledge related to low back pain that can be more easily grasped by the average person. Before the specific introduction, we must emphasize a few essential basic principles: 1, to cure the disease to cure the root, first of all, try to avoid the occurrence of low back pain, or to avoid or do less actions that will cause low back pain; only to remove the cause, in order to fundamentally treat low back pain, otherwise, I am afraid that the doctor can only become a god, in order to give you a cure for low back pain! 2, usually to strengthen the protection, that is, to strengthen the relevant muscles, especially the lumbar back muscle muscle strength exercises, in order to enhance the resistance of the waist to external loads or stimuli, which can also reduce the occurrence of low back pain. 3, when low back pain occurs must be appropriate and reasonable rest, especially lying down or prone, so that the damaged tissues get enough rest, the disease can be the fastest recovery. 4, never just find inexperienced masseurs and other massage massage with greater force, prone to pain aggravation or even aggravation of the condition, resulting in serious consequences. Under these principles, let’s introduce some basic prevention knowledge to you: 1. Prevention of back pain triggers: bending over to carry heavy objects, bending over for a long time to brush teeth or wash clothes, bending over for a long time to sit at work (such as computers) and so on. So prevention from this point on, we need to try to avoid these situations. Lifting heavy objects should squat first, and then move up; washing clothes, long hours of work, should often get up and move for a while, such as half an hour should have about 5 minutes of activity; of course, sitting is also very important, do not do a good posture, the damage to the waist will certainly be more serious; 2, related muscle strength exercises: mainly includes two parts: muscle strength exercises for the abdominal muscles and lumbar back muscles. Because these two groups of muscles are a pair of antagonistic muscles (that is, a group from the front to support our body, the other group from the back to support our body), both need to have enough strength to maintain our normal posture. Think about this in particular, these muscles to work for us for about seventy to eighty years, do not exercise them stronger, and how they can serve us properly for so many years? The principle of these movements above is to repeat (4-6 sets a day, each exercise to fatigue for a group) and insist (once a day or every other day practice). If we can do all of the above considerations are basic, you can basically ensure that your waist can work properly for many years.
