Lumbar muscle strain, also known as chronic lumbar strain, is a chronic pathological change in the soft tissues of the lumbar region caused by multiple injuries, with persistent chronic low back pain and inconvenience in movement as the main symptoms. So what causes lumbar muscle strain? 1.Acute trauma extension. Lumbar sprain does not get proper rest and braking, which affects the normal healing of the tissue; or after the injury line massage, massage technique is too heavy, so that the healing tissue is re-damaged; or after healing, the injury leaves a large area of scar tissue, so that the small nerves in the muscle are stuck, resulting in chronic lumbar pain. 2.Accumulative chronic strain injury. The lumbar muscles are strained by high tension in a certain posture for a long time, and the microvessels within the muscles are broken and bleeding and edematous, which compress the small nerves and cause pain, and the attachment point muscle fibers are stretched and damaged, and reactive inflammation can occur. 3.Other factors. Repeated cold in the lumbar region and excessive contraction of the lumbar muscles can also induce or aggravate lumbar pain. Are your symptoms consistent with lumbar strain? 1.History of trauma to the lumbar back, or long-term improper posture of the lumbar region. 2. Recurrent episodes of low back pain, soreness and pain in the lumbar region, aggravated by exertion and relieved by rest. Protective straightening of the lumbar region due to intense pain from activities, which can return to normal with slight activities, and pain can be relieved by appropriate massage. 3.The pressure pain point is not limited. What methods are used to treat lumbar strain? This disease is a chronic disease, and non-surgical treatment is generally adopted, and comprehensive treatment is more advocated. For those with heavy pain, rest appropriately. Strengthen the muscle exercise of the lumbar back and prevent the lumbar area from getting cold. Correct bad posture and advocate sleeping on a hard bed. 1, drug treatment, Chinese medicine includes external and internal use. Western medicine includes anti-inflammatory and pain relievers, muscle relaxants (prednisone, ethylprednisolone hydrochloride), sedatives (for those who are nervous or insomniac), nerve nourishing drugs (vitamin B1). 2, acupuncture, massage, physiotherapy, cupping, acupuncture point injection, is a better treatment method. 3, nerve block therapy, applicable to those with obvious pressure points and palpable muscle spasm. 4, small needle treatment, for those with muscle adhesions or spasms with scarring.
