I do the ’10 don’ts’ to prevent lumbar spondylosis!

Lumbar spine disease is the most common in our department: lumbar muscle strain, acute lumbar sprain, lumbar disc herniation and so on, are common diseases, frequent diseases. Especially when the onset of the pain is unbearable, mood uncomfortable, very poor mood, etc., are very affect the quality of life and work. Instead of seeking medical treatment, it is actually better to understand how to prevent. We have heard all kinds of “ten forbidden”, now we give the prevention of lumbar spine disease to a “ten do not”. First, do not be cold: Chinese medicine believes that: ‘the cold main collection of the lead, the pain, the pain is not, the blood stasis’, the muscles are attacked by the cold, resulting in obstruction of qi and blood flow, the meridians are not smooth, then induced pain. So we have to keep warm. Second, don’t be lazy: Inert life will only make yourself lazier. Plan a reasonable exercise program for yourself and be consistent in order to enhance the toughness of the waist muscles. So we have to exercise. Third, do not sleep on a soft bed: sleeping on a soft bed will make the lumbar arc elongated, the muscles are in a long-term tight, stretching state, can not get a good relaxation rest. Sleeping on a hard board bed will make the low back muscles more relaxed, faster recovery of its own compensatory capacity. So we have to sleep on a hardboard bed. Fourth, do not overwork: overload the use of the lumbar spine, will only make its corresponding muscles, ligaments, joints and other wear and tear faster, premature lumbar pain and leg pain and other conditions, which will allow you to experience a little bit of old age early. So we have to combine work and rest. Fifth, do not wrong posture: writing requirements ‘horizontal and vertical’, the same way we crest also need to ‘lie flat and sit straight’. Bad sitting posture will make one side of the muscle overstretching, the formation of static injury, will also make the disc force is not uniform, inducing related diseases. So we have to have the right posture. Six, do not not prepare for the activities: Some people will appear “I just bent a waist can not move; I sneezed a waist can not” and so on, this is because you do not wake up the lumbar muscles, not let the muscles prepare for the emergency mechanism, which will lead to acute lumbar spondylolisthesis occurs. Therefore, we have to do a good job of warming up in advance before doing any action, i.e.: a small amount of lumbar activity, wake up the muscles, so that it is ready to work. So we have to do a good job of preparation. Seven, do not overdo it: excessive exercise will only make the lumbar spine in a long-term high-intensity tension, increase the load of the lumbar spine, so that the degree of strain and degeneration accelerated. So exercise in moderation. Eight, do not bear weight: weight bearing is the ‘lumbar protrusion of the taboo’, with the increasing age, the degree of toughness of the intervertebral discs will be weakened, so weight bearing will induce lumbar protrusion or aggravate the symptoms of lumbar protrusion. Think about it: now the school are for students have reduced the burden, we have to reduce the burden for the lumbar spine. Nine, do not bend: do not understand the wrong Hello, do not bend here is not so that we can not bend, but in the lifting of heavy objects, picking up items do not try to bend over and exert force or menacing bent, to do the first squatting to pick up something and then stand up to reduce the load on the lumbar region. So we pick up things have to squat. Ten, do not seek medical advice: suffering from lumbar diseases do not blindly go to the informal massage institutions for treatment, because find out the cause of the disease, symptomatic treatment, so as not to delay the condition. Therefore, the correct treatment is our insurance box to prevent the recurrence of lumbar spondylosis. So we have to judge and treat correctly.
