When the elderly gather at the entrance of the place or community, there are always some unscrupulous businesses under the guise of health lectures, expert consultations and so on, and then through some small gifts to dispel the concerns of the elderly, and then promote their health care products or health care appliances. Sky mattress, sky belt, sky pillow …… many elderly people frequently fall for the reports are also common in the press. The health pillow to treat cervical spondylosis is not credible At present, the domestic monitoring of the health pillow is not sound, health pillow is neither a health food, nor a medical device, there is no special management of its department, there is no scientific evaluation of the function of its medical effects. Health pillow as a health product, there are different materials, different hardness and curvature of the product, choose the right health pillow can promote blood circulation, a certain amount of help to sleep, some cervical protrusion of patients in the long-term use of symptoms will be alleviated. But it must be stressed that a pillow is not possible to prevent and treat all types of cervical spondylosis. Most businesses are exaggerating the function of the health pillow, and health pillow categories are mixed, choose the wrong health pillow will even produce adverse reactions, patients should not be gullible about the efficacy of the health pillow to treat cervical spondylosis, and many health pillow prices are not expensive. The health pillow can only be used as an aid in the prevention and treatment of cervical spondylosis, for patients suffering from cervical spondylosis is best to go to the hospital for the relevant examination, under the guidance of doctors, according to their actual situation to choose the right health pillow. Patients should not take a chance and blindly choose various types of health pillows in the hope that they can cure cervical spondylosis, which will only delay the disease. Cervical spondylosis timely diagnosis, symptomatic treatment The elderly are getting older, all aspects of the body’s function will certainly be affected. There are many types of cervical spondylosis, and different types of cervical spondylosis require different treatment methods, and improper treatment methods will only delay the condition. Therefore, when some symptoms or conditions appear, do not rush to the doctor, and must choose a regular specialist or general hospital for examination and treatment. At the same time, the children of the elderly should also take more time to care for and look after their elderly parents, not only from the material aspect, but also from the spiritual aspect. This will also allow those unscrupulous businessmen who cheat the elderly to take advantage of the situation. In addition, the weather in Chengdu has recently turned colder, the cold makes the capillaries in the muscle tissue contract, which can easily lead to muscle spasms and poor blood flow, while the active activity of the neck is reduced, so the muscle function is reduced in the state of ischemia, the muscle strength and coordination between the various muscles are reduced, so the symptoms of the elderly like Master Hu will be more and more, so family members should take them to the hospital in time to check Therefore, family members should take them to the hospital for examination and treatment in time to avoid delaying the condition. The prevention of cervical spondylosis in the elderly in winter 1, pay attention to the neck warmth. You can use a thick long scarf to keep your neck warm, which can avoid the cold in the neck, eliminate the triggering factors of cervical spondylosis and reduce the chance of cervical spondylosis. Neck warming can not only avoid neck fatigue, but also avoid the contraction of blood vessels in the head and neck due to cold, which slows down the blood circulation in the brain and has certain benefits for hypertension, cardiovascular disease, insomnia, etc. 2.Correct the bad posture in life and prevent chronic injury. Chronic strain on the soft tissues of the neck and shoulder is the pathological basis for the occurrence of cervical spondylosis. Bad posture in life is one of the main reasons for the formation of chronic strain injury. For example, long-term ambulatory work, prolonged use of computers, etc., are the main causes of cervical spondylosis. Therefore, after working continuously for a period of time, you should get up and move your neck, so that the tense neck muscles can be relaxed. 3, reasonable use of pillows. The pillow is a protective tool for the cervical spine, an adult needs to have 1/4 to 1/3 of the time for sleep every day. Therefore, the pillow must be suitable for the physiological requirements of the neck. After a person is asleep, the neck and shoulder muscles are completely relaxed, relying only on the elastic bundle of intervertebral ligaments and joint capsule to maintain the normal relationship between the vertebral structures. If you use a pillow of unsuitable height for a long time, so that the cervical spine somewhere flexed excessively, it will be here the ligaments, joint capsule stretch and injury, which leads to cervical instability, joint dislocation, and then develop into cervical spondylosis. In addition, choose certain sports to enhance muscle strength and physical fitness exercise, can also prevent the occurrence of cervical spondylosis. Physical therapy can treat cervical spondylosis 1, traction method: through the mutual balance between traction force and anti-traction force, so that the head and neck relatively fixed in the physiological curve state, so that the cervical spine curve incorrect phenomenon gradually changed, but its efficacy is limited, only suitable for mild neurogenic cervical spondylosis patients; and in the acute period, traction is prohibited to prevent local inflammation, edema aggravation. 2, oral drug therapy: mainly used to relieve pain, local anti-inflammatory, relaxation muscle treatment, for cervical instability and other secondary local soft tissue strain and other efficacy is clear, but can not treat cervical spondylosis at the root. For patients with weakness or numbness of the limbs, neurotrophic drugs can also be used to assist in rehabilitation and promote the recovery of the compressed nerves. 3.Chinese medicine is profound and effective but has a lot to do with the personal experience of the doctor and needs to be chosen carefully. 4.Physiotherapy: physiotherapy is the abbreviation of physical therapy. Is the application of natural and artificial various physical factors, such as sound, light, electricity, heat, magnetism and other effects on the human body, in order to achieve the purpose of treatment and prevention of disease. However, its effect is also weak and cannot be treated at the root. And often physical therapy is easy to produce burns on the skin.
