Our lives are not still, changes often happen in it, but they are all useful for our body? There are many reasons for deterioration of his work. So, the sedentary lifestyle leads to an increase in the number of different diseases.
One of the most common diseases of our time is osteochondrosis. In recent years, more than half of the population has been ill in some countries in some countries. At the same time, the age of the disease decreases to 20-30 years.
These facts make each of us think about this problem. It is necessary to have at least a minimal idea of what osteochondrosis is, which contributes to the development of the disease, as it usually manifests how rationally can be prevented and whether it is possible to stop the disease in the early stages of development.
Osteochondrosis is a common disease that suffers the joints and cartilage between them is destroyed. In most cases, osteochondrosis affects the spine, where, as a result of deformity of the tissues of the intervertebral discs, many serious complications occur, leading to pain in different parts of the body.
There are many reasons for the development of spinal problems, more special, the curvature can occur due to:
First, it is cervical osteochondrosis, which is most common in people with a sedentary lifestyle. With cervical osteochondrosis, the slight load of the neck leads to the fact that the vertebrae are displaced in which the vessels and nerves are squeezed. It is in this type of disease that headaches, dizziness, pain in the hands and even tingling of the tongue occur.
Thoracic osteochondrosis is a very rare type of disease. The cause of its appearance may be banal scoliosis.
In this case, there is no acute pain in the spine, but you can observe chest pain and heart pain. Men with breast osteochondrosis often suffer from impotence.
Lumbar osteochondrosis may be a complication in the form of an intervertebral hernia in the lumbar region. This type of disease is characterized by the presence of lower back and leg pain, the patient's mobility is limited: the patient is not able to turn or lean.
The manifestations of osteochondrosis have different signs depending on the stage of the disease. There is often pain in the space near the joints. With osteochondrosis of the spine, severity and severe back pain and other parts of the body are most often noticeable.
Often with osteochondrosis, patients have a feeling of tingling and limb pain. Symptoms are exacerbated by physical activity and gross movements. Osteochondrosis of the cervical region causes severe pain in the head, as well as in the area of the shoulders and in the hands.
Also, with damage to osteochondrosis of the middle part of the spine, there is pain in the chest (often in the heart) and pain in some internal organs.
There are 4 stages of the course of such problems with the chest department and each of these stages is accompanied by characteristic symptoms:
The timely detection of the disease in the early stages can be performed with the help of the modern NMR apparatus, which provides doctors to more accurate data on the condition of the vertebrae than x -ray or ultrasound.
In the treatment of osteochondrosis, conservative methods have proven well, which are intended to eliminate the pain and prevent the progression of destructive processes in the structure of the spine. If such treatment does not lead to a positive result, then surgery may be required.
The duration of treatment depends on the stage of the disease, the age of the patient and how much conscientiously the appointment and recommendations of the doctor fulfill. Most often, treatment as such takes about a few months, after surgery follows the recovery, which lasts for about a year.
In the course of treatment, many people can enhance pain syndrome. Thus, the muscular system responds to unusual effects. If you want the treatment to lead to a positive result, you must show patience, perseverance and a certain willpower.
After performing surgery, the patient is usually placed in a specialized medical center or sanatorium where there are diagnostic and medical facilities qualified practitioners.
Conservative treatment includes methods such as physiotherapy, physiotherapy, massage, manual therapy, reflexology and finally, drug therapy.
Complex treatment, not structuring. It includes physiotherapy, manual therapy, massage, if necessary - spinal adhesion and administration of various medicines. In order to recover from osteochondrosis, it is necessary to engage in physiotherapy exercises. The result of the treatment depends on the patient and his perseverance, perseverance, willpower, patience and great desire for recovery.
Starting with exercise, you should perform slightly warm muscles and joints.
When painful symptoms occur after class, you should consult a doctor immediately.
The proper implementation of LFK movements in breast osteochondrosis is very important, as these actions contribute to reducing the pain and suspension of the progression of the disease.
The hands are behind the head. It is necessary to perform on the floor or on any dense surface under the shoulder blades, placed a soft roller (can be manually shaped by a towel or other soft material). Bend your back slightly, then lift your head with your hands. Repeat 5-10 times.
Keep your hands thin, put a dumbbell in each. Gradually displace your elbows back, thus squeezing shoulder blades. Slowly smaller.
Keep your back exactly, lift both hands up. Grasp the wrist with your left hand with your left hand and gradually lean to the right, stretching the right side. Repeat the movements with a tendency to the left.
Bring your palms behind your head, make slow inclinations to the right and left.
Then slowly bend forward, bending over the shovels on the back of the chair, bend.
Drug therapy often has a limited effect and often has a negative effect on the functioning of other bodily systems. Therefore, physiotherapy methods of treatment are actively introduced actively in the rehabilitation process.
Physiotherapy is considered an effective method of treatment as it affects directly the damaged vertebrae and significantly reduces pain after the first session.
Physiotherapy allows:
Depending on the nature of the pain (acute and fire stages), damage to one department or the other, the causes of the disease, physiotherapy specialists may prescribe physiotherapy based on mechanical, electrical, sound, light effects on tissues, magnetotherapy.
In cases where it is necessary to eliminate the pain syndrome and to supply medication to the focus of inflammation, a set of procedures may be prescribed.
They are not a cure, it can only be an addition to the basic treatment. The application is possible after authorizing a doctor. Prepare a jar with a liter, pour finely chopped sword root into it (fill in about a third of the jar). Then pour vodka (to the top), take it into the dark for a three -week infusion. All you have to do is shake it from time to time. Then strain, drink daily before eating (three times) with a dose of 20 ml. The dose dose is allowed (100 ml). Do rubbing with the same tincture.
The treatment of osteochondrosis is followed by the traditional way of treating many diseases of the musculoskeletal system: NSAIDs are prescribed to eliminate the inflammatory process in the tissues, joints to restore the level of synovial fluid and corticosteroids, if the first two types of drugs are ineffective.
To prevent the development of osteochondrosis, you must follow certain rules.
First, the spine should not be overloaded. Try to prevent sudden movements, follow your posture before exercising you can do your back massage.
Second, do not neglect the contrast shower and hardening, but do not allow hypothermia.
Finally, proper nutrition and rejection of smoking plays a big role.
