Osteochondrosis of the lumbar region is a disease that deforms and destroys cartilage tissue of intervertebral discs in the lower back.Without a layer of cartilage, the distance between vertebral is significantly reduced.And with the smallest sharp curves can be switched.The main risk of disease is the possibility of forming an intervertebral hernia.
Can't you lean to pick up the item that fell to the floor?Do you suffer acute pain in lumbar spine and you often go, in the waist in a warm scarf?Don't ignore the condition that bother you.
The osteochondrose of the lumbar region can be returned for a long time.There is no need for the body to be experienced for strength.Love your body.And he'll be back.
The lumbar region makes most of the cargo from all body weight compared to the chest and the storm.Therefore, this subspecies of osteochondrose is the most common.
Fact.According to the statistics WHO, osteochondrose Lumbusacral department is diagnosed mainly in the population of 30 years.
Causes of osteochondrose Department of Lumbusacratra
- Long stay in a seated position, as a result that the muscle cortset becomes weakened, and the load on the vertebrae is growing
- Training for lifting weight or regular weight lifting
- Distorting position, and with it and walking
- After bruises, falls and fractures
- Flat feet.When moving a foot set usually softens the degree of skeleton pressure on the spine, but with straight legs, the entire load lies on intervebrellar disks
- Excess weight
- Standing stay in the background of benefits
- As a complication after bone tuberculosis or osteomyelitis (a contagious inflammation), a spine survey (inflammation of the spine) or rheumatoid arthritis (connective tissue lesion, mainly in joints, mainly in joints)
- Hormonal defective functions, changed composition of blood
- Age transformations (vertebrae and intervertebral discs lose elasticity with age)
- Stress and chronic insomnia
- Hypothermia
Symptoms of lurbosacral osteochondrose
- On a place of nervous fibers, tingling, ignition "crawling goosebumps," starts stiffness
- Quick start of fatigue and sudden attacks of irritability
- Deviations in the order of the menstrual cycle
- Excessively tensed muscles of lower back
- Increase sweating
- Leather becomes pale and dry, a person who frequently freezes
- Pain low: pain extended and lumbago (shooting acute pain).Buttocks and rudds can be given.Simultaneously, legs in the literal sense of the word "don't hold" or do not go
Fact.Did you know what is being killed in the lower back?They are also called "holes of Venus".This is an anatomical characteristic, inherent in mostly female physics.The imposed hammers indicate the normal body weight of its owners, good muscle development and blood circulation.In the renaissance period, such a visual characteristic enthusiastic sculptors and artists from 15. century.
Syndromes in pain differ depending on the causes of their phenomenon:
- Radiculopathy: caused by compression of radicular structures
- Compression Mineopathy: The pain appears due to the compression of spinal cord
- Compression-vascular Myeloischemy: occurs due to artery constrict and supply veins
- Ishias: Due to pushing the nerve jider, which passes with his butt and thigh
Who will call help?
If you find any of the signs of the disease, contact a neurologist.The inspection will be carried out, determine the probable cause of pain and prescribe the necessary diagnosis.
Diagnosis of osteochondrose lumbar
Each diagnosis begins with a doctor who conduct an initial examination.During this procedure, the doctor will determine whether you have scoliosis, kyphosis, moving one of the buttocks or flattening lorks.
Neuropathologist will direct you to review: CT (calculated tomography), MRI (magnetic resonant tomography) and radiography.
Methods of treatment of osteochondrose lumbar
After the analysis of diagnostic results, your present doctor will choose the desired treatment flow.Treatment methods are different: can be medicinal therapy, physiotherapy, or, in case of emergency, operations.
So, which is the essence of the medical method.This includes taking a series of medicines.We give their approximate list.
- Analgesics: eliminate pain but do not alleviate the cause of its occurrence
- NSAIDS (Nonsteroidal Anti-Inflamatory Medicines): Fight against pain and swelling
- Musorelaxans: Relax muscles
- Chondroprotektori: Due to the improvement of metabolic processes in the cartilage fabric, they slow the deformation of cartilage and even regenerate them
- Diuretics: Remove swelling
- B Vitamins B: Remove excess fluid, improve metabolism in cells
- Immunity agents General and medications to improve blood flow in the pathology zone
Sometimes in difficult cases, in order to immediately mitigate acute pain, have to "bomb the body with powerful injections.Then the doctor makes a patient-colored paraer blockade.The specialist introduces anesthesia at the outlet point of the nervous spine, which causes temporary loss of tissue sensitivity.
As a rather efficient way to fight the disease, physiotherapy has established itself.See more in the General section of OsteoHondrosis
Well, of course, all theoretically physical education (LFK) is also in demand.Strengthens, relaxes and stabilizes the back muscles, improves blood circulation and metabolic processes.
But if none of the above methods were effective, then a neuropathologist can direct you to neurosurgene for the treatment of sacral osteochondrosis.And he will, in his inflict, confirm or deny the need for surgery.
Fact.Curious detail for avid drivers.How easier it is to stand driving in a car if it hurts back?Put the roller below base back.And be sure to install a headrest in the seat - such a precaution will protect yourself from injuries with sharp car braking.
Types of operations
At the world level, among professionals, microdiscothomy has earned universal recognition.This duration surgery takes about 20-30 minutes, is performed using general anesthesia.Microdisctomy is done under a neurosurgical surgical microscope.The surgeon removes hernia without touching the surrounding tissues, especially - without injuring nervous structures.You can walk the next day after surgery.And the operated exit from the hospital gets 2.: 3. Dan.
Different operation is the installation of special implants.The surgeon eliminates the damaged interverterbral disk and instead inserts sliding titanic implants.The patient lies in hospital for 3-4 days.He will be able to walk another day.
Question-answer:
I heard that severity must be tolerated somehow and raise so that she wouldn't hurt her spine.How exactly?
With independent transport of goods hold the body corrected.I put the load on the tors closer.If you raise something hard from the ground, don't bend forward, focus the load on your body.Sit down and lift the load because of the bend in your knees.
What are the stages of osteochondrose development?
1. Phase.Preclinical.The disk height is reduced.In the fibrous ring (an outer layer of intervertebral disk from the crisp fiber forms a crack. Lumbar muscles are starting to get tired quickly. You feel certain uneasiness in the back.
2. Phase.Violations of metabolic processes in the core (central part of the intervertebral disk, which consists of a gelative cartilage): its cells become dead or completely destroyed.Collagen structure (protein structure is based on the connective tissue) of the fibrous rings is also disturbed.Local pain, a person cannot be handled with the physical activity he had previously considered rather feasible.
3. Phase.Full destruction of fibrous rings.Neighboring spines stop being stable.Any unpleasant posing causes pain.Due to pushing the nerve roots that stand away from the spinal cord, the limbs can become less sensitive and mobile.
Fourth phase.The fabrics of the intervertebral disk are covered with scars, leading to the real estate of the affected joint of the spine.The description of the clinic depends on the individual physiology here.
Can pregnancy cause osteochondrose?
Yes, the embryo mass gradually increases and the focus of the fishing body shift, the lower back suffers from excessive load.In addition to this, metabolism changes;The body lacks minerals and vitamins.But during the fetus leg, most drugs and physiotherapy procedures are contraindicated.Therefore, follow the tops of the therapist and gynecologists.
