In today's society, with the increasing pressure of study and work, as well as changes in life and entertainment, such as reading, writing, working and using computers. Sitting at a desk for a long time will put a great burden on the whole spine and lead to premature degeneration. This is also the reason why cervical and lumbar diseases are frequent and tend to be younger. According to the statistics of relevant staff, cervical and lumbar spondylosis has quietly entered the campus because of the large amount of students' study.
As a clinician, when accepting patients, patients often ask, "I haven't done any hard work, why does my lumbar vertebra (cervical vertebra) hurt?" "Many people think that these spinal diseases are related to work, but this idea is not correct.
Let's give a few examples, such as car drivers, tailors, white-collar workers in companies, and people who often use computers. These people sit on their limbs without great strength, but they are high-risk groups of cervical and lumbar spondylosis! These people generally have some spinal problems with different degrees of severity. Hard-working people will have acute lumbar injury, but there are few chronic cervical and lumbar strain.
It can be seen that the occurrence of spinal diseases is not necessarily related to heavy physical labor. On the contrary, posture that is complementary to posture, such as sitting for a long time, produces static and lasting' chronic traction' on the muscle ligaments around the spine, especially the cervical and lumbar vertebrae tend to bend forward, contrary to the physiological curvature of the cervical and lumbar vertebrae themselves, and the local flexors are always in a state of contraction, which is easy to strain and degenerate, and finally related symptoms appear.
At present, many clinicians only pay attention to the treatment of cervical and lumbar diseases, but not to the daily maintenance and prevention of recurrence in the later period. This is the reason why people often say that "diseases cannot be cured", because the pathogenic factors of these diseases have not been removed and there is no maintenance in the later stage of treatment, so the phenomenon of "diseases cannot be cured" will appear. Spinal medicine requires not only advocating acute treatment, but also paying attention to daily maintenance and prevention after spinal treatment. Only when treatment and maintenance are carried out at the same time can the curative effect be increased and maintained, and spinal diseases can be recovered for a long time.
