I. Reasons
1. Long-term incorrect sitting posture: Keeping the same posture for a long time, especially incorrect sitting posture, will lead to long-term tension of hip muscles. Over time, muscles will gradually become stiff and blood circulation will be blocked.
2. Lack of exercise: Sitting for a long time will lead to the gradual atrophy of hip muscles, and the muscles lacking exercise cannot support the weight of the body, which may easily lead to compression of the sciatic nerve.
3. Muscle fatigue: After working, studying or exercising for a long time, the hip muscles are easily tired, which will lead to poor blood circulation and aggravate the condition.
4. Obesity: Obese people increase the pressure of sciatica due to the accumulation of hip fat, which easily leads to sciatica.
5. Trauma: Trauma may lead to hip muscle and ligament damage, affect blood circulation and cause sciatica.
Second, symptoms
1. Hip pain: Patients will feel local pain in the buttocks, especially when sitting or lying down, and the pain will be aggravated when walking.
2. Compression of sciatic nerve: Compression of sciatic nerve is one of the main symptoms of "dead hip syndrome". Patients may have symptoms such as numbness, tingling and fatigue of lower limbs.
3. Muscle stiffness: The patient's hip muscles will become stiff and the activity will be limited.
4. Muscle atrophy: Long-term sedentary, hip muscles are prone to atrophy, affecting body function.
Third, preventive measures.
1. improve sitting posture: keep the correct sitting posture and avoid keeping the same posture for a long time. Auxiliary tools such as cushion and lumbar support can be used to reduce hip pressure.
2. Increase exercise: Take proper exercise regularly, such as walking, yoga, swimming, etc. , enhance hip muscle strength and promote blood circulation.
3. Pay attention to rest: After working and studying for a period of time, you should stand up and exercise in time to relieve hip muscle fatigue.
4. Weight control: maintain a healthy weight and avoid the pressure of obesity on the sciatic nerve.
5. Prevention of trauma: Pay attention to safety and avoid hip joint injury caused by trauma.
Fourth, the treatment measures
1. medication: over-the-counter anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs such as ibuprofen and indomethacin can be used to relieve pain. If the symptoms are serious, prescription drugs should be used under the guidance of a doctor.
2. Physical therapy: methods such as hot compress, cold compress and massage can relieve muscle pain and promote blood circulation.
3. Acupuncture treatment: Acupuncture can stimulate meridian points, adjust blood circulation and relieve pain.
4. Rehabilitation: Carry out rehabilitation training, such as stretching, relaxing, strengthening muscle strength and restoring normal function.
5. Surgical treatment: For patients who are ineffective in conservative treatment, surgical treatment can be performed under the advice of a doctor.
In a word, "dead hip syndrome" is a common hip joint disease, which is mainly related to factors such as incorrect sitting posture for a long time, lack of exercise, muscle fatigue and so on. The key to prevent and treat this disease is to maintain good living habits, strengthen exercise, rest in time and avoid sedentary. If you have related symptoms, you should seek medical advice in time to avoid delaying your illness.
