I came back from a trip with back pain and neck pain. Sedentary has always been a "killer" of health. In addition to office workers, drivers are also the most prone to cervical spondylosis. This is because when driving, the head and neck are often in a state of tension. Keeping this state for a long time is easy to cause neck muscle fatigue. Especially when the car just started, the body has been in a state of vibration. At this time, the pressure in the intervertebral disc is the highest, and the bending pressure is greater than that in the straight sitting, which is easy to cause cervical spondylosis. Bad driving can also put a lot of pressure on leg joints and waist.
Some small habits when driving:
(1) Move the seat to the steering wheel appropriately, and keep the steering wheel as close to the chest as possible without affecting the steering. At the same time, the reclining angle should be 100 degrees to avoid excessive reclining, and the height between the seat and the steering wheel should be adjusted. If the seat is too low, your shoulders will feel upturned. If it is too high, it is easy to overstretch the lumbar spine, increase the lumbar load and induce lumbar disc herniation.
(2) Try to avoid driving continuously for more than 1 hour. When you need to drive for a long time, you should stop for 5 ~ 10 minutes, get out of the cab, do some exercise outside and do some waist exercises. In order to prevent neck fatigue, you can also do some neck exercises at the same time, which can largely avoid or alleviate neck low back pain caused by neck and waist fatigue.
(3) For car drivers, they sit for a long time and have less activities. The most important measure to prevent low back pain is to strengthen self-protection, that is, to strengthen the functional exercise of neck and waist muscles, to exercise neck, waist and back muscles regularly or at rest every day, and to participate in swimming and other sports.
Before driving for a long time, you can also make preparations in advance to protect your body and bones. Not only have good driving habits and correct posture, but also use our "crocodile bone protection combination". Spraying before departure can effectively relieve physical fatigue, and sticking pain-relieving stickers during rest time can effectively relieve physical fatigue and back pain.
