More and more low-headed people have shoulder-neck syndrome.
Modern people live in a tense state, especially ordinary office workers or computer people, who bow their heads to work or stare at the screen for a long time, and the popularity of smart phones makes the low-headed people prevail. Because of poor posture and lack of exercise, their muscles become stiff and sore for a long time, and even have symptoms such as migraine. When there are any symptoms such as stiffness, tightness, soreness, numbness and pain in the shoulder and neck, it can be called shoulder and neck syndrome.
With the popularity of smart phones, there are many shoulder and neck problems.
Chen, director of the rehabilitation department of Yangming Campus of Taipei United Hospital, said that the shoulder-neck syndrome is most common among low-headed people and computer people, and it is easy to be nervous, stressed or fixed in the same posture for a long time. Its characteristics include tender points and stiff neck muscles.
In the acute stage, we can use hot compress, ultrasonic treatment of pain points, muscle electrotherapy, muscle stretching (stretching muscles), deep muscle surgery, injection of pain points and other methods to treat muscles that can relieve pain and relax rigidity. After the acute phase, proper exercise can further relax the shoulder and neck muscles, and correct muscle strength training can increase the stability of the neck joints and avoid the recurrence of symptoms such as pain, tightness and numbness.
Good posture is very important to prevent shoulder and neck myopathy.
To prevent shoulder-neck syndrome, in daily life, we should maintain a good posture, avoid keeping the same posture for more than 30 minutes, exercise in time, do stretching exercises, exercise bones and relax muscles. If the symptoms are obvious, it is recommended to seek medical advice as soon as possible. Clinical treatment can be divided into:
? Drug therapy: nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs and muscle relaxants.
? Physical therapy: including hyperthermia, electrotherapy, neck traction and exercise therapy.
If the maintenance is not good on weekdays, the result will be too painful.
Dr. Chen said that if the symptoms of shoulder-neck syndrome appear numbness, weakness and atrophy of upper limbs or upper back, it is cervical hyperplasia or disc herniation that oppresses the cervical nerve root. Degenerative cervical spondylitis or cervical disc herniation is common in the elderly or dancers who oppress the neck for a long time, but the shoulder and neck symptoms of low-headed people and computer people may be further aggravated if they are not improved for a long time.
