Pathological changes in articulated cartilage, leading to the dystrophy of the intervertebral disc discs of the cervical region, are called osteochondrose.The disease occurs for various reasons, has symptoms similar to other diseases, is not always recognized and left by hidden danger to human health, so it needs competent prevention.
What is the dangerous osteochondrose of the neck of the spine?
Spinal column is support for the whole body and needs care.
No wonder they say - the spine must be protected!
The cervical department is, on the one hand, the most desired part of the spine.At the same time, it is quite vulnerable, subject to light injuries due to poorly developed cervical cervix and the anatomical characteristics of the structure of the vertebrae.
- First, cervical spines differ in the structure.
- Second, the proximity of their location to another determines the transmission of nerves and blood vessels even in the event of a mild relevant vertebrae.
And vessels, especially, vertebrate arteries, and nerve fibers pass through the holes of the transverse vertebrates and actively participate in the Inervation brain.Solid blood vessels deprives the brain of blood supply, and this can lead to severe brain disorders.
In addition, the deformation of nerve roots and vascular plexus can cause a spinal disk shift.Moreover, he, as a rule, protrudes returns or aside, which is full of kile formation.At this stage, the disc retains its integrity, but the danger is located in the direction of hernia within the intervertebral channel.
In the next phase degeneration affects vertebrates.There are bone growth around them, which gradually cover the lumen channel that exist between vertebral.
It should be borne in mind that the channels of the cervical area are much narrower, due to the anatomical structure than in other parts of the spine.Therefore, the smallest disk protuberance is enough for the look of compression.Vascular and nervous formations are printed, the muscles in response to irritation are excessively swollen, the pressure of the vertebral is improved.
The described processes lead to pathological ischemic consequences, because the spine and the brain suffering not receiving the necessary nutrition.
Why does the disease develop?
Previous attitude towards osteochondrosis, as an older disease with symptoms, parallel increase with age increases, is replaced today, relevant to the present time.The disease was clearly "younger."These doctors' days are referred to doctors characteristic of osteochondrose, quite young ages 18 and 30-35 years, and even children.
Universal computerization and widespread car ride help completely recharge the rows of patients suffering from cervical osteochondrose.
Among many causes of disease, major
- Insufficient physical training, especially with the underdevelopence of the muscle system bones.
- Moisture, sitting (long-berm sitting behind the steering wheel or on the monitor, TV) of the lifestyle.
- Hereditary factor.
- Violation of position, including due to straight feet.
- Excessive body weight.
- The curvature of the spine, including injury as a result of fractures or bruises.
- A long stay of a person in a state of stress.
- Bad ecology.
- Hypothermia, as well as contagious lesions.
- Lack in the diet of vitamins, trace elements.
- Lack of liquid in the body.
- Carrying a heavy burden.
- Long stay in a forced unpleasant position, when there is a load on the thunderstairs (including while sleeping on a "wrong" pillow).
- Inborn instability of vertebrate.
These factors lead to the fact that a person begins with neck problems, because Rooser syndrome develops.Due to degenerative changes that take place in the body, the tissue of intervertebral disks loses its associated elasticity, physiological normal size and shape.
The person begins to experience a headache, neck pain, dizziness, flashing in the eyes of "flies," ears in the ears and many other symptoms, when you should consult a doctor to establish a correct diagnosis!
Prevention
Prevention of cervical osteochondrosis consists in the competent organization of the workplace and the entire work process, by observing the correct nutrition, swimming, yoga, performing simple gymnastic exercises and massages, a night's sleeping pillow that repeat the physiological bandage door.
- Swimming and Yogaare excellent prevention of osteochondrose of the cervical spine.You can deal with or under the supervision of an experienced coach.
- A groomed dietIt should be compiled in such a way that fruits, vegetables, sufficient amount of clean drinking water, produces rich in vitamins, calcium and magnesium daily.You should not abuse oily, salty, smoked, alcohol, tobacco -date.The exclusion of the product that contributes to the appearance of excess kilograms, edema, as well as those who are poorly removed from the body.
- The manner of implementation of any work should be organized in such a way that five minutes pauses every 45-60 minutes, fill them with physical and breathing exercises.
- During physical heating, you must be moved, move, move the head slope forward, turn it on the bake, up and down.
Circular rotary movements do not recommend!They can lead to neck injuries!
It is also recommended for the drawing of the spine.Exercise is suitable for work or lying on your back, stretching with hand and leg efforts in opposite directions so that the whole body, along with vertebra, length.
Squats and a refuge are also useful.
You should choose simple exercises and perform them according to age and the best of your strength, without irresistible!
The goal of the gymnastics is to relax the neck, shoulders, removing excessive muscle tension, which occurs with a long-term monotonous case case, as well as strengthening the corset of the cervical fiber.In this case, the mobility of vertebral and circulation of blood entire collar area is improving.
Gymnastics should be done regularly, each exercise should be done 5-8 times, observing their own sensations.
When performing the physical education complex, it should not be pain!
- Massage closer to or perused zone can be performed or seeking a help from the masseur.
- For high quality, it does not injure the neck of the night sleep or daylight, an orthopedic pillow with anatomically correct shape, contribution to the relaxation of the head and neck muscles, it is recommended.A good pillow protects nerves and blood vessels.
The prevention of cervical osteochondrosis is relevant for students, for school adolescents and for all who have been on a computer for a long time, at a table or machine in a seated position!
If you have children, it is very important than early childhood to monitor the correctness of your posture and adapt it with the smallest violations or curvature.It is also efficient to prevent cervical osteochondrose.
