Scientific exercise can prevent cervical spondylosis and prevent lumbar disc herniation as early as possible

　　In recent years, the incidence rate of cervical spondylosis has shown an upward trend. What causes cervical spondylosis? How to prevent it? Listen to the experts.

　　Zhou Feifei, chief orthopedic physician of Peking University Third Hospital: The incidence rate of cervical spondylosis in our country is about 15%. In addition to the fact that cervical spondylosis in the elderly is indeed a rising trend, youth is another very obvious feature of cervical spondylosis.

　　Experts said that the incidence of cervical spondylosis in China has been on the rise as the average time of using smartphones has become longer and longer. Once the cervical intervertebral disc is under high pressure for a long time, it will accelerate aging, and even the disc will protrude and grow spurs, which will compress the spinal cord and nerves.

　　Zhou Feifei, chief orthopedic physician of the Third Hospital of Peking University: Occupation is directly related to the incidence of cervical spondylosis. For teachers and IT workers who work at desks for a long time, it is very bad for cervical spondylosis. For example, some people sleep with very high pillows, and some people do not sleep with pillows. They lean against the back of the sofa and brush their mobile phones. These poor living positions are also an important reason for the high incidence of cervical spondylosis.

　　Experts said that in order to reduce the pressure on the cervical vertebra, it is recommended to slightly retract the chin when looking at the mobile phone, put the mobile phone screen at the same place as the line of sight, and avoid using the mobile phone for a long time. When using the computer, the desks and chairs should be adjusted to the appropriate height and the correct sitting posture should be maintained.

　　Li Weishi, chief orthopedic physician of the Third Hospital of Peking University, said that we must strengthen the exercise of back muscles. For example, swimming is a very good exercise, and "Xiaoyanfei", which everyone is familiar with. The patient lies prone on the bed, and then (limbs) tilt their heads, which will have a good exercise effect on the muscles of the cervical spine, waist and back. Generally, "Xiaoyanfei" will be lifted for 10 seconds, then put down, and repeat a total of 20 times.

　　In addition, the doctor told the reporter that there is also a kind of common spinal diseases in clinic, mainly degenerative diseases, including lumbar disc herniation.

　　Mr. Li, who lives in Beijing, is 47 years old. He told the reporter that he had been suffering from lumbago for more than three months, and with numbness in his left leg, he had difficulty walking. After the doctor's inspection, it was diagnosed as lumbar disc herniation.

　　Mr. Li, a Beijing citizen: More than a year ago, I moved a heavy object, which seemed to stretch (my waist). In recent months, I have had a severe (back pain).

　　Li Weishi, Chief Physician of Orthopedics Department of Peking University Third Hospital: From the film, he has obvious disc herniation and spinal canal stenosis in the third and fourth (lumbar vertebrae) segments. Nerve compression is also obvious. In addition, he works as a driver. He sits for a long time, plus some repeated injuries, it is easy to lead to disc herniation.

　　Experts said that lumbar disc herniation is a typical spinal disease. The common causes are aging and chronic injuries of the lumbar spine. Therefore, the focus of prevention is to reduce cumulative injuries. Especially for white-collar workers, drivers and other people who need to sit for a long time, it is better to keep a good sitting posture at ordinary times, and pay attention not to sleep in too soft beds.

　　Li Weishi, chief orthopedic physician of the Third Hospital of Peking University: For example, 80% of the patients with lumbar disc herniation can be treated conservatively. They can rest in bed and exercise muscles. At the same time, there are also some drug treatments, such as neurotrophic, anti-inflammatory, pain relieving, blood activating and stasis removing. Many patients' symptoms can be well controlled, including traction and massage.
