How is backache when the weather changes?

1 There may be lumbar disc herniation. After the degenerative changes in different parts of the lumbar intervertebral disc, especially the nucleus pulposus, under the action of external factors, the fibrous ring of the intervertebral disc ruptures, and the nucleus pulposus tissue protrudes from the rupture, which will cause low back pain when compressing the adjacent spinal nerve roots. And this kind of pain will get worse when the weather gets cold and the waist gets cold.

How to rest in bed? You can wear waist protection equipment for traction therapy. Pelvic traction can increase the width of intervertebral space, reduce the internal pressure of intervertebral disc and reduce the stimulation and compression of nerve roots. Need the guidance of a professional doctor. In addition, physical therapy, massage and massage can relieve muscle spasm and reduce the pressure in the intervertebral disc, but it should be noted that intense massage will lead to aggravation of the disease and should be cautious.

It may be that the lumbar muscles are overworked, such as bending over for a long time or staying in a fixed position for a long time, which causes the muscles, fascia and ligaments to continue to pull, which increases the pressure in the muscles, hinders the blood supply, and the energy consumed by muscle fibers during contraction is not replenished, resulting in a large amount of lactic acid, and the metabolites are not removed in time, which may cause inflammation and adhesion. This repetition will lead to long-term degeneration, thickening and contracture of tissues, and stimulate corresponding nerves to cause chronic low back pain.

When the weather turns cold and is attacked by pathogenic wind, cold and dampness, it can hinder local blood circulation, promote and accelerate the tension and spasm of lumbosacral muscles, fascia and ligaments, thus aggravating low back pain. Therefore, low back pain will be more obvious when the weather changes.

How to avoid overwork at ordinary times, pay attention to correct bad posture, and at the same time carry out appropriate back muscle exercise to prevent muscle tension imbalance, take a prone position, remove the pillow, then hold your head up and chest out, and put your hands and feet into the air; You can also lie on your back, remove the pillow, push your head back against the bed and lift your shoulders. Can be combined with physical therapy, massage, massage and other treatment methods to relax muscles and promote blood circulation.

3 It may be that people with kidney deficiency, lumbago and kidney deficiency often have dull pain in the waist, weakness and fatigue, and the pain will be more obvious when the waist is cold. Moreover, low back pain caused by kidney deficiency is often accompanied by tepid limbs and chills.

What should we do? Eat more lotus roots, lotus seeds, lilies, medlar, fungus, grapes, mulberries, red dates, black beans and other foods to tonify the kidney.

Dietary recommendation

Taxilli 15g, Mulberry Branch 50g, Coicis Semen 30g, Japonica rice 30g. First, the mistletoe and the mulberry branches are boiled for 30 minutes to get juice, and then the water and the medicinal juice are added with Coicis Semen and japonica rice to make porridge.

4 How to do low back pain 1, get up early to exercise your waist. After getting up every morning, you should first exercise your waist. You can lean your back against a tree or other places where you can lean, and gently lean for a few minutes, which can effectively stimulate the lumbar nerves and make you feel very comfortable.

In the afternoon, you can do exercises to contract abdominal muscles and stretch waist muscles, and you can also walk, walk backwards and ride a bike, all of which can prevent and relieve low back pain.

2, massage relief ① Two fingers press and knead

Hands akimbo, thumb and abdomen massage pain points, Shenshu points, Zhongwan points of lower limbs, Chengshan points, etc. It is correct to have a local ache for 2 minutes at a time.

② plucking method

Move the sacrospinous muscle and supraspinous ligament of the waist repeatedly from top to bottom with the thumb pulp for about 3 minutes.

③ Palm pressing and kneading method

Press and knead the muscles on both sides of the waist with both hands and palms for about 3 ~ 5 minutes.

④ Push method

Taking heat penetration as the degree, directly push the Du meridian in the middle of the waist and the bladder meridian of the foot sun on both sides from top to bottom with the thumb pulp and palm respectively.

In addition to the above methods to relieve low back pain, we should also pay attention to physical exercise, moderate activities, and go outdoors to bask in the sun.

3, physical flexibility exercise Physical flexibility exercise is also very important, because the body is too stiff, and it is easy to damage the waist when working and exercising. You can often do some exercises to enhance flexibility, such as yoga and Tai Ji Chuan.

4. Exercise the lumbar muscles, clench fists with both hands and beat the waist 300 times with moderate intensity every day, so that the lumbar muscles can relieve tension and relieve pain. Also, during the period when the back is not painful, keep exercising the waist muscles every day, such as sit-ups and upturned backs.

Pay attention to step by step. At first, I did 20 sit-ups every day, and 20 leaned back (lying in bed with my head in my hands and my upper body leaning hard), and gradually increased the number of times. This can stretch the lumbar muscles and promote the blood circulation of local muscles.

5, leg exercise Good leg exercise is extremely important for patients with low back pain. Regular leg exercises, such as proper running, squatting and standing up, can enhance leg strength. Legs with sufficient strength can share the burden of low back and effectively relieve the symptoms of low back pain.

6. Avoid acute lumbar muscle injury, such as falling from a height, slipping on the ground, traffic accidents, sleeping on the concrete floor for a long time, etc. In addition, you can't suddenly increase the spinal load without preparation, otherwise it will easily cause waist injury and ligament tear, and even fracture in severe cases.

7. Avoid cold, dampness and warmth, especially for women with low back pain. Be sure to keep warm, especially in the cold and humid season of winter and spring. Try to avoid catching cold in the rain, lying in the wind at night, lying in a wet place for a long time, etc.

8, adjust eating habits The diet of patients with low back pain is generally not much different from that of ordinary people. But to avoid excessive consumption of cold and wet food, even in summer, it is not advisable to drink more frozen drinks.

For cold fruits, such as watermelon, persimmon, banana, grapefruit and so on. It is not advisable to eat too much at a time.

We should also avoid obesity and eat less high-calorie and high-fat foods. Because obesity will bring excessive load to the spine, and at the same time, due to the relaxation of abdominal muscles, it can not support the spine, which will force the spine to deform.
