My joints ache when it's hot.

As we all know, the symptoms of osteopathy patients have a great relationship with the weather.

Because of this, many patients have no obvious pain when the weather is hot, so they don't want to be treated, just like they are not sick. However, when the weather is cold, the problem of joint pain comes. When some patients have osteopathy, their condition is more serious than before and the pain is unbearable.

Due to the hot weather in summer, the blood circulation is accelerated, the joint ligament muscles become stretched, the nerve resuscitation becomes active, and the symptoms such as neck pain, stiffness and pain are often alleviated or even disappeared. Many patients feel that the symptoms are alleviated or disappeared accordingly, and they often neglect health care and treatment.

Chinese medicine believes that summer is the best time to treat neck, shoulder, back and leg pain and osteoarthrosis.

High temperature accelerates blood circulation, which is conducive to taking away local "garbage", and is more conducive to dredging blood stasis and eliminating edema and inflammation. The stretching of joints, ligaments and muscles is beneficial to the recovery of nucleus pulposus of intervertebral disc and the repair of articular cartilage injury; Nerve resuscitation becomes active, which is beneficial to the elimination of pain and numbness. These factors can get twice the result with half the effort.

Therefore, we suggest that the treatment of patients with neck, waist and joint diseases should be "hot".

Traditional Chinese medicine believes that winter is yin and summer is yang. Summer is the season when yang flourishes and yin declines, and it is also the time when the human body is full of yang. At this time, taking advantage of the characteristics of strong and rising yang in summer, the yang of the human body often rises more and more vigorously in summer, and the cold in the body is easily resolved. Using drugs that tonify deficiency and help yang or warm the interior and dispel cold is the easiest way to eliminate the evil of winter disease in dormant state.

Neck, shoulder, back and leg pain, osteoarthrosis and other diseases belong to the category of "bone arthralgia" in traditional Chinese medicine.

Su Wen's theory of arthralgia in Huangdi Neijing says: "Wind, cold and dampness are mixed, and they are combined into arthralgia", and "The so-called arthralgia is also caused by wind, cold and dampness". "Jing Yue Quan Shu" also said: "Joint pain is blocked by the evil of qi and blood" and "it hurts to be blocked".

The internal causes of this disease are weakness and lack of yang.

Exogenous pathogens take advantage of the situation and make muscles, joints and meridians impassable, which is an external cause.

Internal and external factors cause diseases due to interaction, so strengthening physique, caring for healthy qi, eliminating and preventing the invasion of external pathogens are the key to prevent and treat this disease.

It's hot every day in summer, and the human body has diarrhea. In this season, external medication for patients with knee osteoarthritis is beneficial to the transdermal absorption of drugs and enhance the therapeutic effect. It can better regulate the function of human viscera, promote the circulation of qi and blood, improve physical fitness, and eliminate wind, cold, dampness and heat, so as to achieve the purpose of treatment.

In my studio, for bone and joint diseases, the main treatment methods are bamboo pot spinal therapy, acupoint application with external medicine, acupoint acupuncture, moxibustion conditioning and medicated bath treatment. Internal adjustment is mainly based on the patient's condition, combined with oral Chinese medicine for physical conditioning.

These methods can be reasonably selected according to the patient's condition. Specific treatment also needs to confirm the patient's physical symptoms after consultation by hospital doctors, and then carry out symptomatic treatment after syndrome differentiation.

The treatment of osteopathy is not only through drug conditioning, but also includes the daily diet and health care of osteopathy patients. Today, I mainly talk about how to recuperate patients with bone diseases in summer.

Don't be greedy in summer.

Not gluttony in summer is the root to prevent all kinds of joint pain.

To prevent colds and colds, keep your joints warm, blow less air conditioning in summer, and the room temperature should not be too low. Generally, the room temperature should be kept at 26. Don't blow the fan and air conditioner for a long time, and don't take a bath to avoid the invasion of cold in summer and joint pain.

Proper exercise is essential.

It is necessary to do joint exercise without load, reduce the pressure on joints, strengthen the strength of muscles around joints and increase the protective function of joints.

You should choose swimming, cycling, walking on a level road, playing Tai Ji Chuan, joint exercises and other exercise methods, and don't do strenuous exercise such as long-distance running, ball games and mountain climbing; Pay attention to changing posture frequently to avoid sedentary and standing for a long time; Avoid long-term stress state of joints; Reduce going up and down stairs, up and down slopes, and avoid repeated squats.

Obese joints have to bear the weight of the body, which will accelerate the wear of soft tissue between joints and make joints degenerate prematurely, so obese people should pay attention to losing weight.

Pay attention to diet and recuperation.

Traditional Chinese medicine has the saying that "suffering through the summer". Although bitter food can stay away from the troubles of getting angry, it doesn't mean that everyone can "suffer". For people with osteopathy, we should try to eat less bitter food.

In the view of Chinese medicine, bitterness belongs to yin, so does bone, and qi enters with it. Therefore, suffering from bone leads to more yin, which is characterized by heavy bones and inconvenient movement, which aggravates the condition.

How should osteopathy patients eat in diet?

After the age of 35, human bone mass began to lose. Early prevention and correct response can effectively delay bone loss and inhibit osteoporosis. Calcium and other trace elements needed in the body can be supplemented through daily diet, which plays a multiplier role in preventing osteoporosis.

Patients with rheumatoid arthritis suffer from chronic consumption for a long time, and often have symptoms such as muscle atrophy and anemia due to fever at the bottom, vitamin deficiency in protein and osteoporosis.

Therefore, the intake of high-quality protein, high-vitamin food and calcium should be increased.

Common ingredients include dried seaweed, black sesame, milk, soybeans and tofu. They are all foods with high calcium content and rich protein, so you can eat more appropriately;

You can eat more sulfur-containing foods, such as asparagus, eggs, garlic, onions, cabbage and so on. Because the repair and reconstruction of bones, cartilage and connective tissue should take sulfur as raw material, and sulfur also contributes to the absorption of calcium;

You should eat more foods containing calcium and zinc, such as raisins, sesame seeds, pine nuts, walnuts, pork liver, ribs and other foods.

Eating more foods containing histidine, such as rice, wheat, rye, etc., is conducive to removing excess metals from the body;

It is forbidden to take multivitamins containing iron, because iron is related to pain, swelling and joint injury;

Alkaloids in Solanum vegetables, such as tomatoes, potatoes, eggplant, peppers and tobacco, can aggravate arthritis symptoms and should be eaten less;

Don't eat high fat, high sugar and seafood. According to relevant data, all three kinds of food will lead to the aggravation of arthritis.

For bone and joint diseases, I suggest that you don't blindly choose surgical treatment. Can be treated conservatively with traditional Chinese medicine. Traditional Chinese medicine has been deposited for more than 5 thousand years, and there are many conservative treatments. Don't be discouraged, don't give up!
