Osteochondrosis of the spine is one of the most common diseases.Osteochondrosis occurs with increased load on the spine and in people with a sedentary lifestyle (office workers who sit at the computer for a long time).
In the morning, you feel stiffness in your back, limited movement in some part of your spine.These may be the first symptoms of an insidious disease that has become much younger in recent years - osteochondrosis of the spine.
The disease can last a long time without external manifestations.
The first signs of imbalance that require medical attention are:
- back muscle tension
- backache,
- periodic restriction of movement in the neck, chest or lumbar regions,
- feeling of stiffness in the back in the morning, which goes away after warming up.
In the spine, degenerative-dystrophic changes occur in the cartilages and joints, which leads to disc deformation;arthrosis develops in the intervertebral joints.Treatment should be started at an early stage of the disease.
Methods for diagnosing osteochondrosis include X-ray diagnostics and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the spine.
7 complex procedures for the treatment and prevention of osteochondrosis
Therapeutic practice
Special attention is paid to exercises for the muscles of the neck and back.In patients with osteochondrosis, physical therapy (physiotherapy) is carried out in the way of relieving the burden on the joints - lying down, sitting, with isometric exercises, in which the muscles, although tense, do not change for a long time, and there is no movement in the joints.
Traction of spine
Traction is used to eliminate back pain, it helps:
- stretching crampy muscles,
- relief of intervertebral discs,
- increased diastasis between the articular surfaces of the intervertebral joints,
- relief from spinal nerve compression.
As a result of the application of this procedure, the pathological processes occurring in the spine weaken, and active improvement of the damaged functions begins in the affected parts of the spine.
