The pathological changes in the articular cartilage, which lead to dystrophy of the cervical intervertebral discs, are called osteochondria.The disease occurs for a variety of reasons, it has symptoms similar to other diseases, is not always recognized and full of hidden risk for human health, so it takes sufficient prevention.
What is the dangerous cervical spine osteochondria?
The spine is support for the whole body and needs care.
It's not strange they say - the spine must be protected!
The part of the cervix is, on the one hand, the most mobile part of the spine.At the same time, it is quite vulnerable, undergoing a slight injury due to the inadequately developed cervix and the anatomical characteristics of the vertebrae structure.
- First, the cervical vertebrae differs in the structure.
- Secondly, the proximity of their position to each other determines the transport of nerves and blood vessels even in the case of a small vertebral relationship.
Both vessels, in particular, the vertebral arteries, and nerve fibers pass through the holes of the transverse vertebrals and are actively involved in the brain.Compression of blood vessels deprives the brain of blood supply and this can lead to severe brain disorders.
In addition, the deformity of nerve roots and vascular grid can cause spine displacement.In addition, as a rule, it protrudes back or sideways, which is full of the formation of a hernia.At this stage, the disc retains its integrity, but the danger is in the direction of the hernia inside the intervertebral.
In the next stage, degeneration affects the vertebral joints.Around them there are bone growths, which gradually cover the lumen of channels that exist between the vertebrae.
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 slightest protrusion of the disk is sufficient for compression.Vascular and nerve formations are compressed, the muscles in response to irritation are overly stretched, the pressure of the vertebrae is strengthened.
The procedures described lead to pathological ischemic consequences, as they suffer from the spinal cord and the brain that does not receive the necessary diet.
Why does the disease grow?
The previous attitude towards osteochondria, as an elderly disease with symptoms, while increasing age increasing, has been replaced today in another, relative at this time.The disease was clearly "younger".These days of doctors are aimed at doctors who characterize osteochondria, many young people aged 18-35 years, even children.
The universal computerization and wide driving of the car help to replenish the classes of patients suffering from cervical osteochondria.
Among the many causes of the disease, the main
- Insufficient physical training, especially with the underdevelopment of the bone muscle system.
- Sowrate, living room (long -term sitting behind the steering wheel or on the screen, TV) lifestyle.
- Hereditary factor.
- Violation of attitude, including flat legs.
- Excessive body weight.
- The curvature of the spine, including damage as a result of fractures or bruises.
- A long stay of a person in anxiety.
- Poor Ecology.
- Hypothermia, as well as infectious lesions.
- Disadvantage in vitamin diet, trace elements.
- Lack of fluid in the body.
- Wearing a heavy load.
- Long stay in an uncomfortable position when there is a load on the cervical spine (including sleep in a "wrong" pillow).
- Inner volatility of vertebrates.
Located factors lead to the fact that a person begins to problems with the throat, as rooser syndrome develops.Due to the degenerative changes that take place in the body, the intervertebral cartilage tissue loses its native elasticity, physiological normal size and shape.
A person begins to experience headache, neck pain, dizziness, flickering in the eyes of "flies", ears in the ears and many other symptoms, when you should urgently consult a doctor to create an accurate diagnosis!
Prevention
Prevention of cervical osteochondryosis consists of the competent organization of the workplace and the entire working process, observing proper nutrition, swimming, yoga, performing simple fitness and massage, night rest on the pillow.
- Swimming and yogaIt is an excellent prevention of cervical spine osteochondry.You can join them alone or under the supervision of an experienced coach.
- NutritionIt should be made up in such a way that fruits, vegetables, sufficient amount of pure drinking water, vitamin rich products, calcium and magnesium daily.You should not abuse greasy, salty, smoked, alcohol, tobacco.It is recommended to exclude products that contribute to the appearance of overweight, edema, and those that have been wrongly removed from the body.
- The method of implementing any work must be organized in such a way as to cease five minutes every 45-60 minutes, filling them with natural and respiratory exercises.
- During the natural hot, you must definitely move, move, tilt the head forward, convert it to the sides, up and down.
The circular rotational movements of the throat are not recommended!They can lead to throat injury!
It is also recommended to draw the spine.The exercise is convenient for execution or at the back, extends with the effort of the hands and feet in the opposite directions, so that the whole body, along with the spine, extends to length.
Occupations and diversion are also useful.
You should choose simple exercises and perform them according to age and in the best possible way, without overwhelming!
The purpose of the gym is to relax the throat muscles, shoulders, removing excessive muscle intensity, which occurs with a long -term monotonous position of the case, as well as strengthening cervical fiber corsel.In this case, vertebrae mobility and blood circulation of the whole area improve.
Gym should be done regularly, each exercise must be done 5-8 times, observing its own senses.
When performing a physical education complex, there should be no pain!
- Massage of the nearby plate or the plains of the belt can be executed or seek help from an masseur.
- For a high quality, which does not injure the neck of night sleep or light of the day, an orthopedic pillow is recommended in anatomically correct form, helping to relax the muscles of the head and neck.A stylish pillow protects nerves and blood vessels.
Prevention of cervical osteochondry is important to students, school age adolescents and for everyone on the computer for a long time, on the table or on the machine in a sitting position!
If you have children, it is very important from early childhood to monitor the correctness of their attitude and adapt it to the slightest violations or curvature.This is also an effective prevention of cervical osteochondicism.
