The localization of metabolic disorders and the decay of glycoproteins in the lumbar intervertebral discs, the bodies of the vertebrae, their articular surfaces and leagues can be found in 90% of the cases of all pathological changes in the spinal column with the general name of osteochondrosis.For this reason, there have been questions about the osteochondrosis of the lumbar spine - symptoms and treatment at home, about everyone else in connection with this pathology.
What signs can you determine regardless of the beginning of the development of an irreversible illness and in which methods can you stop your further development?
Signs of osteochondrosis in the lower back
The progress of the pathology of osteochondrosis is in 4 stadiums
- Osteochondrosis-Degenerative-dystrophic changes in the ring panels and a change in the configuration of the jacker within the intervertebral disc.
- Shoe feeling of the lumbar cone region-Zessive lead of fiber caves ring -shaped plates and the beginning of the destruction of the membrane of the pulp core.
- hernia- Break of the fiber ring and the output of the gel -like core mass outside the disc.
- Osteophytes- narrowing of the natural lumen between the vertebrae, the spread of the pathological process to the bone tissue of the vertebrae, its joints, ligaments and the periartic muscles.
Information.It can precisely determine the degree of development of osteochondrosis and the spinal column - to make a diagnosis, only a doctor can be based on an analysis of the anamnesis and images of CT and MRI examinations.
The symptoms of osteochondrosis of the lumbar spine, which manifested in the first stage, can be as follows:
- Discomfort of the lower back;
- increased sweating;
- a decrease in the sensitivity of the skin in the lower back, on the hips, buttocks, in the foot and/or in the lower leg;
- Cramps of the arteries of the lower extremities, which leads to the feeling of croup in them, tingling and "running goosebumps";
- Peel the skin on the lower extremities.
The price, the people who ignore these main characteristics - are paid - the development of projections, hernia and osteophytes.They not only disturb normal life, but also threaten disabilities.
Osteochondrosis of the lumbar region - pain symptoms
When the pain often puts the pain at hand with cervix and chest osteochondrosis,
This pain with lumbar osteochondrosis radiates one less frequently into both legs.
Acute lumbargia
Sharp, unbearable, in most cases bilateral pain and obvious muscle contracture in the lower back.Attacks can be repeated several times a year.
Chronic lumbargia
The occurrence of several weeks (months), blunt and painful pain, mostly on one side of the back, on the level and below the waist.Pain syndrome occurs in an unpleasant pose or after a long -term fixation of the hotel.
The beginning of the movement after a long stop or sharp tendencies (curves, twisting) increases the pain.In repeated fights, the localization of pain gradually extends to the sacral section, the buttocks and the leg.
Vasopastic reflexdystonia
The pain in the lower back and in the leg is accompanied by a cold in the lower part of the limb.After physical stress, hypothermia can disappear and intensify.
Vasodilatatorratorra lexdyst
Pain syndrome takes place with the development of heat in the limbs.During and after physical activity, the hypertherm's hypertherm is very strong.
Radiculite and radiculopathy - radicular syndrome
Characteristic of edema, shooting -fast pain and accommodation in the lumbar industry and the radiation of pain in the leg are characteristic.
Your manifestation depends on the location and the degree of damage to the intervertebral discs:
- L1: L2 - The front and inside of the thigh hurts;
- L2: L3 - radiation in the upper thigh and in the inner area of the lower leg, the absence or decrease in reflexes in the knee joints is possible to develop scoliosis in the homolateral type;
- L3: L4 - The pain in the lower back is free, while it spreads along the thigh at the front and inside to the knee and is a little deeper, an increased knee reflex occurs, and the knee itself is moderately injured;
- L4: L5 - Sharp, Shooting Pain in the Lumbar Region Cause Its Stable Fixation of the PatloGical Configuration and Skewing of Posture in the Form of “Protective Poses”, The Spasm of the Pear -Shapedm Muscle During the Sorness During the Thigh and Causes the Symptoms Characteristic of Inflammation of theSciatic Nerve: The Pain in the Foot And In The Foot, The Muscle Tone Is Reduced in The Foot And In The Foot The Buttocks and limbs, the power of the Achilles of the tendon is weakened, the thumb is poorly extended and the development of intermittent chroma is possible.
Lumba ilgia and radicuicemia
The main symptoms of osteochondrosis of the lumbosacral vertebrae-L5: S1, which are inherent in the III stage of the pathological flow:
- Discogenic pain from the lower back radiates through the type of pain syndrome into one or both legs and a decrease in reflexes that damage L4: L5;
- Pressing the arteries leads to a loss of skin sensitivity.
- the simultaneous manifestation of muscle tonic, neurotrophic and vegetative-vascular syndromes;
- The prolapse of the disc causes the development of the "ponytail" syndrome - the unbearably acute pain syndrome in the lower back is accompanied by deafness of the groin area and a violation of the work of the large intestine and organs in the pelvis to incontinence in the urine.
- Functional disturbance of the gastrointestinal tract, liver and worsening of chronic diseases, such as colitis, hemorrhoids.
Attention!There are quite a few tips from the healers who are convinced that osteochondrosis is the deposit of salts on the spine, and folk medication can be resolved and removing them out of the body without trace.Since osteochondrosis has a different development mechanism and electricity, each of these instructions is 100%to get rid of osteochondrosis, a charlatan that can affect the health of tangible damage.
Treatment of osteochondrosis of the lower back
For the prevention of osteochondrosis with sedentary work, it is necessary to carry out 10 -minute "unloading" skating flows, one complex of which must be carried out once an hour.
The therapy of lumbar osteochondrosis is always carried out in the complex, but also depends on the stage of development of the disease:
| Treatment methods | The degree of osteochondrosis | ||
| I | II | III-IV | |
| Surgical intervention | - - | - - | + |
| Anesthetics | + | + | + |
| Non -steroidal anti -inflammatory medication | - - | partially | + |
| Hormone medications and antidepressants | - - | - - | + |
| Chondroprotectors | Efficiency is not proven | ||
| Vitamin therapy (Group B) | + | Non -effective | |
| massage | + | + | + |
| Manual therapy | + | partially | - - |
| Swimming, hiking + | + | + | |
| Run cowardice and jump exercises | partially | - - | - - |
| Dynamic gymnastics exercises | + | + | partially |
| Static yoga exercises | + | + | + |
| Classes over simulators with weighting | + | partially | - - |
Important!An unavailable part of the treatment of osteochondrosis in every stage is normalization and strict compliance with the alcohol regime of 1.5-2 l pure water per day and the optimization of the diet to reduce body weight and further maintain the body of the body, which is calculated by the wording (kg) (m).
Modern medicine has not developed medicine that would heal osteochondrosis.If you find the first symptoms of osteochondrosis, you don't lose any valuable time - you move more and eat it properly!Today these are the only effective measures that can slow down or stop the progression of the disease.
The daily practice of two simple yoga positions even helps to stop the pathological processes that develop in the lower back.Since these "magical" exercises are simple and are carried out static enough to look at the photo.
The rod must be kept from 10 to 15 seconds, whereby the time is gradually increased to 3 minutes without forgetting rhythmic breathing: breathe in with the nose, breathe in through the lips folded with a tube.
During this twisting of Marichiasan, which lasted 15 seconds to 1.5 minutes, it is carried out in every direction, and it is necessary to make light alcohol of the spine to insert the vertebrae to the place without using the services of a manual therapist.
Osteochondrosis of the spine is inevitable, since even in the absence of aggravating causes: an inherited assessment, an inactive lifestyle, a job with severe physical work, a surplus of the body, has suffered injuries - his appearance by physiologically aging bodies and natural dehydration of the nuclei of the intervertebral discus.Only a healthy and active lifestyle can slow down these processes that must be maintained until age.
