Osteocondrosis of the spine

Osteochondrosis is a widespread disease of intervertebral disks that occur in people of different age groups.Today, more than 40% of fair youth in the age of 35 are diagnosed and 9 of the old category affects 9 out of 10 people.It has detected several phases of development and previously pathology, treatment is easier and more effective and lowers the risk of developing dangerous complications.

What is osteocondrosis

The intervertebral disks are located between vertebral objects and are a kind of shock absorber to absorb the stress while performing other physical activities.There are different dimensions depending on their position: The discs in the cervical region are the smallest and waist spine in the spine.

All are built the same.The center is a key part of the disc and is a nuclear pulp.This fibrous membrane is surrounded by the whole.

Osteochondrosis is a degenerative-dystrophic disease created for the formation of intervals and preliminary conditions, formation of intervals and preconditions, verbal trunks, spondylosis and other disorders.

The tenderness of the discs is the result of the nutrition of cartilage tissue, which causes gradual decreasing and increased fragility in elasticity.

As a result, the discs change the position of the discs, the height decreases and microcras occurs in their fiberglass.This creates serious conditions for the formation of intervertebral torns, pinching spinal roots or blood vessels.

The slightest changes in the status of the discs cause their functions to be violated.This is accompanied by a variety of intensive degree pain.At the same time, the prerequisites are being established for the development of the diseases of the internal organs, because the quality of their activities depends on the condition of direct spine and bioelectric impettions along the nerve.

Any part of the spine can affect one or more intervertebral disks.Therefore, osteocondrosis is diagnosed:

• cervical spine;
• Torakal spine;
• Lomber waist.

The pathological process, especially in serious cases, is a majority of the majority of the spinal column, accompanied by anxiety along the back, and almost complete performance.However, most osteocondrosis, the largest load, as well as the higher mobility, carries the intervertebral disks of the cervical waist.

Development

4 stages may be approximately different during osteocondrosis:

• Decrease in the level of hydration of the disc leads to the formation of thirst and micransur.Often at this stage, there is still no analysis of the disease.
• Decreasing the height of the disc leads to the appearance of the first signs of pathology.At this stage, there is a decrease in the distance between individual segments, which causes a decrease in the tone of spinal lives, and the likelihood of vertabra's natural positions, ie the development of spondylaticistan.In such situations, a course like the wave of the disease is most observed.Between acute pain, acute pain and remission periods, may distinguish between periods, the presence of everything or painful pain.
• With the deformation of the affected intervertebral disk or forming prolapse.Sometimes, there is an involvement of joints in a pathological process that manifests itself with the development of arthritis or vertebral sublulakhs.At this stage, the immune system reacts to the processes in the waist, developing aseptic inflammation with the swelling of tissues around the affected spinal-engine segment.In this case, pain occurs regularly, reflex muscle spasms, as well as mobility restrictions.Rarely, as a result of the pinches of nerve fibers as a result of the emergence of intervertebral disks.
• The development of complications.Since the human body has extensive compensation capabilities, the intervertebral disk is activated to ensure the osteosynthesis process when the intervertebral disk lost its functions.This is the formation of bone protrusions - the formation of osteophytees - the edges of the vertebral bodies of the affected spine segment.As a result, according to them, two or more vertebraes protect each other in a solid, form a combined conglomerate, ie spondyloz develops.This always leads to the development of acute neurological symptoms in the form of paralysis and serious concerns in the activities of nervous and relevant internal organs.

Reasons

Today there are many theories for the development of osteocondrosis, including vascular, mechanical, heritage, hormonal, infectious-allergic and others.However, none of them can fully explain the mechanism of development of changes in the tissues of intervert.Therefore, it is most likely that all complement each other.

Thus, a large number of various factors can lead to the development of osteocondrosis.Among them are the most important:

• genetic tendency;
• regular performance of severe physical work;
• Keep a seated lifestyle;
• the presence of scoliosis or other spinal deformities;
• suffering from rear injuries;
• Unbalanced diet, vitamin deficiency;
• infectious diseases;
• metabolic disorders;
• Congenital anomalies of the spine (anomaly, chiari anomaly, cranioverbral anomalies, sacralization, lumbarization);
• overweight;
• regular heavy stress.

He believes that the most important impact on the state of intervertebral disks is a permanent overlay of a certain spinal movement segment.It can only be a monotonous harsh physical work, but also a habit of situating durable or sit for a long time.In such situations, additional stresses are placed on the disks, muscles and ligaments and other factors aggravate the situation.

In general, osteocondrosis can be called a disease of almost natural age, which is an inevitable price to pay to steak.

Symptoms

The earliest sign of the development of the disease is the establishment of a part in the back where the beginning of degenerative-dystrophic changes.This is the result of the formation of riots in the development of the disk and the development of the dehydration.At this stage, patients are almost never looking for medical care.Therefore, their daily development, eating habits and other factors remain the same, which contributes to the deterioration of the situation and the second stage of the disease.

As a result, typical symptoms of osteocondrosis begin to appear:

• heavy muscle tension on only one or both sides of the spine in the affected area;
• Acute and aching pain, which is strengthened with each movement and gaining intensity in time, becomes unbearable;
• Numbness in arm or legs;
• weakness;
• Unauthorized restriction of actions, motility;
• muscle tone decreased to complete the atrophy;
• poor posture;
• Drive in blood pressure.

As the pathological progress, the signs of osteocondrosis are deteriorating.80% of patients feel dull pain in the territory of the spinal movement segment, which is also characteristic of myosite.

Osteocondrosis of cervical waist

While the cervical spine affects pain, the pain tends to cover other manifestations of shoulder zone, arms and neurological disorders.Patients hold their heads in the most painful position and turn with the whole body when needed.

In addition, pathologies of innervated organs can develop in the cervical spinal cord region:

• Diseases of the Tinnitus and ENT;
• dizziness;
• blurry vision;
• migraine;
• increase in irritation and anxiety levels;
• Sleep problems;
• increase in allergic reactions;
• decrease in the level of thyroid hormones.

With the osteocondrosis of cervical spine, vertebral artery syndrome and vegetative-vein dystonia are often diagnosed with additional time.

Especially when it comes to intervertebral torns, the cervical waist infection of osteocondrosis can cause the pinches of blood vessels.This is full of impaired blood supply to the brain that can be accompanied by dizziness, loss of consciousness and even a shot.

Osteocondrosis of the thoracic spine

In extremely rarely, pain in the torakal region, the osteocondrosis of the region occurs in the waist in the shoulder blades, and may be strengthened while breathing deep.They are often felt behind the breast bone that can be mistaken for heart disease.

When the spinal roots are squeezed, the risk of the diseases of the internal organs is especially growing.

• Bronchi and lungs (asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia, pleurisy);
• gallbladder and its channels, liver (cholexes, yellowing, fat absorption disorders);
• the pancreas and duodenum (digestive disorders, pain in the left hypocondrium);
• Adrenal glands that affect the overall strength of the immune system and cause the development of allergies;
• Kidneys (urinary disorders, chronic pyelonephritis, glomerulonephritis, etc.);
• Pelvic bodies (digestive disorders, gynecological, urological diseases, infinity).

Fact: Damage to the intervertebral disk of the 7th Torakal Vertabra can lead to the development of diabetes on osteocondrosis.

Osteocondrosis of the lumbosakral waist

Lumbago, an osteocondrosis of the Lumbar region, is observed in Lumbago.This burning, suddenly accompanied by unbearable pain.Often patients are even difficult to develop, upgrade and walk in the development of radicular syndrome.In such situations, it is easy to sit down as slowly as possible to bend their torsos.

If complications occur, the main threat is to squeeze the nerves of Gaudan Equina, as it can cause impetement processes, as well as violations of the legs.In such cases, in the following cases, the following may arise:

• Appendicitis;
• Diarrhea, constipation;
• pain in the lower abdomen;
• bladder dysfunction;
• impossibility;
• pain in knees, legs, hips or groin territory;
• swelling of the legs.

Complications

Osteochondrosis is a possible cause of a large number of various diseases.If it was often untreated, it causes protrusion and intervertebral torns.This in turn can cause:

• Diskogenic myelopathy in the pareseline, muscle atrophy, change in tendon reflexes, loss of control over urine and defecation and even paralyzed the extremities;
• radiculopathy;
• scoliotic or other spinal deformity;
• Sorting cord infarction due to the compression of the artery nutrition;
• stroke due to the compression of the oxipital artery.

Diagnosis

The appearance of the pain in the back and neck should be a reason to connect with a neurologist or onurtaurant.The sooner is diagnosed with osteocondrosis, treatment will be easier and more effective.

The doctor interview and explores the patient to diagnose the disease.According to the results, it is possible to accept degenerative changes on intervertebral disks.However, for a recent diagnosis, instrumental diagnostic methods are determined, including:

• Mri;
• Ct;
• X-ray in two predictions.

Magnetic Resonance Image provides the most complete information about the state of intervertebral disks.The procedure is mainly implemented on indoor devices that are capable of 1.5 T., with its help, osteocondrosis tuberculosis spondylitis, osteomyelitis, infectious diseases, etc.

CT scans and ray rays provide information about the bone structures of the spine.Thanks to them, it is possible to discover the displacement of vertebral trunks, osteophyte and other disorders.

In addition, the following may be determined:

• Ultrasound with dopplerography of neck vessels;
• Electromicography;
• Laboratory research.

Treatment of osteocondrosis

Therapy is designed individually for each patient.In this case, the violence of degenerative-dystrophic processes should be taken into account, the fact that complications, the patient's work activity and other factors are a number of functions.

All patients should be determined by a number of measures, because the intervertebral disks are not possible to remove the pathological changes only with the help of drugs.Conservative therapy for osteocondrosis can cover the following:

• Drug therapy;
• osteopathy;
• Hand therapy;
• Physiotherapy (Fonopathers, Ozon Therapy, Carboxerterapy, Burma, RF Currents);
• individual sessions with a rehabilitator.

It is recommended to reconsider the lifestyle of all patients diagnosed with intervertebral disk dystrophy.Especially important for people who have to raise heavy things every day are important to take time for the professional physical activity for professional trading or vice versa.

However, it is recommended to fully relax in the acute period.It is provided only by protecting bed rest, but also with an orthopedic bandage: when damage caused by cervical waist, a chance collar is used;In the event of osteocondrosis of the Lumbar region, it is recommended to wear corsets.

In the first stages of the development of the disease, it is often enough to adjust your lifestyle, engage in training therapy and visit a chiropractor.In more advanced cases, drug treatment and physiotherapy are defined.

You can never lose the remains of your health with the suspect "Healers" and the suspect "healers", which is self-medication by suspicious means.

Drug therapy

For osteochondrosis, the medication complex is determined to reduce pain, reduce inflammation and reflex muscle spasms, improve nervous conductivity and activate the processes of intervertebral disks.

So patients are assigned:

• NSAIDs - help reduce pain and have an anti-inflammatory effect;
• Corticosteroids - demonstrate anti-inflammatory properties;
• Muscle streams - Eliminate muscle spasms, which helps reduce back pain;
• Vitamins B - to ensure that the nervous system is generally improved and nervous impulses along individual nerves;
• Vitamin D is responsible for higher brain functions such as the condition of bone tissue, as well as memory, attention, speech;
• Chondroprotants - feed intervertible discs with the compounds necessary for the construction of new fibers of pure pulps;
• Psychotropic medications - increase the effectiveness of non-steroid anti-inflammatory drugs and muscle streams;
• Vascular drugs - improve the blood circulation in the tissues around the spine, which provides more active nourishing and oxygen to intervertebral disks;
• Antikonvulsants - very heavy spasms are rarely used to eliminate.

For a very violent pain showing the appeals, as patients can quickly pass away blockades.Sometimes corticosteroid hormones are added to the solution to perform the blockade.This causes an anti-inflammatory effect.

The blockades are carried out only in a state of sterility that can achieve in specialized medical institutions.At the same time, they require special knowledge and skills, so it can only cope with a highly qualified medical employee.Otherwise, the risk of infection or damage to the nervous fibers, which causes the development of heavy complications, is high.

In siege, injections are usually given on both sides of the spine in the area where the pain caused pain.There are several ways to implement them, among them are selected individually by a doctor.

However, it is recommended to perform blockades not more than 4 times a year.Osteochondrosis since the attacks of acute, painful pain, more, the first, the first effort to eliminate the reasons for the occurrence, that is, a degenerative-doprophic process of the combination.

Textbook therapy

Manual therapy sessions are determined outside the period of escalation of osteocondrosis.They play one of the leading roles in the treatment of the disease, because the authorized use of hand techniques in the spine and surrounding tissues only helps to stop the progress of the pathological process on intervertebral disks and create the most favorable conditions for their recovery.

In addition, certain techniques can also have a positive impact on the activities of internal organs.For example, one of the methods, normalizing the position of each Vertebra, to eliminate the pressure on spinal roots, blood vessels and spinal membranes, and thus restoring the normal connection of the body with a nervous system.This allows the heart, bronch, lungs, kidneys, gastrointestinal tract and reproductive system to eliminate the hidden reasons for the development of the above diseases and lead to reproductive system and restoration.

Thanks to the jewelry and accurate influence of the spine, only the blood circulation is activated and the natural self-medical mechanisms are being activated, as well as a classical therapeutic massage of metabolism.The wrong position of the spine, the wrong position of the spine and the wrong position of the spine, strengthen the immune system, improve the immune system, improve the general welfare and improve the quality of life.

After the first session, positive changes can be seen and their intensity in the future is only growing.

Physiotherapy

Physiotherapy procedures increase the effectiveness of all other methods of osteocondrosis treatment and help reduce pain.Most used to:

• Electrophorezz - allows anesthesia, anti-inflammatory site to ensure the entry of an inflammatory site directly to the inflammation site, quickly accessing a therapeutic effect;
• Ultrasonic therapy - Ultrasonic effects, analyzes affect, increase the intensity of metabolic processes in the impact, and creates conditions for high quality recovery of thin intervertebral disks;
• Divide therapy - stretches and massages a special rib mattress that activates the blood circulation and increases muscle tone;
• Traction therapy or spinal stretching - using special devices with a voltage load of spine, the distance between the vertebra is reduced sharply, which is dramatically reduced to the obsolete intervert.

All procedures are set in 10-15 session courses.While choosing them, not only the state of interverference, but also the presence of the electorate, because some physical impacts are contraindicated in some.

Therapy

Therapeutic exercises for osteocondrosis play a significant role, because properly selected exercises for damage to different parts of the spine can help you create a strong muscle cassette and eliminate the growing muscle tone.This will give good support to the spine and stop the movement of the degenerative process on intervertebral disks.In addition, the training therapy helps to activate blood circulation and increase the intensity of metabolic processes.

Compiling a physical therapy program is a rehabilitation doctor.The severity of the spinal lesion will create the characteristics of the patient's physical development, the characteristics of the age and other factors, create an optimal set of optimal training, and create optimal loads on the muscles and waist.

The first grades should be conducted under the doctor's supervision.After the patient has learned to perform every exercise properly, it is allowed to continue to practice at home.It is important to prevent any sudden movement.All exercises are carried slowly and smoothly and truck gradually increases.However, the formation of pain during exercise is a good reason to give up the exercise that insults it.

Prevention

It is easier to prevent the development of a disease than resolve the following results.Osteochondrosis should think about the risks as early as possible because everyone can happen and then. You need to make an effort to prevent it.Therefore, each person must follow the following recommendations:

• Avoid physical inaction, exercise regularly, swim and get regular breaks for warming during sedentary work;
• Notice your posture while walking or sitting;
• Get high quality orthopedic mattresses and pillows;
• Follow the right technique to remove the weight: with straight back and bent knees;
• Replace casual shoes to the most convenient ones and leave clothes shoes for special occasions;
• Eat properly to experience the body's nutrition and the weight to normal levels.

There is only one way to prevent the appearance and manifestation of the symptoms of osteocondrosis - begin to care for yourself and your health.Osteochondrosis is not just a disease, because the physical inactivity of the body, the environment and chronic neurosis, the environment and chronic neurosis, among the environment and chronic neurosis, especially in the pool, including yoga.

Thus, Osteocondrosis is a disease of a lot of dissemination, but you can fattle effectively in any age, carefully, in your health.But it will not be a good thing without ignoring the problem, and then the patient will force you to sleep on the operation table.
