Generally speaking, exogenous pathogens are mostly true in the exterior and interior, and the onset is sudden, so the treatment should be based on eliminating evil and dredging collaterals, according to the difference of cold, dampness and dampness.

6. Prevention and care

To prevent low back pain, you should avoid sitting and lying in the wetland. If you wade in the water, get wet in the rain or sweat, you should change your clothes and wipe your body. When steaming in hot and humid summer, you should avoid staying outdoors at night or drinking cold water. Don't try to lift weights, and don't do strenuous exercise without preparation. This syndrome is due to kidney deficiency, so we should avoid excessive sexual intercourse and labor. Nursing care of low back pain can be self-massage, waist exercise, Tai Ji Chuan, frequent bathing or hot water bathing.

Low back pain refers to the symptoms of pain on one side or both sides of the waist connected with the spine, which is common in both men and women, mostly in women. According to statistics, patients with low back pain in gynecological clinics account for about 10% of the total number of patients. Common reasons mainly include the following:

1. Women who have been engaged in standing operations such as spinning, printing and dyeing, hairdressing and selling goods for a long time. Due to continuous standing, the stretching ability of lumbar tendons and ligaments is weakened, and excessive lactic acid can be accumulated locally, which inhibits the normal metabolism of lumbar muscles and can also lead to low back pain caused by lumbar muscle strain. Often carrying heavy objects, the waist burden is too heavy, prone to scoliosis, causing lumbar muscle strain and low back pain.

Second, urinary system infection Because the female urethra is short and straight, and the external urethra is close to the anus, Escherichia coli is often parasitic. In addition, due to the physiological characteristics of women, there are more opportunities for urethral orifice pollution. If hygiene is neglected, urinary system infection is easy to occur. Low back pain is mostly caused by acute and chronic pyelonephritis, manifested as swelling and pain in the waist, and severe cases radiate along the ureter to the perineum. Besides urinary system infection, diseases such as urinary calculi and tuberculosis can also cause low back pain.

Third, women with reproductive diseases have to go through about 400 reproductive organs in their lifetime, and they are also burdened with pregnancy, childbirth and other missions; Some women also have abortions and birth control operations. Therefore, the incidence of reproductive organ inflammation is high, such as salpingitis and pelvic inflammatory disease. These inflammations are easy to be complicated with low back pain, uterine retroversion and retroflexion, which is also one of the reasons for low back pain in women. Serious reproductive organ diseases such as hysteromyoma, cervical cancer and ovarian cyst can cause oppressive low back pain.

Fourth, women suffering from rheumatism and rheumatoid arthritis due to cold and trauma are often attacked by wind, dampness and cold during menstruation, childbirth and postpartum, leading to long bone spurs in the spine and inducing low back pain. If the waist has been sprained, it may develop into disc herniation, causing severe low back pain and even affecting the flexion, extension and rotation of the spine.

5. During pregnancy and postpartum fatigue, as the fetus grows up, the ligaments of the lumbosacral and pelvic joints of pregnant women relax, and the weight of the uterus increases with the growth of gestational age, so that the center of gravity of the body moves forward. In order to keep your body balanced, your waist should lean forward. If you don't pay attention to rest, it is easy to cause low back pain. During pregnancy, fetal development needs enough nutrients such as calcium and phosphorus. If the intake in the diet is insufficient, it will cause osteomalacia and decalcification of pregnant women, and it will also cause low back pain. Excessive bleeding during puerperium, or premature delivery, fatigue and cold. It can also cause low back pain.

Sixth, lumbar lesions are more common in elderly women. With the increase of age, the symptoms of lumbar nerve compression will also increase. Pseudospondylolisthesis caused by degenerative diseases is a common disease, which easily leads to lumbar spinal stenosis, compression of spinal cord and nerve roots, low back pain and radiation pain of lower limbs, and is often a collapsed fracture of vertebral body caused by osteoporosis. The formation of osteophyte in the elderly can cause spinal stiffness and persistent low back pain.

In addition, menopausal women may also suffer from low back pain due to autonomic nervous dysfunction, which is manifested as getting up in the morning and relieving after exercise. There are also factors such as irregular menstruation, dysmenorrhea or emotional crisis, which are also prone to low back pain.

Low back pain, don't think it's all "strain"

There are dozens of reasons for low back pain. The common diseases are lumbar hyperosteogeny, bone spur, disc herniation, lumbar hypertrophy, spinal canal stenosis, lumbar fracture, spinal tumor, acute and chronic lumbar trauma or strain, lumbar muscle strain, ankylosing spondylitis and so on. In the traditional concept, chronic low back pain is often considered as "lumbar muscle strain" after systemic examination excludes disease factors. In fact, 40% patients with low back pain suffer from chronic osteofascial compartment syndrome, but they have been troubled by low back pain for a long time because they cannot get symptomatic treatment. Many patients have had low back pain for a long time, and some people even have been hurting for 50 years and still don't know what is going on. The trend of low back pain is also obvious, and some people suffer from this disease at the age of 18.

The back is the most powerful part of the human body, providing support and protecting the spine. For people who are sedentary in the office for a long time and lack exercise, or who need to stand for a long time because of work, it is easy to cause low back pain, leading to chronic osteofascial compartment syndrome in lumbosacral region, and some of them accumulate after repeated injuries. Many patients with chronic low back pain are related to chronic osteofascial compartment syndrome, which may be caused by the increase of pressure in the osteofascial compartment, which leads to the disappearance of the subfascial space of the lower back, the decrease of muscle blood flow and the degeneration of loose adipose tissue. Because of this kind of injury, patients will have low back pain whether they walk more, sit more or lie more, that is, it is easy to have low back pain if they keep a posture for a long time. This is an important clinical feature of chronic osteofascial compartment syndrome.

Small knowledge of rehabilitation medicine can also see the problem through "walking"

Gait is a behavioral feature that people move their bodies through the alternating movements of their feet. Gait analysis reveals the causes and laws of abnormal gait through the study of walking laws, and evaluates the degree of injury and rehabilitation. Rehabilitation doctors have been able to let patients "walk" while seeing a doctor through special machines! Through gait analysis, doctors can provide objective diagnosis basis for patients' health, sub-health and diseases of bones, muscles and nervous system such as orthopedics, neurology and surgery. At the same time, it can provide objective and true basis for the formulation of surgical plan, the evaluation of postoperative effect and the evaluation of rehabilitation effect.

Four new concepts of orthopedic rehabilitation medicine

* Not only patients with late recovery or sequela should be rehabilitated, but also patients should be rehabilitated from the early clinical stage to strengthen their awareness of clinical rehabilitation.

* It is necessary to master not only the skills of rehabilitation specialty itself, but also the principles of clinical treatment of related diseases, such as related orthopedic injuries and diseases, in order to cooperate with rehabilitation.

* We should not only form an "intra-disciplinary team" with therapists in various treatment departments of rehabilitation medicine, but also closely contact doctors in orthopedics and other related clinical departments to form an "interdisciplinary team" to provide patients with the best rehabilitation treatment.

* Not only give full play to the role of non-surgical rehabilitation therapy in functional rehabilitation, but also fully understand the value and role of necessary orthopedic surgery in functional rehabilitation, and introduce patients who should undergo rehabilitation surgery into orthopedic surgery in time to correct deformity and improve function.

For a long time, people have always thought that it is best to sleep on a hard bed for those who always complain about low back pain. In order to verify the scientific rationality of this traditional statement, Spanish scientists recently conducted a related experiment. The experimental results show that for patients with low back pain, the type of mattress that can best relieve their low back pain is medium hardness, not the hard hardness that people often say.

The researchers explained that because hard mattresses can provide better support for the whole body, doctors generally recommend people with low back pain to use hard mattresses. But experiments have proved that the hardness of the mattress should be moderate, not too hard, so as to relieve the low back pain itself. Researchers say that the waist is one of the most prone to problems in all parts of the human body. Most people will leave back pain at some stage of their lives, either because of injury, careless use of their waist or accidents. At the same time, few people know that the cost of treating low back pain is amazing. Rehabilitation therapy: massage,

(2) Back rubbing: After work, you can rub your back muscles with your hands in the morning or before going to bed at night, rubbing them up and down for 50~ 100 times, and twisting your waist at the same time, which has the functions of relaxing muscles and activating blood circulation, promoting local blood circulation and improving low back pain.

(3) Kneading tendons and knots: Carefully touch the waist and sacrum with your thumb. If there is tenderness induration, press it with the thumb, and knead each induration 1 min.

Every night 1 time or in the morning 1 time.

(2) sit-ups: supine, abdomen. Be careful not to use upper limbs to help, keep lower limbs straight, and the number of times is uncertain. This kind of exercise can also reduce abdominal fat.

When lying on the back, put the hot water bag on the painful part of the waist and slightly below the sacrum, and the damp heat lasts for about 10 minute, and then lasts for about 10 minute on both sides of the waist respectively.
