Elderly people who are afraid of falling and fracture surgery have low risk of spinal grouting.

Luo Agong, an 88-year-old man with heart disease in Taichung, accidentally fell down at home, causing waist pain. Grandpa didn't want to see a doctor, so his family had to help him put on a cloth. Unexpectedly, after two weeks of patience, the back pain became more and more serious. Finally, he needed help to turn over, and his family finally sent him to the emergency department. Dr. Zhou, director of neurosurgery, said that the first lumbar fracture was confirmed by examination. Although spinal fractures are not immediately fatal, severe pain often forces patients to stay in bed. However, long-term bed rest may cause complications such as bedsore and pneumonia. In addition, due to the problem of osteoporosis, the traditional spinal steel nail fixation is not easy to be stable, and the wound is large, the healing time is long, and there may be complications after operation. At present, spinal grouting surgery can be performed clinically, which requires local anesthesia. A special needle is inserted into the fracture and then bone cement is injected. The operation was performed in a minimally invasive way, and the incision was less than 1 cm. Dr. Zhou pointed out that the use of bone cement to support the damaged and fragile spine increased the volume and strength of the vertebral body, and the postoperative pain was significantly reduced. For the elderly or patients with heart disease, the risk of spinal grouting is less and safer. Doctors appeal that spinal fracture is the most common complication of osteoporosis patients, so it is easy to happen to the elderly. Therefore, we should pay special attention to prevent falls and supplement enough calcium so that bones will not increase after the age of 20. Therefore, it is suggested that the bone should be preserved as soon as possible. As long as both men and women are over 40 years old, bone loss will occur year by year (two to three thousandths per year); However, if osteoporosis occurs, we can only slow down the bone loss through a balanced diet, supplementing foods rich in calcium, developing regular exercise and moderate sun exposure. Every person over 5 1 year old should consume 1000 mg of calcium and 800 mg of phosphorus every day; In addition, in order to make calcium absorbed, vitamin D is needed, so it is necessary to bask in the sun moderately or supplement vitamin D, such as cod liver oil.
