Osteochondrosis is a chronic process accompanied by nutrition and destruction of cartilage tissue.It can develop in almost any joint and very often in the intervertebral discs (cervical, thoracic, lumbar osteochondrosis).
This does not happen easily.
The fact is that every day your back experiences heavy loads due to upright walking and gravity.At the same time, for the vertebral and intervertebral discs between them and the uninjured, the entire spinal column is surrounded by a large number of short and long back muscles that are interconnected with other organs and parts of the body.
It may be surprising, but the latest medical research convinces that the main role in the development of osteochondrosis is played by weakness, tone and proper functioning of the spinal muscles!Therefore, most of the weight is redistributed to the bones and cartilage of the spine.This is a protective reflex of the body to maintain an upright posture.But without enough muscle support, the cartilage can't cope.
Discs have microcracks, inflammation, pain and stiffness.
Constant overload is experienced, the vertebrae begin to deform and the cartilaginous discs flatten, which, if advanced, can even lead to unpleasant complications such as vertebral displacement, disc herniation, nerve root.
Inflammation and pain occur.All of these can be aggravated by:
- insufficient physical activity;
- overweight;
- poor nutrition;
- irrational habits (insufficient physical activity, bags on one shoulder, crooked posture in front of the computer, driving, etc.).
Now, our doctors know that this problem is not only found in elderly patients, but also in quite young people.
Treatment of cervical osteochondrosis.
Cervical osteochondrosis, very unpleasant and uncomfortable sensations arise: pain in the head, pain in the shoulders and even the arms, which are associated with the characteristics of the innervation.When chronic, it causes problems such as vertebral artery insufficiency and cerebrovascular accident.
Traditional methods of treatment of cervical osteochondrosis are ineffective in most cases, and the drugs have a toxic, allergic effect and are quickly addictive without a lasting therapeutic effect.Therefore, manual treatment for cervical osteochondrosis is used more widely and with the correct approach, it has a long-term positive effect.
