Back pain: What to do?

Spinal and back muscles "get younger" every year.Even teenagers in our day are facing various problems, not yet parents.In the treatment of pain, diagnosis plays an important role.It is necessary to find the cause of the disease, only effective therapy.

The main reason why a person suffering from back pain can be distinguished:

  • spinal disease;
  • hernia (a highlight of the channel where the spinal cord is located);
  • back disease;
  • benign and oncology tumors;
  • damage to the internal organs;
  • SEDENTARI LIFE;
  • Excessive physical activity.

A variety of back pain and possible causes

Let us consider in more detail the options for localization of pain and the possibility of their appearance.

In the lower back area

Often, parents experience such pain.The main reason is the local inflammation process.Disease manifestations:

  • After a certain distance traveling, the pain appears in the back and gives it to the feet;
  • With further load, unpleasant sensations increase;
  • Foot norms;
  • The pain is relieved if you bend your back.

The cause of back pain above the lower back can be recognized by analyzing the sensation.For example, around the pain, which concentrates under the ribs on the left and into the lower back, accompanied by intestinal disorders, high body temperature, vomiting, nausea, talking about pancreatitis.

Acute pain in the lower back is associated with:

  • Break the cyst in women;
  • Kidney stone;
  • inflammation of the ureter;
  • Acute intestinal disease.

In the lumbar region on the right

Picking the pain on the right can talk about:

  • oncology;
  • myosite;
  • scoliosis;
  • Pass in the degenerative process vertebra.

Strong, sharp, acute pain above the lower back appears after severe hypothermia, injury, with appendicitis, hernia, inflammation.In this area, it hurts with kidney pathology, when the fluid is not completely removed from the body.Acute pain may indicate urolithiasis and bile disease.

Above the lower back on the right, it also hurts (engraving, burning) with:

  • kyphosis;
  • scoliosis;
  • inflammation of the spinal cord nerve root;
  • bone form of tuberculosis;
  • Osteomyel.

With damage to the spine, not only does he suffer, but also the muscles in this area.

In the lower back area on the left

The pain in the left, which does not pass even at the rest that occurs while walking, and with physical tension, and when running, and after a long journey or at the end of the working day.If it does not pass after the break, the reason may be:

  • osteochondrosis;
  • scoliosis;
  • Blood circulation is affected;
  • Infectious spinal cord.

If it hurts when walking and passing after the break, this can be caused by radiculitis, spinal displacement, diabetes mellitus (on stage when it affects the joints), and pinching the nerve roots.

The pain in the left, above the lumbar region, occurs among office workers, teachers and others in an inactive lifestyle.This may indicate the onset of osteochondrosis, weak posture, and new hypothermia -recently.

IMPORTANT!Acute, around the pain that gives the left shoulder blade can be a symptom of myocardial infarction.

Abdominal ulcer "gives" here.The nature of pain is stitching.

Muscle aches in the back

Bookings at the bottom, accompanied by muscle overvoltage.Very often appear in the morning or after rest, after prolonged muscle relaxation.If the muscles are loaded for a long time, then the pain gradually increases.The reason for his appearance:

  • lifting severity;
  • Overstrain due to sitting, uncomfortable and/or wrong posture;
  • Hypothermia (persistent pain, cutting pain, difficult to straighten your back).

Nerves pinching

Often, the sciatic nerves are pinched (the disease is called "ishias") for osteochondrosis, the muscles -otot with nervous spasms.In this case, it can hurt in the back and bottom area, sacrum, neck.The pain caused by a pinch of the nerve is often given to the feet, buttocks.Other causes are distinguished: pear -shaped muscle spasms, late pregnancies (pain can speak about the threat of miscarriage!), Infections, intervertebral disc displacements, narrowing the vertebral tract.

Intervertebral hernia

The pathological symptoms include:

  • lose the sensitivity of the toes and arms;
  • pain that gives an arm or shoulder;
  • Pain given in feet or buttocks.

The last two symptoms differ in the localization of the hernia.

The most common cause of hernia is the deformation of the intervertebral disc associated with disturbed metabolism.The disc is dry, dry, loss of elasticity.As a result, it stands out, and the distance between the vertebrae decreases.With sharp loads and active physical exercises, hernia can also be formed.

In the blade area

The shoulder blade is a triangular paired bone near the shoulder and collarbone.The muscles responsible for movement in the shoulder zone are attached to it.The type of pain under the shoulder blade in the field of medicine is divided into several groups:

  • naturally - sharp, attractive, pulse, pain, and burning, and so on;
  • by localization - under the right spatula from behind, in the middle, on the left, between the ribs, giving it to the chest;
  • In terms of duration - with sharp debut, periodically, it increases or decreases - the value also has how many attacks last.

The main reason:

  • Reflective reflective syndrome (pain or severe pain in the shoulder, under the shoulder blade or above it, can cover the entire shoulder and part of the sternum, accompanied by crisis when the shoulder or hand rotates);
  • Abdominal ulcer (pain, tedious pain that increases or weakens after taking the medication more frequently on the left, accompanied by heartburn, nausea, vomiting);
  • osteochondrosis (pain, accompanied by impaired visual function, dizziness, emitting pain in the hands);
  • Intercostal neuralgia (increased by foot, deep breath, cough, serious physical activity, movement suddenly, sneezing);
  • Angina pectoris (attack begins with pain in the middle of the chest, which quickly spreads and gives under the shoulder blade on the left, to the spine, below the collarbone on the left).

Which doctor to contact?

With back pain, you should contact a neurologist.The doctor will prescribe diagnostic steps based on your clinical picture.

Osteochondrosis: the danger of disease

The main manifestation of osteochondrosis is the degenerative process that occurs on the vertebral and intervertebral disc.Pathology can be localized in the neck, chest and lower back.

The signs and reasons

Consider how the pathology appears and why it appears.

Symptoms of osteochondrosis:

  • The main symptom for osteochondrosis is pain.It can be acute, increasing when moving, forcing patients to take improper pose where it does not hurt.There is also persistent pain, a bit intense, boring.
  • Feeling fatigue in the back.
  • Stock when moving the limbs.

The danger of the disease is that it is "masked" for other pathologies.Due to compression of the nerve root, muscle cramps occur, and others.It is often confused with:

  • gastritis and other gastrointestinal lesions;
  • Muscle myositis;
  • Angina Pectoris;
  • Renal colic.

With the combination of several nerve roots with osteochondrosis, radicular syndrome may appear.

Diagnostics

The disease is diagnosed in several stages:

  • collect anamnesis, study the patient's complaints, the history of the disease;
  • Patient examination, style assessment, body position, skin condition, two -sided symmetry, volume of movement, and other -more;
  • X -ray separately each spine, can be prescribed radiography function;
  • Computed tomography - directed a picture of one or two parts of the spine;
  • Magnetic resonance imaging-visualizing nerve processes, vessels, intervertebral discs.

Who is the neurologist he needs?

Neurologists are involved in nervous system diseases, which are based on violations of the function of nerve cells, neurons, and the weakness of the relationship between them.Inflammation of the spinal cord and brain also falls to the specialist area.

The inspection is:

  • feeling of localization in space, coordination of movement;
  • touch sensitivity and temperature;
  • feeling pressure on the body by placing different heavy objects;
  • the ability to stand in romberg pose;
  • skin reflexes and tendons;
  • muscle strength;
  • Sample indicators (for example, touch the tip of the nose with your finger).

What symptoms do experts want to contact?

You should contact a neurologist if you have the following symptoms:

  • seizures, loss of consciousness;
  • dizzy suddenly;
  • shaky, uncertain;
  • Headache more often once a week;
  • Visual functions are affected by the background of headaches, vomiting, nausea, blood pressure jumps;
  • loss of vision (temporary);
  • Muscle weakness, which increases and is not restored;
  • shaking on the feet and arms;
  • Slow reaction;
  • stiffness in the body;
  • back pain, arms, legs, shoulders;
  • Memory deterioration;
  • reduce skin sensitivity, tingling, numbness;
  • excessive insomnia or drowsiness;
  • changes in the perception of taste and odor;
  • Attacks of fear, panic, tachycardia, chills, heat for no reason.

How are neurologists different from neuropathologists?

Neuropathologists study the morphology of the pathology of the nervous system, and neurologists - nerve diseases.

Back pain treatment

Consider a list of the main methods of treating back pain:

  • manual therapy;
  • surgical treatment products (in case of emergency);
  • physiotherapy;
  • Therapeutic restrictions (injection of painkillers with prolonged effects);
  • Advanced spine - dry and in water;
  • take drugs;
  • Exercise therapy;
  • sequence;
  • Post muscle isometric relaxation.

Exercise from back pain

To stretch the spine and strengthen the muscle corset that holds your posture, it is useful to perform the following exercises.They can be done if you are not injured.

  • Vis on a horizontal bar for at least 30 seconds a day.
  • Lie on your back on gymnastics carpet.Press the shoulder blade to the floor, bend your feet on your knees.Take the knee to the right as much as they can touch the floor, and then - to the left.

IMPORTANT!Exercise cannot be done with pain syndrome.If you arrive during training, you need to stop gymnastics.

  • Wake up, put your shoulders.Hands - on the belt.We make round movement clockwise and vice versa.10 times in every direction.
  • "Boat".Lying on your stomach, stretching your hands.Next, we bend the body so that the chest, head, and feet come out of the floor.Repeat 15 times, lasting for 1-2 seconds at the top point.
  • Stand in all four, straight arms, slightly in front of the head.We take the pelvis back and down, touching them the heel.Repeat 10 times.
  • To approach the wall, press on it with a pelvis, heel, nape, shoulder blade.Stand for 1 minute, increase time daily, until you reach 10 minutes.
  • Lying on your stomach, stretching your arms forward, keeping your feet together.Instead, we raise the leg straight to the maximum height, without bending on the knee.Linger at the top for 1-2 seconds.Lower.Repeat with the other legs.Make 10 times for each foot.
