What is the disease of sudden stabbing pain in the waist

The waist, as the support of the human body, usually bears a heavier weight than other parts. Therefore, if we do not take care of our waist, it is easy to cause various problems with the waist. For example, more and more people are experiencing sudden pain in the waist. In this case, many friends do not know what disease causes this. So in order for friends to better protect their waists, this article will introduce what disease the sudden pain in the waist is.

For sudden stabbing pain in the waist, it is recommended to do a lumbar CT scan to confirm the diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation. Conservative treatment can be started in the early stage of lumbar disc herniation. Usually, you should rest on a hard bed, avoid bending over to lift heavy objects, avoid local cold, and actively perform back muscle function exercises.

When you suffer from lower back pain, you can use local hot compresses, massage, acupuncture, infrared and other physical therapies, and take appropriate oral ibuprofen, lumbar pain suppressant and chlorzoxazone or Chinese medicine. If leg pain or other symptoms such as nerve root compression occur, lumbar traction should be used for treatment. Sacral canal blockade can also be used, but intraspinal adhesions may occur, affecting future surgical operations. Patients who have not responded to regular non-surgical treatment for 6 months, those with severe recurrent symptoms, those with sudden lumbar disc herniation and severe radicular pain that cannot be relieved and continues to worsen, and those with lumbar disc herniation combined with loss of nerve root function or cauda equina dysfunction should receive surgical treatment.

If there is no leg numbness or pain, lumbar facet joint derangement syndrome, also known as facet joint synovial incarceration, is more likely. It is mostly caused by mild acute lumbar sprain or bending over and standing up suddenly, which causes the synovium to be embedded between the facet joints, causing facet joint locking or dislocation, and restricting spinal movement. Immediately after the injury, the patient experiences unusually severe pain that is unbearable and suffers from an abnormally bent waist posture. The disease is mainly characterized by low back pain, with less symptoms of nerve root irritation.

I believe you should now know what disease sudden pain in the waist is. Although many diseases may cause sudden pain in the waist, as long as we can take corresponding countermeasures in time and actively receive treatment, we can get rid of the sudden pain in the waist as soon as possible. It is also recommended that friends can pay attention to exercising their waist in daily life to prevent the occurrence of diseases.
