Treatment of lumbar muscle strain

Farmers who bend over to work in the fields for a long time usually feel back pain. In severe cases, they cannot even straighten their backs, causing difficulty in movement. In fact, this is a sign of lumbar muscle strain. Lumbar muscle strain is mainly caused by long-term bending over or incorrect sitting posture, which makes the waist muscles over-tired and produces a large amount of lactic acid, but the metabolic substances cannot be cleared away. Therefore, we will feel a burning pain.

When lumbar muscle strain occurs acutely, you will be unable to stand up or walk. The most primitive method is to apply a plaster, but later people found that the effect of applying a plaster is not obvious. Later, experts focused on solutions for lumbar muscle strain and discovered that surgery could be used to treat the pain.

Chronic lumbar muscle strain is a general term for soft tissue pain in the waist or lumbosacral region. It is both a symptom of multiple diseases and an independent disease. It manifests as pain on one side, both sides, or in the middle of the waist, which may be mild or severe and recurs repeatedly. It is aggravated by sitting for a long time or weather changes. Over time, it can cause muscle fiber degeneration.

The main symptom of chronic lumbar muscle strain is recurrent pain in the waist or lumbosacral region. The pain may vary with climate change or degree of fatigue, and may be mild or severe at times and may not heal. There may be widespread tenderness in the lower back, and there is usually no abnormality in spinal movement. Therefore, if you find a similar situation, you should seek medical attention in time, make a clear diagnosis, rule out the possibility of other factors, and conduct a careful examination to prevent missed diagnosis and delay in the disease. Some patients blindly receive treatment without a correct diagnosis, thus losing the best time for treatment. Timely, regular and effective treatment after diagnosis is crucial. There are many methods for treating lumbar muscle strain clinically, such as physical therapy, drug therapy, traction, massage, etc. Both can play a role, but the key to the treatment of lumbar muscle strain is persistence.

Among the above methods, the most commonly used and easiest to stick to is physical therapy. The most common one is the Jinzhukang belt, which has the effects of heat therapy, magnetic therapy and traction fixation. Persistent use can achieve the effects of dredging blood vessels, relieving inflammation and pain, promoting effective blood circulation in the waist muscles, blood oxygen exchange saturation, preventing the waist muscles from changing into fibrosis, and can truly strengthen the waist muscles and restore the protective effect of the waist muscles and surrounding ligaments on the lumbar spine. Thereby effectively treating the disease. In addition, functional exercise and daily rehabilitation and health care are also very important. During the treatment of lumbar muscle strain and subsequent rehabilitation treatment, you should do less high-intensity physical activities that use waist strength, and even local temporary braking. The purpose is to relieve pain, eliminate lumbar muscle fatigue and fix the lumbar spine as much as possible to avoid lumbar bone hyperplasia. However, this method is likely to cause loss of function, lumbar muscle atrophy, and induce other lesions. It is generally advocated that treatment and functional exercise be carried out at the same time to avoid post-healing complications. Correct functional activities can speed up the absorption of effusion. Post-rehabilitation health care is crucial. If the above aspects are achieved, chronic lumbar muscle strain can be completely cured.

Lumbar muscle strain is not a disease that can be cured quickly. Regular physical therapy is very important, and drug treatment can only relieve pain. However, doctors only recommend surgery when all other methods have failed. Therefore, it is very important to develop good habits in daily life. You should maintain correct sitting posture at all times and combine work and rest. I believe that lumbar muscle strain will stay away from you.
