There is a protrusion under the chest of the human spine

The spine is an important part of the human skeleton and is extremely important for a person's normal ability to move. If there is a protrusion on the cervical vertebrae, it may be a symptom caused by spinal disease. Spinal disease is a disease closely related to bone hyperplasia and can also cause many adverse effects on the human body. Below, we will introduce the relevant knowledge about spinal diseases in detail.

1. Symptoms and Signs

Spinal disease is closely related to bone hyperplasia. Bone hyperplasia is also known as bone spurs. People often think that it is a "bad thing", but in fact, these understandings are somewhat biased. The formation of bone spurs is a compensatory function of the human body. The hypertrophic bone spurs limit the range of motion of the bone joints, thereby reducing joint wear and preventing new injuries caused by excessive joint movement. This objectively plays a role in protecting the joints and is beneficial to the human body. However, the formation of bone hyperplasia causes bone and joint pain and limited movement. A small number of patients may experience pathological symptoms caused by compression of surrounding blood vessels or nerves, which is called bone hyperplasia. This is not good for the human body.

Bone hyperplasia mainly occurs in the joints of the human body that bear more weight and move more, such as the cervical vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, hip joints, knee joints and heels, with the cervical vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae and knee joints being the most common. The development of spinal disease is gradually getting worse. For example, in the case of cervical spondylosis, the patient's initial symptoms are not obvious, and there are only cervical muscle injuries, myofasciitis, small joint disorders, etc. It gradually causes the intervertebral disc to bulge, and symptoms such as neck and shoulder pain, headache, dizziness, numbness of hands and feet, memory loss, and "half of the body sweating and the other half dry" appear. Cervical spondylosis can cause insufficient blood supply to the brain, resulting in "cervical stomach syndrome" and "cervical heart syndrome". In severe cases, the patient may lose the ability to work.

2. Treatment Methods

1. The most important methods for treating cervical spondylosis are traction and immobilization, and there are also some emergency and auxiliary treatments.

2. Stagnation. That is, keep the neck immobile to reduce the load on the cervical spine. This method can effectively relieve pain during the acute attack period of cervical spondylosis and severe pain. Wearing a neck brace when necessary can not only play a therapeutic role for patients, but also prevent recurrence for patients whose clinical symptoms have disappeared.

3. Dehydration drug treatment. This is relative to more seriously ill patients, such as those who cannot sleep due to the pain.

4. Acupuncture, massage, blockade, etc.

5. Chiropractic treatment of spinal diseases

3. Preventive Care

1. Adopt the correct working posture, especially those who work in the same posture for a long time should pay attention to appropriate activities.

2. Use reasonable bedding that meets health requirements. Poor bedding is the root cause of many spinal diseases.

3. Correct sleeping posture.

4. Prevent excessive fatigue.

5. Prevent the invasion of wind, cold and dampness.

6. Strengthen exercise, especially activities of the neck and waist.
