On the 29th of Tet, after the couple went to Tet market, they bought a peach tree. Gleefully brought out the peaches to pour out the soil and then Mr. Tuan carried the pots and put them in the house. Due to the small peach pot, he was subjective.

When just stooped, trying hard to hold the pelvis, I heard a cracking sound in the back, from which the entire spine was throbbing, the lower limbs were numb. Mr. Tuan could not sit up but lay on the floor, at that time the feeling of turning was also difficult. Burning skin, feeling like there are thousands or thousands of needles piercing the skin.

His family rushed to the hospital but could not sit, so they called an ambulance to carry a stretcher to the hospital. After pain relief treatment, the doctor reported that he had an acute disc herniation. Hearing disc herniation afraid of affecting the ability to walk later, Mr. Tuan and his wife rushed to Hanoi for treatment. After Tet, the acute stage was over, but because the herniation was too large, the doctor decided to operate.

Not only Mr. Tuan, who is receiving rehabilitation treatment due to herniated disc, Nguyen Thuy Dieu (31 years old, Cau Giay, Hanoi) is also struggling with this disease. Last year, Mrs. Dieu said that when she washed the blankets, when she lifted the blanket to put it in the washing machine, she felt a sharp pain in her back. Then the pain gets worse and worse, standing up straight is also difficult. Ms. Dieu goes for pain relief treatment and is still suffering because her back is so painful, walking is also suffering.

Many bad habits young people have

Master, doctor Tran Quoc Khanh – Vietnam Duc Friendship Hospital Hanoi, said disc herniation is one of the most common spinal diseases today and tends to be more and more rejuvenated. In particular, young people are subjective with their own spine, there are many bad habits that affect it.

According to Master Khanh, most young people are admitted to the hospital after suddenly lifting heavy loads such as carrying containers and pot plants. When calves need to lift slowly, people often have a habit of bending over and lifting suddenly causing acute disc herniation. There are many patients who have to lie down in one place after calving the pot, their back and right leg down for emergency surgery.

In the case of a patient like Mr. Tuan, when the hernia is performed after sudden exertion, the hernia block is very large, so the patient has to operate early to avoid limb atrophy.

Occupations such as nail care, driving, watch repair are jobs where people often have spinal problems, including disc herniation.

In addition, some people gain excess weight, the heaviest pressure on the disc is the back when bending, arching, twisting, and jumping, so it is easy to have disc herniation.

Vietnamese people are fat pear shaped (belly fat), focus on forward, so the right spine arched forward is also the cause of disc herniation.

Bad habits in life are also prone to disc herniation such as smoking, sitting for a long time. Sitting at work for long periods of time, continuously crouching the disc in the damaged back and herniation easier than others.

When there are signs of pain in the spine, in the neck, the pain spreads to the shoulder, back, the thoracic spine … lasts about 1 week, the patient needs to be examined. If disc herniation is not treated in time, the patient can only lie still, unable to sit up or is paralyzed, disabled for life.

Therefore, whenever the above symptoms appear, people need to go to specialized medical facilities soon for early examination and treatment.

To prevent disc herniation, when carrying, should not exert effort. Spine can be moved before carrying heavy objects, calf in a straight-back position without stooping, those with a history of back pain should give up the habit of carrying something.
