At two o’clock in the morning on April 22, “Sister of the Immortal” Liu Yifei updated a post on Weibo, and the accompanying text said: “Thank you, Director Feng, and hope to be a good guy as soon as possible.”
This time, she did not show her beautiful photos, but showed a photo of a long needle inserted in the cervical spine, and her neck was obviously red and swollen, which looked very distressing.
After seeing the hot search, Deputy Chief Physician Shi Yan of the Department of Acupuncture and Tuina, Hangzhou First People’s Hospital, immediately judged that Liu Yifei should use acupuncture and moxibustion to treat cervical spine problems “two-pronged”.
Liu Yifei is just 34 years old this year. Old fans know that as early as 2005 when filming “The Legend of Condor Heroes”, Liu Yifei suffered from serious cervical spine problems due to injuries from filming.
When she was only 17 years old, the cervical spine was misaligned due to excessive suspension of Wia when filming.
There are also careful netizens who mentioned that Liu Yifei always wore a shawl when he appeared in front of the public, and I don’t know if the old disease has relapsed. Everyone comforted Liu Yifei in the comment area and hoped that she would take good care of herself.
If the human body is compared to a company, and all the organs of the body are compared to the company’s employees, then the cervical spine must be one of the employees with the longest working hours, the most stress, and the worst pay.
Long-term bowed heads, wrong sitting postures, sleeping with pillows or no pillows, reading books or TV in lying position…The accumulation of bad habits has caused more and more young people to be “entangled” by cervical spondylosis.
“Head down family” has become the “main force” of cervical spondylosis
Like most urbanites in modern times, the 23-year-old Xiao Li (a pseudonym) is a veritable “head bower”.
During the day, Xiao Li works at the desk, with a computer on his head up, a keyboard and a mobile phone on his head down, and he is caught in an endless loop of head up and down every day.
Even in just one hour of lunch, he wouldn’t let his cervical spine rest for a while: standing in line to buy food and looking down at the phone, waiting for the meal and looking down at the phone, walking on the road and looking down at the phone. Even on the crowded subway, I always kept looking down at my phone, and occasionally looked up at the location of the following car, and then “worked hard” again.
When he returned home, Xiao Li’s eyes were “sticked” to the small screen. He did not forget to catch up with the hit dramas after eating. After dinner, he continued to lie down on the sofa while watching TV and playing on his mobile phone. He even lay down on the bed to accompany him. He was still asleep with his cell phone.
In the past month, Xiao Li always felt dizzy and dizzy when he moved his neck. At first, he didn’t pay much attention to it. Later, after feeling nausea and nausea, he asked for leave to go to the hospital.
After he went to the Department of Neurology, Department of Otorhinolaryngology and Department of Orthopedics successively, he was finally diagnosed with cervical vertigo caused by cervical spondylosis, and the X-ray film showed that Xiao Li’s cervical spine arch was obvious.
After being introduced, Xiao Li came to the Deputy Chief Physician Shi Yan of the No. 1 Hospital of the city to consult about acupuncture and moxibustion treatment.
Cervical spondylosis is the dominant disease in acupuncture treatment
Shi Yan introduced that cervical vertigo mostly occurs in middle-aged people, but there is a trend of younger people. Now the number of patients under 30 is significantly increasing. Office people like Xiao Li who work at the desk for a long time often play with mobile phones, which leads to a long time in the cervical spine. In an anti-physiological state, the final result is chronic strain and degeneration of the cervical spine, which causes cervical vertigo.
Because the cause is clear, the treatment of the primary disease is extremely important.
“Cervical spondylosis is a common disease in our acupuncture and massage department, and it is also one of the dominant diseases in acupuncture treatment.” Shi Yan said, “Through acupuncture, it can help dredge the meridians to achieve both internal and external healing effects, thereby alleviating cervical pain, numbness and other symptoms. ”
Shi Yan further explained that because cervical spondylosis has different clinical types, the methods and effects of acupuncture treatment are also different. Acupuncture is particularly good at radiculopathy. Generally speaking, 5-10 times is a course of treatment. Most patients will improve their symptoms after one course of treatment, and those with more severe illness may need 2-3 courses of treatment. However, if it is accompanied by spinal stenosis or spinal cord compression, other treatments are required.
Do these points to avoid recurrence of cervical spondylosis
Shi Yan reminded that after acupuncture treatment has relieved the clinical symptoms of cervical spondylosis, it is also necessary to correct daily bad postures and strengthen neck functional exercises to avoid recurrence of the disease.
- Avoid long-term bowing, reading and watching TV without lying in bed, and master the correct writing posture; workers who face the computer for a long time, it is recommended to raise the computer monitor, lower the seat, try to look up or slightly look up at the screen, there should be 5 per hour. 10 minutes rest time;
The pillow should not be too high, generally 10-15 cm is appropriate. Specific reference should also be made to personal circumstances, such as the physiological curvature of the neck, sleeping habits, etc.;
Actively participate in sports exercises, such as badminton, basketball, swimming, kite flying, etc. These exercises have a good auxiliary treatment effect on the natural curvature of the cervical spine, and at the same time can improve the blood supply of the cervical spine and prevent and delay the degeneration of the cervical spine. Age of onset.
Finally, for everyone, Amway’s “Cleansing Osteopathy” to strengthen the cervical spine:
Stand with feet shoulder-width apart and hold hollow fists with both hands;
Put one hand from the side of the body to the back, and try to go from the bottom up to the neck as much as possible;
Come over with the other hand from the side of the head and put it behind the ear, turn the head to the opposite side, and then force it to the back to fight against the hand for 5 seconds, then switch to the opposite side;
Repeat and alternately perform about 10-20 times as a group, and you can do it twice a day, 1-2 groups each time, the operator must do what he can and must not force it;
This action can be used to stretch the muscles and bones of the shoulders, neck and back.
