Liu, who loves to sit but doesn't like to move, suffered from back pain two years ago. He thought it was just a minor lumbar muscle strain, but after two years of treatment, it got worse and worse. It turned out to be a disease called pelvic rotation. Making trouble. Experts remind that if lumbar muscle strain is not healed for a long time, it is likely to be complicated by pelvic rotation. Patients should actively exercise and receive treatment when they first discover lumbar muscle strain to avoid developing pelvic rotation and making treatment difficult. Lao Liu is 20 years old and works as a clerk in a company. He often sits in front of the computer for several hours and does not like to exercise. Two years ago, Lao Liu suddenly suffered from low back pain. He didn't pay much attention at first. It wasn't until the pain became unbearable that he went to see a doctor. After looking at the X-ray of his waist, the doctor diagnosed him with lumbar muscle strain and prescribed medicine and waist physiotherapy. The low back pain did subside at the beginning, but soon it gradually worsened and pain in the right buttock appeared. The pain has seriously affected Lao Liu's life. Lao Liu only feels pain in his waist and right hip all day long. The pain becomes unbearable when he sits or stands for a long time, and sometimes he even wakes up from the pain in his sleep. In the past two years, Lao Liu has been to several hospitals, but he was diagnosed with lumbar muscle strain all the time, and the results were not satisfactory. Later, at the Millennium Huo Gu Gao Bone Disease Rehabilitation Center, the doctor asked Liu about his medical history and performed a lumbar and pelvic examination. He found that his pelvis was a little asymmetrical, with long and short legs, which is also the phenomenon of pelvic rotation. After Lao Liu used Millennium Huogu Ointment, his back pain and hip pain were basically relieved. Lao Liu then went home and exercised by himself. After a few months, Lao Liu's back pain and hip pain did not recur.
Director Cai, an orthopedic expert at Millennium Live Bone Cream, said that low back pain caused by lumbar muscle strain is often regarded as a minor problem and ignored by people. However, if lumbar muscle strain is not treated and exercised correctly in time, it is likely to cause pelvic rotation. The low back pain is very stubborn and difficult to treat, and pain may also occur in other parts of the body, such as the buttocks. Treatment is much more difficult than simple lumbar muscle strain.
It is understood that the pelvis is composed of the sacrococcygeal bone and two hip bones (which are formed by the fusion of the ilium, ischium and pubic bone). It is the base of the trunk. The pelvis is maintained by surrounding muscles and ligaments, making it a stable system. Director Cai said that once the waist and hip muscles and their fascia or ligaments are strained, it may destroy the stability of the pelvic system, causing the pelvis to rotate and cause symptoms. Long and short legs or yin and yang feet can be found during examination. The pelvic rotation will pull the waist and hip muscles, resulting in more serious waist and hip muscle strain, forming a vicious cycle and making the pain very stubborn.
Director Cai reminded that the symptoms of lumbar muscle strain accompanied by pelvic rotation are not significantly different from those of simple lumbar muscle strain, and they both manifest as low back pain and hip pain. Severe pelvic rotation will aggravate the pain symptoms and be very stubborn and difficult to treat, causing not only great physical pain but also heavy psychological pressure to the patient. Director Cai reminded that whether it is a simple lumbar muscle strain or pelvic rotation, early treatment will have better results. Therefore, once you find low back pain, in addition to taking care of yourself, you should seek timely examination and treatment from a professional doctor. If low back pain persists for a long time, you should be alert to pelvic rotation.
To prevent pelvic rotation, we must try to avoid lumbar muscle strain. Lumbar muscle strain is a common clinical disease, which mostly occurs in people who are sedentary and lack exercise. Director Cai suggested that patients with lumbar muscle strain should first change their living habits. Sitting, playing mahjong or using computers for a long time may cause lumbar muscle strain, and they should avoid maintaining the same posture for a long time. Obese people are also at risk of lumbar muscle strain due to the large pressure on their waists. It is best to lose weight and maintain an appropriate weight. In addition, wearing high heels may also cause lumbar muscle strain. Director Cai said that when wearing high heels, a person's center of gravity moves forward. In order to maintain balance, the spinal muscles, including the lumbar muscles, are in a state of tension, which can easily cause lumbar muscle strain in the long term. Director Cai suggested that sleeping on a hard wooden bed with a layer of quilt on top can prevent lumbar muscle strain. In addition, it is best for older people to squat down when picking things up. Bending over to pick things up can easily cause the recurrence or aggravation of low back pain. The same goes for bending over to carry things.
Director Cai suggested that swimming is a good way to exercise the psoas muscles and has a good preventive or auxiliary therapeutic effect. Patients with lumbar muscle strain and pelvic rotation can best use swimming as an auxiliary treatment. Generally speaking, patients should swim once a day for up to 1 minute each time, and breaststroke is the best posture. If patients do not have enough conditions to swim regularly, patients can also do some waist-strengthening exercises at home. For example, lie flat on your back and lift one or both legs at an angle of . Or lie flat on your back with your legs bent against the ground, forming an arch bridge shape. Or lie prone and lift your arms back, in the flying swallow pose. These three movements should be held for seconds and times each time, once in the morning and once before going to bed at night, which can exercise the iliopsoas muscles. People without the disease can also prevent lumbar muscle strain and pelvic rotation through swimming and these exercises. However, it should be noted that some health exercises for exercising the psoas muscles have many movements, which may look good, but are often difficult to adhere to. In fact, you only need to choose three or four movements during exercise. The key is to persevere.
