Lumbar hyperplasia is a very common orthopedic disease. The general cause of the disease is the growth of lumbar intervertebral disc, long-term fatigue or ligament sprain, which causes pain. Most patients with lumbar hyperplasia are bedridden. Severe cases can cause waist stiffness, fatigue, and even numbness and pain when bending or squatting. We can also relieve it through exercise. So how to exercise for lumbar hyperplasia? There are two causes of lumbar bone hyperplasia. One is primary, which is due to aging and long-term fatigue, leading to degenerative changes in bones and joints, ligament relaxation, decreased muscle strength, affected joint stability, and bone spurs formed around the joints, causing arthritis. The second is secondary, which is mostly caused by joint trauma, developmental deformity, etc., which lead to uneven joint surfaces and uneven force. Young people nowadays are prone to cervical bone hyperplasia due to long hours of sitting or bending over a desk for work. Clinical manifestations of lumbar vertebrae hyperosteogeny: The most common sites of occurrence are L3 and L4. Clinically, symptoms such as soreness, distension, stiffness, fatigue in the lumbar spine and lumbar soft tissues, and even limited bending ability are common. If the adjacent nerve roots are compressed, it may cause corresponding symptoms, such as local pain, stiffness, posterior root neuralgia, numbness, etc. Compression of the sciatic nerve can cause sciatica, which can cause severe numbness, burning pain, cramping pain, and stringy pain in the affected limb, radiating to the entire lower limb. Development and classification of lumbar vertebrae osteophyte lesions: (1) In terms of time, lumbar vertebrae bone hyperplasia can be divided into three stages. The first stage is the hidden stage, during which the hyperplasia has actually appeared and the thickness or length of the hyperplasia is only about 1 to 2 mm. At this time, it does not affect people's activities, and they have no self-perception, or even if they feel a little, it does not manifest as obvious symptoms. Therefore, it generally does not attract people's attention during the latent period. This stage lasts about 1 to 2 years. The second stage is the obvious stage, when the length of bone hyperplasia exceeds 5 mm and has a significant impact on human activities. When the left intervertebral disc hyperplasia occurs, the body tilts and bends to the left, causing soreness, pain, and numbness in the left limbs. The same is true in reverse. Some people may experience symptoms even when they are in a normal position, which indicates that a nerve is under long-term compression. If this stage is not fundamentally treated, the patient may suffer from long-term pain and even affect his or her normal life activities. This stage can last for many years and even enter the third stage. However, if you are not careful in life, it will bring effects to your body. The length of the hyperplasia is mostly more than 5 mm, which has an obvious impact on human activities. You can usually reduce the pain by twisting the affected area, exercising, and slightly massaging. Appropriate exercise can prevent lumbar hyperplasia. |
