안녕하세요 여러분!
한파로 인해 추위가 어마어마하게 불어닥치는 요즘,
허리통증과 관련된 두번째 이야기 궁금하지 않으셨나요?
오늘은 그 두번째!
흔히 '허리디스크'라고 하는 '추간판 탈출증'에 대해
함께 알아보는 시간을 가지려고 해요.
'허리디스크', 즉 '추간판 탈출증'은
척추를 구성하는 각 척추뼈 사이에 있는
추간판이 탈출해 신경을 누르는 질환을 말합니다.
추간판 탈출증의 증상은?
1. 심한 허리통증
2. 다리 통증
응? 다리통증???
네, 다리로 향하는 신경이 압박을 받으면서
다리가 아프고 저려오게 됩니다.
이걸 '방사통'이라고 해요
통증은 오랫동안 앉거나 서있을 때 악화되는 경향이 있어요!
그렇다면 추간판 탈출증(허리디스크)의 원인은?
체중 과부하, 잘못된 자세, 나이 등 여러 요인에 의해 발생할 수 있어요.
따라서, 건강한 체중 유지, 올바른 자세 유지, 그리고 꾸준한 운동이
추간판 탈출증 예방에 중요해요.
추간판 탈출증의 치료 방법은 환자의 증상 정도와
전반적인 건강 상태에 따라 다르지요.
보존적 치료와 수술적 치료가 있으며,
초기 단계에서는 약물 치료와 물리 치료 등의
보존적 치료법이 효과적이랍니다.
허리강화 운동. 다함께 따라해볼까요?
감사합니다.
