How to treat lower back pain, if you don't have time for a visit to the doctor? After all, we are very busy, we had a lot of work to do, we are always in a hurry and always late. And we have never had time to do the treatment seriously until, until we find ourselves in the car "first aid".
And yet we will tell you about the most common problems that cause such pain and methods for the treatment at home. But please note that no "folk" methods of treatment will save you from the countries in the development of the disease, and must continue to come together and to go to the doctor.
Hypothermia
This is perhaps the most common cause for pain in the back. Earn hypothermia is not difficult, it does not necessarily mean cold. Enough to work in a hot area, then wet it would go in the room where active air-conditioning. Hot body gets under a stream of cold air. The man becomes cold and in such conditions, but adjustment comes quickly enough. But the next day you start to experience back pain, becoming a problem to straighten up or get up, the pain is often constant and dull, and the movement becomes sharp. So fast and quiet you have earned hypothermia, or, more simply, "he blew back".
Methods for the treatment of pain with hypothermia
First, it makes sense to do in this situation is to warm up the back. This is the preferred ointment, which is easy to find in any pharmacy. Well, if the ointment at the site, we'll usually alcohol. RUB the back with alcohol, or ointment, and then wrap it with something warm scarf or a scarf, for example. This procedure should be done every day until the pain will pass, and when going outside have to dress warmly, paying special attention to the lower back.
If your back hurts, very much, it is best to go to the doctor. In this case, you may be prescribed injections, which will almost immediately remove or seriously undermine the pain. Usually they are different nsaids.
If the problem of hypothermia are important to you and experience it on a regular basis, then you will need a warming belt of sheep or dog hair, which can be found in almost any pharmacy. Waistband to wear under clothing every day, and because this is a thin and almost invisible.
Treatment UHT
Up to now, is treating the symptoms of pain in the back, with the help of shock wave therapy, are considered advanced methods in medical practice. UHT – treatment method, which allows you to go back to a working rhythm for 4-5 sessions. This processing mode is most popular among people who lead an active lifestyle and wish to get rid of the discomfort for a short time.
Lumbar backache
Very unpleasant pain that occurs when serious physical exertion, and then quickly pass. This happens, for example when you carry something heavy. A sharp pain in the lumbar region, which then goes up and disappears. As such, pain is a very short time, then forget this successfully. Then it is repeated under a load, and again held. In this case, it is useful to think of it, that something is not right. This pain is characteristic of sciatica, which in medicine is called "lumbago", and "cross".
Treatment of pain in the low back
The first patient with this pain, must be determined on a relatively hard surface. It would not be necessary to put a man down if the pillow your bed is fairly new, it is possible to lie down on the bed. For the relief of pain, you can drink the painkiller, which is available on the page.
Please note that the person with the pain strongly not to sit in a hot bath or try to "steam" in the bath will give the opposite desired effect.
The heat in this case, you will need to use dry or you can use one of the ointments from the pain in his back. It is important, however, that this ointment does not cause allergies, as it is in most cases the composition of these ointments aggressive. After this, the patient needs bed rest for a few days, and his diet you need to limit fluids and salt.
If the pain persists, you should call the doctor and get the full treatment – here half-measures will not do.
Disk hernia
In fact, this disease represents 2. phase of sciatica. Wait until this "nice" time is not difficult, if you ignore the pain that appear on 1. stage of the disease (short-term when carrying heavy loads and larger load). Hernia pain becomes constant and increases strongly at any movement, the easier it becomes only at rest (lying).
If you want more specific symptoms, a person with this disorder experience constant pain in the low back that radiates into the leg and increases with sudden movements. It is also possible to reduce the sensitivity or numbness in the lumbar region.
"Home" treatment for a herniated disc
To reduce pain do the following: ensure the patient is on bed rest and complete rest, after which give any pain medication that is at hand. And then you need to call your doctor. In the acute stage of a herniated in any of the popular treatment will only bring damage, pain will not go away from the "poultice" or "bells and whistles" that have to be addressed seriously and thoroughly.
As one of the additional ways to relieve the pain with movement – the use of a rigid lumbar corset that will not give you the ability to move the lumbar division of the spine. But it's not a cure, this corset weakens the back muscles that have to recover after physical therapy.
"Professional" pain in the back
This problem is typical for people with this type of work, which shows a low mobility or for a longer period, in unpleasant positions. This is cashiers, operators, computer, COMPUTER programmers, office workers, etc is not the best day, as people who have back pain, my muscles started to "whine", and this country is very long, taking a chronic. This is what is called "occupational diseases". The essence is simple – due to the low mobility and lack of loads of the muscles and the ligaments of the back are weakened, unable to keep back in normal position, quickly get tired. The result is not only pain but also posture.
Treatment of "occupational disease"
Because this disease is chronic in nature, and fast-acting method to relieve pain does not exist. Painkillers in this case there is no solution, because the pain will return as soon as the result of their performance and constantly "sit" on these drugs impossible.
The only effective method of treatment, in this case, therapeutic gymnastics, which gives you the ability to restore the normal condition of muscles and ligaments. But, I want to repeat myself, this is not a one-time treatment, such exercises need to deal with constantly.
It is also necessary to follow the correct posture. Not only at work but also in everyday life. It is also useful as a massage for a good specialist. Self massage in this case is not the best solution.
