Symptoms of degenerative cervical vertebrae and home remedies

Symptoms and treatments for cervical spinal tumors at home are based on self-healing. The method includes precise manipulation of the patient and supports the self-regulating and self-healing functions of the body to restore nerve and blood vessel disorders in the cervical region.

Cervical bone necrosis

In non-severe and non-severe cases, patients can naturally relieve spinal pain, muscle spasms, dizziness and other symptoms of cervical tumors spontaneously without the use of medication. However, in order to do this it is necessary to know well the structure and natural purpose of the spine and remember that our bodies are a self-healing system that exists according to certain laws of the Universe.

The role of the spine

Before considering the topic: "Neck spine tumors, symptoms and home remedies", it makes sense to ask the question: "What role does the spine play in our lives? "

The spine is our skeleton. The head, body, upper and lower limbs are supported on it. In other words, it is the spine that gives our body the shape we normally see.

Attached to the spine are strong connective tissue ligaments and many large and small muscles that help keep our bodies upright, and important internal organs in certain locations along the spine. .

The normal functions of the internal organs and all body tissues are provided by a large number of nerve fibers through the transmission of nerve impulses from the lateral parts of the spinal cord.

The spinal cord resides in a flexible, well-protected "sheath" of the spinal canal from external influences. The spinal nerve roots emerge through the intervertebral drives of the vertebrae. In the original part, they are covered by the plate and the skeletal structure. The disc consists of upper and lower cartilage discs, fibrous and medullary. The thickness of the disc in the cervical vertebrae is very small - only 4 mm.

Causes of cervical bone necrosis

An intact, healthy disc acts as a shock absorber for various loads on the spine (compression, stretching). If due to sudden movement, excessive loading, lying in the wrong position for a long time, spinal injury or inflammatory process, damaged disc, the compressed vertebral artery will pass through the opening of the vertebra andNerve tangles leave the spinal cord.

The amount of electrical impulses going from the spinal cord to organs and tissues decreases, metabolism slows down. This becomes the cause of the disease of some organs, as well as the cause of the aging of the body.

Symptoms

This is what explains many symptoms of necrosis of the spine of the neck, including pain in the neck, back of the head, shoulders, heart, liver, and neck stiffness, back of head, weakness in arms, legs, and tangles. vascular disorders.

Manifestations of the disease depend on the location of the disc damage and displacement of the vertebrae, as well as on the area that is pinched by the plexus.

So the health of our bodies depends on the health of our spine.

Self-healing treatment

Just wanted to warn you that the diagnosis of cervical bone tumors is made by a neurologist or orthopedic doctor based on the results of a comprehensive physical exam.

When the diagnosis is confirmed and there is no acute phase with swelling and inflammation at the site of the disc injury, self-healing can be applied.

The essence of the method:

  • in the correct actions of the patient, aimed at eliminating the cause of the symptoms of osteonecrosis - compression, displacement of the nerve and vascular structure of the spinal cord involveddestructive changes in the disc;
  • in assisting with self-regulating, self-healing bodily functions to restore nerve and vascular disorders in the cervical region.

How to treat fibroids of the neck, independent impact on the cause of the disease, you can find and read in the article of the same name.

The cause of the disease cannot be eliminated - disc deformation, however, you can learn to relax the cervical spine and gently stretch the cervical vertebrae to reduce the pressure on nerve roots and blood vessels, thereby alleviating the symptoms of compression.

Self-healing requires individual desire, perseverance, self-discipline and a willingness to gradually change positions, taking care of your spine, relaxing and stretching your neck every morning and evening, and develop your own cervical vertebra degenerative treatment system.

At the same time, always remember that your body is a highly organized self-healing system that lives by the laws of nature. Failures in it happen when you violate these laws, no matter why, because of lack of understanding or unwillingness to comply.

Principle of the method

Before attempting self-healing with therapeutic exercises, it is important to note some natural principles of this approach.

  1. It is known that to stretch your muscles well, you first need to stretch. Therefore, many therapeutic exercises are built by hand therapists based on the principle of stretching - spasmodilation.
  2. Another principle is the physiological model of the combination of muscle tension and relaxation with the breathing stages. Breathing in is tense and exhaling is relaxing. If these principles are followed, the exercises performed will contribute to the normal functioning of the circulatory system, and will not disrupt the regulation of nerve processes.

Personal Self-Recovery System

First, I will share about my own cervical fibroids self-healing system.

In addition to the exercises of "turtle" and shoulder nape relaxation, sitting ("How to treat cervical degeneration"), not only helps relax the muscles in the neck and shoulders, but also awakens the healing powers ofbody, normalizing the energy supply to all cells and organs, I used one more pose - relax the neck muscles.

However, I want to warn you of caution when doing this pose! Remember - in the cervical spine are the vertebral arteries and nerve tangles going to the brain!

Since in my case, the disc of the 5th, 6th, and 7th cervical vertebrae is deformed, so in case of neck pain and tension, as well as headache, tinnitus, I do the following:

  • I lay on my back, on the bed, head towards the end of my legs (no back). I slowly lowered my head as I exhaled so that my seventh neck vertebrae lay on the edge of the mattress. As a result, my head is bent under its weight, my neck is arched and relaxed, my chin is pointing up. This hanging position should be short-term - only a few seconds from 5 to 10.

Feeling uncomfortable, or counting to 10, I slowly started to "crawl" on the bed while inhaling, without lifting the back of my head from the bed, holding it against the edge with my hand.

You must not suddenly raise your head from the "hanging" position!

Just one "crawl" of the head onto the bed and stretch the neck while releasing pinched blood vessels and nerves, relieving neck and head pain.

After this pose, you need to lie down in a relaxed state for a few minutes.

This stretching of the cervical vertebra helps correct defects of the lower cervical vertebra.

Reduces headache and other symptoms

If the symptoms are mainly severe headaches in the first half, sometimes accompanied by a feeling of nausea, this indicates a disturbance in the joints of the skull with the first cervical vertebra in place. exit of the occipital nerve is located in the first half of each side. Therefore, when the occipital nerve is pinched on one side, pain is on this side of the head.

Cardiovascular and respiratory disorders in the context of headache are observed due to invasion of nerve fibers that run from the spinal node of the 2nd cervical vertebra to the brain stem.

In the case of disturbances in the first and second vertebrae, therapeutic positions to relax muscles are also effective. Doctor of Medical Science, Professor and Honorary Doctor of the Russian Federation Anatoly Boleslavovich Sitel in the book "Solo for the Spine" suggested the following position to relieve headache.

  • Sit down in a relaxing chair. But at the same time, keep your torso straight. Tilt your head forward while exhaling so that it "hangs down" under the impact of its weight. So hold your head for about 10 seconds, then, while inhaling, raise and rest for half a minute. Repeat the exercise 10 times.

Light exercise

With degenerative cervical spondylolisthesis, symptoms and home remedies, you can use the following two gentle exercises to relax the neck spine muscles in case of spasms and pain.

  1. You need to sit on a chair, straighten your body. Put your hands on your knees. The legs are parallel to each other. Comfortable posture, calm breathing.

    Inhale and lower your head, touch the sternum with your chin, while pulling the back of your head up. Hold for a few seconds in this position. Then slowly exhale, lifting your head and shoulders. Do five to seven of these therapeutic exercises.

  2. The starting position for the second exercise is the same as in the first. From a sitting position, lie down, your body is on your legs, head on your knees. While breathing in, slowly raise your head, while exhaling, lower down. Repeat 5-7 times.

    During practice, the neck muscles will first stretch, then relax more easily and faster.

All exercises should be done slowly and smoothly, ie you should not do sudden movements, no rush, no tension or pain. As soon as you feel uncomfortable, stop exercising and try to relax and rest.

Spot remedies

Local funds

At home, in addition to therapeutic exercises to relax and stretch the neck spine, you can eliminate the tension and mild pain in the neck by massaging with hands or with the help ofmassage machines (after consulting a doctor), as well as local means - thermal procedures (steaming, rubbing, compressing the bath).

However, be aware that thermal procedures can be harmful in cases of severe pain and inflammation in the affected area of ​​the spine, as they increase arterial blood flow and slow the flow of the veins. vessels, therefore, they cause more severe symptoms, increasing pain and swelling of tissues.

For topical application on spasmodic muscles, the following freshly prepared solution is used: 15 ml of Dimexide, 15 ml of 0, 5-1% novocaine solution and 4-6 ml of 50% analgin solution are pouredin a cup with napkin dipped in 4 layers. The size of the napkin should correspond to the affected area.

Wet napkins are applied over appropriate area (alcohol pretreated skin), covered with cellophane and fixed. The procedure takes 1-1, 5 hours.

Compression is done daily for 4-6 days. If redness occurs, you should replace the gauze gauze with Dimexide with Dimexide ointment or ointment.

Adherence to a healthy diet is very important in the treatment of cervical bone tumors.

Precautions

Dear readers, remember that our body is a self-correcting biological system, wrong posture will signal pain or discomfort.

Take care of your spine! Don't jump out of bed! First, turn to the side and lean against your elbow, gently rise up.

Don't lift the dumbbells in front of you and don't hold it with one hand! It is better to carry loads with symmetrical loads in both hands (for women - no more than 5 kg each, men - no more than 12 kg each). And you need to lift the load, sit down a little bit.

Do not do housework or housework, bow upside down! Floor washing and bed weeding can be done on your knees or with the help of long tools.
