According to Dr. Nikolai Mavrichev, rehabilitation specialist, the main cause of spinal hernia is excessive tension of the internal organs in the lumbar region.
The specialist said in an interview with Gazeta.Ru: “A hernia is the exit of part of the internal organs outside the boundaries of the cavity that they normally occupy. Since the muscles are attached to the vertebrae, pressure on them leads to the vertebrae getting closer to each other, which causes damage to the intervertebral disc, which “underneath “Pressure causes hernias, protrusions, and other problems due to deformation of the body. Among the symptoms of a hernia is distinct pain, which can be annoying or mild.”
According to him, stress can be caused by multiple different factors, including disruption of the functioning of internal organs. For example, when the kidneys, digestive system, and other internal organs do not carry out their functions, the muscles of the lumbar region become tense. For example, the presence of sand in the kidneys disrupts the blood supply, makes urination difficult, and hernias appear. Lifting a heavy load or physical trauma also leads to muscle weakness and thus the appearance of a hernia.
When a woman's body is not fully prepared for pregnancy, this may cause hernias to appear. Because the fetus puts pressure on the internal organs and the muscles become exhausted. Therefore, the muscles of the musculoskeletal system must be trained in advance so that they can cope with the task and increase body weight so that a hernia does not occur.
According to him, a person can diagnose a hernia himself based on several signs: sharp pain when standing; The pain moves to the extremities in the form of numbness and severe tingling in the extremities.
Determine the type of fat that increases the risk of dementia
The results of a scientific study showed that visceral fat that forms in middle age increases the incidence of brain infections, which increases the risk of Alzheimer's disease.
According to the study presented to the annual meeting of the Radiological Society of North America (RSNA), researchers studied data from 54 participants aged 40-60 years whose average body mass index (BMI) was 32. When this index is 24.9 and less than that, it indicates that the person He is not overweight or obese.
The researchers measured the volume of subcutaneous fat and visceral fat using MRI. In addition, for 32 patients, they used MRI and positron emission tomography to evaluate the thickness of the cerebral cortex and the presence of amyloid plaques and tau proteins associated with Alzheimer's disease.
It became clear to the researchers that a higher ratio of visceral fat to subcutaneous fat is associated with a greater accumulation of amyloid proteins, especially in men. They also noticed an increased level of inflammation in their brain. For your information, these changes in the brain occur on average at the age of 50 years, that is, 15 years before the early symptoms of memory loss in Alzheimer’s disease appear.
Based on these results, visceral fat, which surrounds the body's organs and is located in the abdominal cavity, may become a target for dementia prevention. In addition, the study highlights the importance of obesity prevention and the necessity of following an active lifestyle, and this includes young people as well.
These causes must not be overlooked.
