What's wrong with the fat guy! Be careful of lumbar disc herniation if you are too obese

Lumbar disc herniation is a common lumbar disease, which can be caused by various factors. After the onset of this disease, the systemic symptoms are also significant. Many people occasionally experience lower back and hip pain, thinking it is caused by excessive fatigue, but little do they know that this may be due to lumbar spine disease.

Be careful of lumbar disc herniation if you are too obese.

People who are too fat or too thin are prone to lumbar disc herniation. Many overweight people have too much adipose tissue and too little muscle content in their bodies. The increase in abdominal fat can lead to lumbar burden and increase the risk of lumbar disc herniation. But if the body is too weak and the proportion of muscles is relatively small, it can also easily lead to lumbar disc herniation. The muscle tissue of the waist and hips is the most common part of body strain, and the tissue of the waist and hips can support the upper limbs and head, making the upper limbs stable and active, and performing various bearing functions. The waist and hips are the intersection of pressure. For the entire body, being too light or too heavy is not good for the lumbar spine. So, what are the causes of lumbar disc herniation?

1. Lesions of the lumbar intervertebral disc

insufficient blood supply and slow metabolism of the intervertebral disc can easily cause compression, leading to the gradual aging of the disc and the easy rupture of the fibrous ring, resulting in lumbar disc herniation.

2. Drivers are prone to lumbar disc herniation in long-term shaking environments. The main reason is that the driver maintains a sitting position for a long time and the lumbar bumps are relatively strong, causing great pressure on the lumbar spine and leading to degenerative changes in the lumbar spine. At the same time, vibration can also have a certain degree of impact on the lumbar spine, causing damage to both the lumbar spine and blood vessels, leading to lumbar disc herniation.

3. Excessive load on the waist

When our waist is overloaded, the weight of the lumbar spine exceeds 100000 Pa/cm2, and long-term bending can cause lumbar disc herniation. Lumbar disc herniation is more common in occupations with high labor intensity. So far, employees, textile workers, students, drivers, editors, and other people who are often in fixed positions are prone to lumbar muscle damage, leading to lumbar disc herniation.

4. Bad Lifestyle Habits

In daily life, friends must avoid bad habits that cause lower back injuries and sudden external injuries to the lower back. Only in this way can symptoms of lower back pain be avoided and cervical spondylosis be effectively prevented.
