With lumbar disc herniation, it is recommended not to wear shoes with heels at ordinary times. High heels will aggravate and cause low back pain. It's the same with shoes, only pot calling the kettle black. Wear flat shoes. Conditional, can choose negative heel shoes, can correct posture, rather than walking backwards, is conducive to rehabilitation exercise. It is very important to correct the "foundation" of lumbar disc herniation (Popular Science News 201065438+1October 22nd Author: Wu Hua). Lumbar disc herniation is a common and frequently-occurring disease in contemporary society, and it is getting younger and younger, which seriously affects the work and life of patients. Posture problem is the cause of lumbar disc herniation, mostly because of long-term unreasonable posture. At first, it just means that the posture is incorrect and the local stress is excessive. After a long time, it will cause chronic soft tissue injury and form chronic low back pain such as lumbar muscle strain, so it is also called postural low back pain, and lumbar disc herniation is the result of further accumulation on this basis. Since posture is the cause, it is essential to correct posture whether it is conservative treatment or postoperative rehabilitation of lumbar disc herniation. Reasonable posture is the basis and premise of rehabilitation. Otherwise, the cause of the disease will not be solved, and it can only be repeated attacks, and the vicious circle will become heavier and heavier. Human posture is a mechanical whole, and the role of the center of gravity is very important. You can feel for yourself: stand in the most upright position, and the center of gravity must be at the heel; When you hunch over, your center of gravity will definitely move forward. From the anatomical structure of the foot, the thick and solid heel is the most suitable part for bearing weight, and it is also a unique symbol of human evolution. This is all the knowledge of the scientific community, so how to make the body's center of gravity move backwards is the core and principle of posture correction. At present, the best conservative treatment for lumbar disc herniation is reverse walking. Its essence is as a kind of reverse movement, which can effectively force the human body's center of gravity to move backward, thus correcting posture. At the same time, it is easy to explain why high heels can cause and aggravate the symptoms of low back pain, because its function is to force the body's center of gravity to move forward. From the perspective of human mechanics, shoes are equivalent to the foundation of a building. When the foundation leans forward, the center of gravity will inevitably move forward and the curvature of the spine will also increase. This is why high heels are called lumbar spine killers. Therefore, doctors will warn patients with disc herniation not to wear high heels, and patients will also pay attention. What needs special reminder here is that the heel shoes that are also counterproductive are ignored. The harm of shoes and high heels is only a quantitative difference. Heel shoes and high heels are inseparable transitional relations. The basic function of any high heel will lead to the forward movement of the center of gravity of the human body, which is harmful to the health of the lumbar spine. Some claims that middle heel shoes are good for health violate the most basic logic and do not come from the scientific community. On the contrary, as early as 2000, at the annual meeting of Foot and Ankle Surgery of Chinese Medical Association, there was a paper that comprehensively discussed the disadvantages of middle-heeled shoes, and thought that middle-heeled shoes were pseudoscience, which was strongly recommended and supported by Professor Chen Baoxing, a foot surgeon. It is said to be nontoxic. The problem of middle heel shoes is not terrible. Knowing it can be avoided. The terrible thing is that you don't know. Injury protection is even more terrible. Distinguishing between right and wrong, seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages is particularly important for the rehabilitation treatment of lumbar disc herniation. Many people change shoes with heels into flat shoes, and the symptoms of low back pain are obviously alleviated. The role of foundation is very important. Now that you understand the principle and function of foundation, you can turn harm into benefit by doing the reverse operation. You can do an experiment, lift your front foot, stand barefoot, step on a book with a thickness of 20 mm, so that the sole of your foot is higher than your heel, so that your body's center of gravity is forced to move backwards and your posture tends to be straight immediately. This method is simple, but very effective. This is the role of foundations. In the medical field, this method is used for the rehabilitation of postural low back pain, which is called "low back pain pedicure". Later, it was applied to the conservative treatment of lumbar disc herniation by more experts, called "posture adjustment method", which achieved good results and won provincial and ministerial science and technology awards. In the dance world, this is also the most commonly used method to correct posture. The backward movement of the center of gravity and the straight posture are strictly corresponding. The correction of foundation is the fundamental correction of human mechanical state. Posture correction lies in insisting on posture correction of patients with lumbar disc herniation. In addition to feasible methods, it takes some time to persist. In order to facilitate persistence, you can use orthopedic shoes, also known as negative heel shoes. Insisting on using it in daily life is equivalent to extending the posture correction of forcing the center of gravity to move backward to daily life, which can be used as a substitute for walking backwards, which is safer and more conducive to achieving better results. Similar products are more common in developed countries in Europe and America. It is the most popular in Japan, especially for patients with low back pain. ——————————————————————————— Further reading: Rectifying the foundation to save the Leaning Tower of Pisa, the famous Leaning Tower of Pisa, was saved by rectifying the foundation when it was on the verge of collapse. In order to prevent the leaning tower of Pisa from leaning to the south, experts extracted soil from the foundation on the north side, so that the foundation on the south side lifted relatively, forcing the center of gravity of the leaning tower to move in the opposite direction and return to a safe range. In the field of architecture, this method is called "foundation stress relief method", which is widely used to save endangered buildings and has played a great role.
