RIGHT TREATMENT FOR BACKACHE

Dear friends,

Today is 19th, it is a sunny day.

-

As you may know that I have been suffering from severe backache for a long period, a person who suffering from a severe pain in back will never feel happy working, eating or doing any other day-to-day work. To minimize the pain in my back, I relied on the traditional treatment (Herbal) in the beginning but it did not work very well to my backache in the end, and it cost me a great number of money for 10 - 12 times of herbal curing.

-

The people said, backache to all men is a great problem, and it makes the patient to be painful at the level of 9 (Remark: Childbearing at 10th level,生仔是十級). and furthermore a long long tail will follow the patient over a life. Fortunately, a tunning point changed my life and led me to the doctor after I had met a taxi driver during the way I rushed to take the traditional treatment. The taxi driver advised me against choosing the wrong curing as a right way will treat the backache. If opting for the right curing, the backache would not aggrevate and be treated properly....he stressed.

-

Also, that driver also taught me to go to swimming pool every day and to choose the physical treatment (he said, physical treatment was a right way to treat my back pain).

To get rid of my backache, I went to the X-ray center for a thorough check, the film showing the aged bones in the spinal column were wore off and formed sharp edge (see arrows) is listed in Picture 1 above, the aging was due to my unhealthy lifestyle in the past twenty years, the doctor told me that back is a composition of muscles, bones and elastic tissues, the gap in between the bones in the spinal column contains some soft and elastic tissues, the function of these tissues is like a protective pad to prevent heavy pressure and vibration from directly being added by the half-top body.

-

Physical talking, it should be impossible to safely support the load when the pad is aged. With passage of time, the clearance in between the bones will be smaller than its orginal form. Gradually, the affected bones will be touching and wearing with each other until a painful signal brings you into a great attention.

-

I have been suffering from acute pain in the lower and middle portion of my back for a long time (not less than 1.5 months), the pain made me roll from side to side of my chair at the first week, I could then neither sit nor work in front of my computer desk. Such kind of pain in back may attribute to my unhealthy lifestyle, for example an improper posture while lifting heavy objects in my youthful time, and continusous sitting long hours in a same posture when working at office or at home. Tracing back to the wrong-doing from my past few years, I was sitting on a chair with no support over a lasting period of 5-6 hours... and sometime til to mid-night for chasing the deadlines of assignments, project reports.. and presentation materials.

-

In order to have an improvement, I changed a chair with supporting base, and put a soft pad on the chair. Also I will try to walk a little after sitting continuously for 1 - 1.5 hours. Swimming, walking and keeping on diet are also a good way to care for the back. I searched some effective ways on the internet, those remedies are simple and easy to follow..Yes! it works well very much to me!
