What kind of pillow is good for treating cervical spondylosis?
At present, there are many pillows for treating cervical spondylosis on the market, such as sleeping aid pillows, antibacterial mites-removing pillows, eyesight-improving and blood-pressure reducing pillows, biological strength pillows for protecting cervical vertebrae and adjusting sleeping posture, and stereotyped pillows specially designed for children. These pillows have a certain effect on treating cervical spondylosis.
Among many pillows for treating cervical spondylosis, which one is better? Bamboo charcoal is more and more widely used in life. Its powerful adsorption function makes it a practical and economical health care product and a pillow suitable for treating cervical spondylosis.
Bamboo charcoal has the super function of absorbing and radiating far infrared rays, which can absorb moisture, odor and harmful gases, keep the indoor air fresh and the bed dry. The far infrared rays released by bamboo charcoal can also directly penetrate the painful parts of cervical vertebra, remove blood stasis and relieve pain, promote blood circulation in the neck and eliminate cervical fatigue. Therefore, it is more effective to choose bamboo charcoal health pillow on the market to treat cervical spondylosis.
Bian Xiao reminded that although bamboo charcoal health pillow has a certain effect on treating cervical spondylosis, it is not enough to have only one pillow for treating cervical spondylosis. Still need to improve the sitting posture. While working hard, we should also do shoulder and neck exercises intermittently to relieve symptoms and pay attention to the combination of work and rest, so as to effectively prevent the recurrence of cervical spondylosis.
Use method of pillow for treating cervical spondylosis
The cervical vertebra clings to the cylindrical surface and is padded on the heel of the neck near the shoulder. The head rests on the back square pillow, which can not only draw and stretch the deformed cervical spondylosis, but also prevent the second injury of the natural gravity of the head to the cervical vertebra.
1. Put the neck pillow on the neck or the back root of the neck near the shoulder when resting or before going to bed.
2. The effect of sleeping on the side is not good, mainly to relieve the fatigue and tension of the cervical vertebra in sleeping position, which is also in line with the natural habit of sleeping at ordinary times.
3. The neck pillow should be placed behind the neck at the beginning of 1- 10. The position behind the neck is the most suitable, and then use it according to your most comfortable feeling.
4. A few days before use, if you are not used to it and feel uncomfortable, you can appropriately reduce the use time. You can put it on the back of your neck before going to bed and during rest time, and you don't need to use it all night. After the symptoms are relieved, you can use it for a longer period of time, and the specific use time should be within your acceptable range.
5. The cervical pillow is hung on the neck, and the neck will feel a little normal pain and numbness under the gravity of the headrest, but the habits and symptoms will soon disappear and will be used all night, especially for patients who are uncomfortable or conditioned to sleep on their back all night. We suggest using it twice a day, many times a day, and not sleeping on your back for too long each time. If they adapt, they can naturally sleep on their back and side all night.
6. The patient's original neck symptoms, such as neck pain, stiffness, dizziness and numbness. In the first few days of pillow use, there should be such symptoms, which may be a little obvious and normal. This is a bit like the principle that the pain is the same after rubbing the medicine before the pain is relieved. After 10- 15 days, the symptoms of cervical vertebra are slightly better.
