Грыжа межпозвонковых дисков: причины возникновения и лечение

Грыжи межпозвонковых дисков - наиболее распространенное и самое тяжелое проявление остеохондроза позвоночника. Заболевание сопровождается болевым корешковым синдромом, парезами или параличами мышечных тканей нижних конечностей, нарушением функции органов таза, расстройством чувствительности. Заболевание приводит к утрате трудоспособности и часто инвалидности, поэтому в 19% случаев требует безотлагательного хирургического вмешательства.

Причины образования грыжи позвоночных дисков

Среди самых распространенных причин возникновения межпозвоночной грыжи преобладают различные нарушения обменных процессов организма, остеохондроз, травмы, инфекции, нарушение осанки. Предрасположенность к данному заболеванию существует у людей, проводящих за рулем автомобиля свыше 2-х часов в день, более 4-х часов за компьютером, и у тех, кому приходится ежедневно поднимать тяжести.

С точки зрения медицины, причиной болезни служит разрыв межпозвонкового диска, в ходе которого образуется грыжа. Выпячиваясь назад и в сторону, она оказывает давление на корешок нерва в месте его выхода из спинномозгового канала, провоцируя воспаление и отек. Часть нерва вне места давления практически прекращает функционировать, снижая чувствительность и вызывая слабость в ноге.

Лечение межпозвоночной грыжи

При средней тяжести болей больному прописывается постельный режим. Строгое соблюдение постельного режима в течение от 3-4 недель до 2-3 месяцев, прием болеутоляющих и противовоспалительных медикаментов могут привести к успешному излечению.

В острой стадии лечение грыжи диска осуществляется вытяжением позвоночника. При этом в межпозвонковом пространстве возникает перепад давления, благодаря чему грыжа «всасывается», а диски становятся в нормальное положение. Этот метод способствует быстрому ослаблению болей.

Однако при некупируемом болевом синдроме, поражении органов таза, синдроме поражения конского хвоста и нарастании неврологического дефицита показано оперативное лечение. Без операции нельзя обойтись, когда неоднократные вытяжения все же не дают желаемого результата.

После завершения острого периода заболевания и возврата позвоночнику его нормальной подвижности больному прописывается специальный курс лечебной гимнастики, массаж и физиотерапевтические процедуры, чтобы укрепить ослабевшие спинные мышцы.

THANK YOU VERY MUCH! In 2006, I was treated by Davidenko N.V. I am from another town, and I went to your clinic occasionally when I was refused an appointment in other clinics. In your clinic it was very friendly, I didn’t even expect that. Take my special gratitude for that. And if I hadn’t visited you then, perhaps, my son wouldn’t be alive now. Thanks to all of the workers who were attentive and helped me then.

I‘ve been ill for a long time. My joints ache strongly, and I have complaints about my thyroid gland. My joints ache both during physical exertion and in the state of rest. I have had medicated treatment periodically since 1998. I was treated in Moscow, in Artrocenter, also I had sanatorium treatment in Pyatigorsk. However, my condition only became worse. I could see that there wasn’t any sense in such treatment. I heard about the clinic of Doctor Kulikovich occasionally, from my fellow traveler in a train. What I liked in her story more is that in the clinic they treat not just one certain bone but the body in general, that is the cause of the problem. In three months I finally decided to come to Dnipropetrovsk. Here I quickly passed a complex diagnosis. The atmosphere in the clinic gave optimism to me. It is great that the whole diagnosis can be done in one place. I liked it here so much that I want to come here one more time. I wish I lived a bit nearer.

I appealed to the clinic having problems with my pancreas. Having being diagnosed and having the course of treatment, I was completely satisfied both with the staff’s attitude and with the final result. After having the course of treatment sessions, I don’t feel pain. I feel good. The only one unpleasant memory is connected with acupuncture, it was a bit painful for me. The other treatment was comfortable. I think that in this clinic there is an optimal quality-price ratio.

I was forced to appeal to the clinic because I had complaints about my locomotor system; I had pains in my knee and hip joints, and bones in my legs. After the examination, it was found that there were problems with a lot of my viscera, I had not even suspected about some of them. Before the treatment, I had pains in my loins; I thought that it was radiculitis, but it turned out to be problems with my kidneys. After treatment in the clinic, I don’t have any complaints. Mobility in my joints became better, and they stopped aching. My analyses – urine and blood – normalized. I liked it here very much, especially I liked the attentive and conscientious attitude towards me. Previously, after the treatment in other establishments, it wasn’t clear to me whether the treatment helped me or not, but in this clinic I feel the result of the treatment.
