What disease is shoulder ache? What are the treatment methods for shoulder pain? How to alleviate shoulder pain? This is a topic of concern for office workers and manual workers. The following is the reason why I tidy up your shoulder pain. I hope I can help you.
1. Left shoulder pain
Scapulohumeral periarthritis is a shoulder pain centered on the shoulder joint, which can limit the movement of the shoulder. Aging and excessive fatigue of the shoulder joint and muscles around the shoulder are usually the causes of the disease. Because the sensory nerves of shoulder pain and heart pain are very close, both in the posterior horn of the spinal cord, when there is a heart problem, it will also reflexively cause left shoulder pain, such as angina pectoris, myocardial infarction, etc.
The difference between the two is that the left shoulder pain caused by heart disease is mostly related to activity. It occurs during activity, which is paroxysmal and regular. Rest or nitroglycerin can be relieved. The pain caused by scapulohumeral periarthritis often appears after fatigue, and rest containing nitroglycerin can not be relieved.
2. Right shoulder pain
Acute gallbladder inflammation can stimulate the right phrenic nerve endings and cause skin reflex pain in the right shoulder. The phrenic nerve is composed of the third to fifth cervical nerves, mainly the fourth cervical nerve, and its branches are distributed on the shoulder skin. When the end of the right phrenic nerve is stimulated and transmitted to the fourth cervical ganglion through the phrenic nerve, the cerebral cortex will have an illusion that it is the pain from the right shoulder.
Therefore, when the pain of the right shoulder is difficult to alleviate, the color Doppler ultrasound can be performed first to eliminate cholecystitis. If it is diagnosed as cholecystitis, the shoulder pain can be relieved by anti infection, spasmolysis and analgesic treatment.
3. The more you press, the more painful it becomes
Neck and shoulder pain, the family to give a press, immediately feel relaxed and comfortable, but not long after the disease broke out again, then we have to consider other diseases. For example, cervical spondylotic radiculopathy caused by nerve root edema is the most common cervical spondylosis. When the disease is acute, do not massage, massage and traction, otherwise it will aggravate nerve root edema and worsen the condition.
The correct approach is to eliminate nerve root edema through systematic treatment, and then massage, massage and traction by professional doctors.
4. Inexplicable pain
Bone metastasis of spinal malignant tumors is common. Most patients are middle-aged and elderly people aged 40 ~ 70. Because their symptoms are not specific, they are often misdiagnosed. Thoracic vertebra was the most invaded site of spinal malignant tumors, followed by lumbar vertebra, cervical vertebra and sacral vertebra. Pain and neurological dysfunction of limbs are a signal of spinal tumors. Pain can include neck and shoulder pain, back pain and low back and leg pain due to different tumor sites, and radiate to the upper limbs, intercostals and legs.
Therefore, when there is inexplicable strong pain in the neck and shoulder, don't treat it as "scapulohumeral periarthritis" by mistake. You can go to the hospital for CT investigation. In addition, when lung cancer compresses the patient's brachial plexus, it will also lead to shoulder pain. Different from scapulohumeral periarthritis, lung cancer has many other symptoms besides chest and shoulder pain, such as long-lasting cough and hemoptysis. Taking chest film early to make a clear diagnosis can avoid misdiagnosis and disease delay.
You can do hot compress, you can choose electric heating treasure, you can also choose a hot bottle or hot water bag, or you can also choose a hot towel. In short, hot compress the painful part, which can effectively alleviate the shoulder pain.
Plaster can be applied, and appropriate plaster can be applied to the painful part, which can treat shoulder pain, so as to fundamentally alleviate shoulder pain.
Moxa sticks can also be smoked. Moxa sticks can effectively relieve neck and shoulder pain, and have a good therapeutic effect on periarthritis of shoulder. Therefore, moxa sticks can alleviate the pain of shoulder or neck and shoulder.
Reduce the height of your pillow. The relatively high pillow is also an important reason for cervical spondylosis and scapulohumeral periarthritis. It is best to replace your pillow with cassia, which is conducive to the recovery of cervical spondylosis.
Before the diagnosis of scapulohumeral periarthritis, it is necessary to exclude the common cardiopulmonary diseases and cervical spondylosis in the middle-aged and elderly, because the pain symptoms of such diseases often involve and radiate to the periphery of the shoulder. In self-care, it is necessary to go to the hospital for corresponding examination to eliminate the above diseases.
Each exercise may have local acid swelling and slight pain, but it should not cause severe pain. Passive sports should not be forced by violence to avoid local injury. Exercise must be persisted and persevered every day in order to achieve good results.
Exercise alone cannot be used for rehabilitation. When the pain is serious, it should also be combined with other treatment methods, such as ultrashort wave, ultrasound, muscle strength training, passive joint activity and so on.
We should change our sitting and sleeping positions, develop good living habits, and finally don't stay up late, and then learn to relieve the pressure of study and life. Exercise the head and neck regularly. For about an hour, turn left to right. Don't fix it in one position.
