Congenital six lumbar vertebrae

The lumbar spine is an important component that supports the entire body. The pressure it bears is very great. If the lumbar spine is subjected to severe pressure for a long time, it will cause lumbar injury or cervical spondylosis. Many people may not understand what disease the congenital six lumbar vertebrae is. This is mainly because the lumbar spine is composed of five vertebrae, and the appearance of six lumbar vertebrae is caused by a mutation in the lumbar spine.

The backbone of the human back is called the spine, which is composed of the cervical vertebrae, thoracic vertebrae, lumbar vertebrae, sacral vertebrae, and coccygeal vertebrae. The lumbar sacral region is the main weight-bearing part of the human body. In terms of anatomical structure, the lumbar spine is generally composed of five vertebrae, which are called L1, L2, L3, L4, and L5. But everything has variations. For example, sometimes the sacral lumbar variation occurs, and the patient has six vertebrae. On the contrary, sometimes the lumbar sacral variation occurs, and the patient has only four vertebrae. Generally, if there is no obvious discomfort, you can ignore it and it will not affect your normal physiological functions.

4 nursing methods for lumbar spondylosis

1. Keep your waist warm

If the waist and back are exposed to adverse factors such as humidity and cold, it is easy to cause spasms and tension in the waist and back muscles, which may lead to recurrence of lumbar spondylosis. Especially in autumn and winter, you should add clothes as the weather changes and pay attention to keeping your waist, back and lower limbs warm.

2. Maintain correct posture

If you maintain a correct sitting posture in your daily life or work, you can effectively reduce the load on the lumbar spine and delay the degree of degenerative changes in the lumbar spine, thereby effectively preventing the recurrence of lumbar disease.

3. Keep exercising

In your daily leisure time, you must insist on exercising, especially exercising the functions of the waist and back and exercising flexion, extension, and rotation, which can increase the toughness and strength of soft tissues such as the waist muscles and ligaments, and effectively prevent the recurrence of lumbar disease.

4. Avoid waist trauma

Based on years of clinical observation, it is found that sprain and trauma of the waist are the direct causes of the occurrence and recurrence of lumbar disease. In daily life, try to avoid trauma and sprain of the waist, which can effectively prevent the recurrence of lumbar disease.
