How to recover quickly after a waist injury

Although not everyone has a slim waist, the waist can be said to be the most important part of the human body. However, due to various reasons in life, it is very easy to sprain the waist. The pain caused by a sprained waist or a fall cannot be described in words. Therefore, if this happens, you must stay calm, lie down and rest, and seek professional treatment. I recommend everyone to learn it.

What to do if you hurt your waist?

Lie down on a wooden bed and rest immediately. Apply cold compress to the affected area within 24 hours. After 24 hours, you can self-treat:

1. Massage method: Lie prone, and family members use the palms of both hands to rub and press on both sides of the spine from top to bottom, and massage down to the buttocks to the muscles under the thighs and behind the calves. After massaging several times, press the most obvious pain point with your thumb, from light to heavy, until you feel soreness and swelling. Continue for 1-3 minutes, then slowly relax to relieve pressure. After pausing for a while, repeat this 5-7 times, and then pinch the painful area with the tip of your thumb.

2. Waist rubbing method: bend your waist forward and rub your waist with the palms of both hands to generate a sense of heat, for about 2 minutes. Hot compress method: Cover the waist with a thin cloth, apply a wrung hot towel to the affected area, and then cover it with another layer of soaked hot towel to maintain the heat. Change it every 3 minutes and continue the hot compress for 20-30 minutes each time. You can also wrap heated salt or sand in a cloth bag and apply hot compress, but be careful to keep the temperature within your tolerable range.

Carrying method: The patient and his family stand back to back, bend their elbows and hold them together, then the family member lowers his head and bends over, carries the patient on his back, and gently shakes him left to right, while letting him kick his feet upwards, put him down after a while, and rest for a few minutes before doing it again. Generally, after reciting it a few times, the back pain will gradually improve.

4 Squat method: Ask the patient to squat down and stretch his arms upward with his palms facing each other. Another person squats down and uses the thumb and middle finger of his right hand to press and pinch the two points on the left and right sides of the patient's waist where it hurts the most, making the patient feel painful but comfortable. Then the two of them slowly stood up at the same time, stood still for a while, and then slowly squatted down. The effect will be better if you can sweat during the process.
