What's wrong with the pain on the side of the waist

There are many reasons for side waist pain, the most common of which is lumbar muscle strain. Lumbar muscle strain is a lumbar disease caused by excessive fatigue, and the waist plays a great role in the human body's ability to move. Therefore, if you have symptoms of lumbar muscle strain, in order to avoid further deterioration of the disease and affect your daily life, you must go to the hospital for treatment as soon as the disease is discovered.

1. Sequelae of acute lumbar and back sprain

Acute sprains are very common. Although 95% of patients can recover after treatment, if early treatment is wrong and satisfactory braking and fixation are not obtained, the damaged back muscles will still be in a state of traction, or the frequent activities of the back and waist will affect the normal healing of the tissues, or the fibrous tissue that has just healed will be pulled apart due to heavy massage and other operations, all of which can cause adverse consequences. Severe lumbar and back muscle tears may still cause this kind of sequelae even with proper early treatment. This is mainly because the large area of ​​scar tissue left after healing has a worse tolerance for normal spinal movement and load than normal tissue, making it easy to be stretched and loosen, degenerate and cause local ischemia, which can form a vicious circle. Therefore, special caution should be exercised in the treatment of such cases, as their incidence generally does not exceed 5% of the total number of acute lumbar and back sprain cases.

2. Cumulative chronic damage

Traumatic injuries that are not enough to cause muscle and ligament tears, or forced postures that place the low back muscles in a high-tension state for a long time, are common among car drivers, foundry workers, and tunnel workers. They can cause excessive stretching of the muscle tissue and a certain attachment point, resulting in a pre-rupture state. At this time, local reactive inflammation occurs, including local blood supply obstruction, ischemia, congestion, hypoxia and increased exudation, gradually causing local tissue degeneration. Repeated chronic strain can make this process increasingly severe and easily form a vicious cycle.

3. Additional factors

Too low temperature or too high humidity can promote the development of the above pathological process. Other factors such as endocrine disorders (most common in female menopause), serious illness and severe trauma can easily induce this disease.
