Lumbar curvature straightens sleeping posture

Patients with straightened lumbar curvature often experience discomfort in the waist, so it is very important to have a correct sleeping posture. Pay attention when sleeping, try not to lie on your stomach or sit on one side for a long time, and do not keep pressing on half of your body. You should lie flat or on your side and switch back and forth to achieve the correct sleeping position.

Correct guidance

Gastric disease is a common disease. From an anatomical point of view, the greater curvature of the stomach and the exit of the stomach to the duodenum and the exit of the small intestine to the large intestine are all on the left side. Therefore, sleeping on the right side will not compress these organs and is conducive to the smooth flow of food from top to bottom in the digestive tract. However, patients with a digestive disorder called esophageal reflux are better off sleeping on their left side.

Lying on the left side will not only compress the left limbs and slow down gastric emptying during sleep, but also increase the pressure on the heart in the chest cavity, which is not conducive to the heart's blood transfusion and is also prone to nightmares. Correct guidance: It is better for heart patients to lie on the right side. The heart is located in the left chest. Sleeping on the right side will cause more blood to flow to the right side, reducing the burden on the heart. If heart failure has occurred, a semi-recumbent position can be adopted to relieve breathing difficulties. Avoid lying prone or on the left side. Patients with coronary heart disease and angina pectoris should sleep on a bed tilted 10 to 15 degrees, with the upper body high and the lower body low, so that the blood returning to the inferior vena cava is reduced, which is conducive to the heart's rest.

Side-lying position is prone to cerebral thrombosis

Analysis: It can aggravate blood flow obstruction in patients with cerebral infarction who already have arteriosclerosis, especially slowing down blood flow in the neck, which is prone to gather and form blood clots at the damaged part of the arterial intima.

Therefore, it is not advisable to sleep in the left side or prone position. It is best to sleep on the right side, followed by the supine position. Middle-aged and elderly people who are prone to snoring and those with gastritis, indigestion and gastroptosis are best suited to sleep in the right side.

Analysis: Relevant experts investigated 2,000 patients with cerebral infarction and found that more than 95% of the patients had the habit of sleeping completely on their side, with half of their bodies pressed down. This sleeping position aggravates blood flow disorders on the basis of existing arteriosclerosis, especially slowing down blood flow in the neck, which is prone to gradually accumulate at the damaged part of the arterial intima and form blood clots. To eliminate this hidden danger, it is more appropriate to lie on your back or half-ly on your side from time to time.

Some people like to sleep on their side. If they sleep on their left side, the right side presses on the left side; if they sleep on their right side, the left side presses on the right side. For people who sleep on their backs, the chest presses on the back, while for people who sleep on their stomachs, the back presses on the chest. In any case, there is a relationship of oppression and oppression. Some people said that he slept standing up, which caused his upper body to press on his lower body, with the weight of his entire body pressing on the soles of his feet, making the oppressed person even more miserable.

So what kind of sleeping position is best? It depends on personal circumstances. Scientific research shows that it is best for people to sleep on the right side, which may be the best sleeping position for humans, but the best is not necessarily universal. For example, fat people can only choose a sleeping position that is scientifically considered bad - sleeping on their backs. If a fat person sleeps on his side, his entire weight is on his arms and he will not be able to sleep for long. If a fat person sleeps on his back, his huge body is dispersed on the broad back, and the pressure on each part is relatively lighter. In addition, fat people sleep more soundly, so they can sleep longer this way.

Thin people can sleep in any posture except sleeping on the left side, because the most important organs in the body are on the left side, and the most important organs naturally cannot be oppressed, especially for people who are growing bigger and heavier.
