The health of the waist and legs is extremely important for people's bodies, because the waist and legs are the important foundation for supporting people's bodies. Problems with the waist and legs will affect people's ability to move, causing patients to have serious symptoms of paralysis. The problem of waist and leg pain is relatively common and has a greater impact on people's lives. Let's take a look at the explanation of what causes waist and leg pain. I hope everyone can understand.

1. Acute lumbar sprain:

There is an obvious history of injury, and the disease often occurs immediately after the injury. The diagnosis is clear. Patients often experience immediate pain after a lumbar injury, but are still able to move. The pain worsens significantly the next day, or they become bedridden. He walks with his hands on his waist and his gait is restrained. In this case, massage can be used to promote blood circulation and remove blood stasis.

2. Myofascial fibrositis This disease has many names, such as myofasciitis, myofascial fibrositis, myositis, myofascial fibrositis, myofascial pain syndrome, etc. It is more common in middle-aged and older people who lack muscle exercise for a long time and are often exposed to dampness and cold. The characteristics of this disease are that the neck, shoulders, waist and buttocks can all be affected. There are specific pain points, which are hair-trigger and produce severe pain when pressed. The pain may radiate but not in a neuroanatomical distribution.

3. The third lumbar transverse process syndrome: This disease is due to the anatomical specificity and biomechanical characteristics of the third lumbar transverse process, which causes a series of clinical symptoms after friction, traction and compression stimulation with the nearby soft tissues during activities. It is common in young and middle-aged manual laborers. The transverse process of the 3rd lumbar vertebra is particularly long and extends horizontally, which is its characteristic. In this case, you can use the Chinese medicine Shuluo pain-relieving patch.

4. Spinal facet joint synovitis: also known as facet joint disorder. Although the facet joints are small, they have the same structure as other large synovial joints and can develop synovitis and capsulitis under acute trauma or chronic stimulation. The main clinical manifestation of this disease is severe chronic low back pain, which may have acute attacks. In the acute stage, the patient is bedridden and has difficulty turning over. There is deep tenderness in the affected small joints. There were no symptoms or signs of nerve root damage, and the straight-leg raising test was negative. Lumbar spine X-rays may show no special signs except for degenerative changes. The pain disappeared after the facet joint capsule was sealed with procaine.
