General Neck & spine Care !
In order to avoid the above neck problems, you need to take care of the neck. And given below is the care in general that can be taken to avoid the same. ![]() ============== * Always keep your neck straight and keep your posture right. * Clean the skin regularly and do exfoliation with the general scrub. This will remove the dead cells. * Massage the neck regularly, but don`t apply very high finger pressure. * Regular scrubbing of the neck with a natural scrubber activates the lymphatic glands and removes dead cells. * Sleep on a low pillow. This will keep the neck alignment proper. * While at work do not lean over your work, hobbies, projects, etc. Angle work so that you can look straight ahead, or sit closer to your work area. * It is best to sleep on a firm mattress rather than on a soft bed. * When lifting objects bring the object close to you using your legs in lifting, not your back so that you don`t put extra pressure on your neck. * While sleeping the neck should be neither bent nor extended, it should be gently supported. * Do neck exercises through out the day. * Remember, while sitting or standing avoid slouching yourselves. Keep entire back pressed to the back of the chair. Do not hold head and chin up and your neck drawn back. Hold chin tucked in. * While lifting or reaching for anything always bend your knees using the leg muscles to lift. Keep load close to your body when lifting. Avoid reaching needlessly. Use a step stool to avoid stretches and strains. * Again, while driving, do not slouch. Sit high in the seat, which should be positioned comfortably from pedals and steering wheel. A support pad may help relieve pressure on the lower back. * Begin a regular program once the pain has subsided. Begin slowly and allow your muscles and body to warm up. Consult your doctor on appropriate activity best suited for your condition. Exercising is an important adjunct to your treatment. However, be sure to follow your doctor`s instructions carefully. * Do not overdo exercise, particularly when beginning. Start by trying movements slowly and carefully. If the exercise causes some mild discomfort, which lasts a few minutes, do not be alarmed. This will disappear, as your muscles become stronger. But, if pain is more than mild and continues for more than 15 to 20 minutes, discontinue exercising and speak to your doctor. ![]() ![]() ========================= Dealing with oil/water/construction tools .
