Mother is just? After decades of toiling like a day, the mother can't stand for ten minutes now

Ms. Sun (pseudonym), a 55-year-old native of Zhoukou, Henan Province, was recently diagnosed with "severe scoliosis." A few days ago, Ms. Sun completed spinal orthopedic surgery at Hangzhou Fuyang Traditional Chinese Medicine Orthopedic Hospital and is recovering.

After the operation, Ms. Sun was puzzled: How could I have severe scoliosis when I was usually healthy?

Contract 178 acres of farmland

Go to bed late and get up early to work hard

Ms. Sun is an authentic farmer, and the husband and wife have planted 178 acres of farmland. Because there is a son and a daughter under the knee, plus a sister-in-law, in-laws and other people, the lives of a large family of eight or nine people need to be taken care of, and the couple is inconvenient to go out to work and earn money, so they use crops as a livelihood and continue to work for more than twenty years.

Ms. Sun's son Xiao Qi (pseudonym) said: "When I was a child, I often went to work with my parents in the crop fields, and the children had a big heart and sometimes shouted tired, but when they saw their parents' faces full of sweat and the calluses on their hands, they would feel embarrassed, so they honestly did farm work."

Contracting 178 acres of farmland means that Ms. Sun and her husband basically spend all year round in the crop field: weeding, fertilizing, watering, pest control, planting cotton to raise seedlings, go to the soil, beat flowers, pick flowers, put away grain to be transported in bags, and face more than 100 kilograms of grain Ms. Sun must also carry it hard.

In previous years, there were fewer crop machines, and it was expensive to use, and when the corn was harvested in the autumn, the couple would manually break down one by one and transport it home, and then peel it off one by one.

Looking at his mother lying on the hospital bed, Xiao Qi often flashed the back of his mother sitting alone in the courtyard in the middle of the night peeling corn: "Several times, I saw my mother still peeling corn when I got up at one or two o'clock in the morning, but when we got up and prepared for school, the steaming breakfast was already on the dinner table. At home, my mother always went to bed the latest and got up first. ”

Fell to the ground and could not get up

After that, I always felt back pain

More than ten years ago, Ms. Sun fell once while fertilizing in the field, and she did not pay attention to it at that time, and got up to continue working. Not long after, when Ms. Sun was carrying a bucket of water at home, because there was moss on the ground, she slipped under her feet and fell heavily to the ground, and the bucket was also thrown out a meter or two away. She tried to get up, turning left, right, and crawling on the ground, and the pain intensified but she couldn't stand up anyway.

The helpless Ms. Sun lay on the ground for most of the morning, and then she saw that the sun was rising higher and higher, and she thought that it was almost time for dinner, the child had to eat quickly and then go back to school, and the old mother also needed a spittoon... Thinking about this, Ms. Sun gritted her teeth and finally stood up at the cat's waist.

In this way, Ms. Sun did not go to the hospital after that, she symbolically pasted two pairs of plasters, "rested" at home for two days, and then continued to weed and pick cotton in the field. Sometimes Ms. Sun will feel back pain, but she always thinks that as long as she rests for one night, she will pass by.

And so, day after day, year after year, and so on.

Two years ago, Ms. Sun began to have aggravated low back pain, but she felt that she was an "old farmer with a solid skin", and now she is not working as much as before, "just take a good rest". In the past two years, the pain has been repeated, and half a year ago, the chest, waist and back were in excruciating pain, standing for less than ten minutes or walking less than 100 meters before they could not support it, and the right lower limb and sole of the foot even began to be painful and numb. Unable to bear it, Ms. Sun finally tried to go to the local hospital for treatment, but the pain symptoms showed no signs of relief.

Spinal damage is already severe

Had to be corrected by surgery

Ms. Sun, who could not bear it, was finally discovered by the child, and her son Xiao Qi, who had graduated from college and worked in Hangzhou, immediately took his mother to Hangzhou for treatment.

A few days ago, Ms. Sun accompanied by Xiao Qi went to Hangzhou Fuyang Traditional Chinese Medicine Bone Injury Hospital, and after diagnosis, Ms. Sun had to undergo surgical correction for degenerative scoliosis. Hua Yongjun, director of the Minimally Invasive Spine Center, said: "Judging from the film, Ms. Sun should have fractured her bones, coupled with years of high-intensity labor, her spine damage has been very serious, and her right lower limb has been affected by neurological dysfunction. Conservative treatment is ineffective, and surgery is required to correct the line of force in the spine to improve symptoms. ”

Ms. Sun's life has been completely limited by the disease, and Ms. Sun and her family were overjoyed to hear that there was a treatment that could be relieved, and agreed to the surgical correction treatment plan.

Recently, with the cooperation of the minimally invasive spine team, Ms. Sun's surgery was carried out smoothly. Ms. Sun did not expect that the day after the operation, she could try to get out of bed and take a few steps under the guidance of the doctor, and because her body was "corrected", even her height increased by 3 centimeters!

There are many people who work hard like Ms. Sun, and people always say that "for the mother, it is just", and the labor intensity of the "profession" of the mother is really not small. However, even machines have to rest, not to mention the fragile human body!

Director Hua Yongjun introduced that degenerative scoliosis is a slow lesion process, mainly in people over 50 years old, the ratio of male and female incidence is about 1:2, the group incidence rate is about 6%, and heavy physical labor, injury history, osteoporosis and so on are greatly related. "Like Ms. Sun, the degree of injury is serious, the symptoms are also serious, and the orthopedic surgery is still quite difficult."

Therefore, the doctor reminds everyone: in the labor must be done according to the ability, although sometimes can not avoid the labor intensity of the work, but must be appropriate rest; pay attention to the labor posture, there is a fall or other abnormalities must be timely to the professional hospital for examination and treatment; in daily life, pay attention to protect the waist, such as sitting upright, soon sitting, sitting for a long time after forty minutes to stand up and move for a while; when young, you can practice the training of the core muscle group to protect the lumbar spine; when moving things, pay attention to slowly rise from the squatting posture, do not bend down and rise violently Prevention of osteoporosis.
