"Liu Ruihong Girl" hurt again? But this time it's a pot of high myopia

On the nth day of becoming a Liu Qihong girl, did you lose weight? Is there any increase in muscle?

What the? Already injured?

Someone twisted her foot, someone had a ligament strain, someone had hit the toe, and a little girl had a retinal bleed.

Wait, this last bleeding is also too scary, right? Chun Yujun carefully read the news, it turned out that the girl herself was a highly myopic patient, and when she jumped, her head shook violently, causing retinal concussion injuries, which in turn caused bleeding.

What problems should patients with high myopia pay attention to in their daily lives? If you have high myopia, you can't be a "Liu Qihong girl"? With Liu Ruihong fitness, how can you avoid injury?

Has the degree increased since adulthood? Be wary of pathologically high myopia

Myopia is one of the most common eye diseases in mainland China, clinically usually divide myopia into mild myopia, moderate myopia and high myopia, of which mild myopia refers to myopia below 300 degrees, moderate myopia refers to myopia of 300 to 600 degrees, and high myopia refers to myopia above 600 degrees.

According to relevant statistics, the prevalence of high myopia among adolescents in mainland China is between 6.69% and 38.4%, and recent epidemiological surveys show that about 163 million people worldwide suffer from high myopia (accounting for 2.7% of the total population), and this number is expected to grow to 938 million (9.8% of the total population) by 2050.

High myopia can be divided into two types clinically:

1. Simple and highly myopic

Myopia is 600 degrees and above, but in adulthood, the degree may stabilize and progress significantly, without accompanying fundus lesions that cause irreversible visual impairment.

2. Pathological high myopia

Presents with lifelong progression of myopia with irreversible visual impairment and fundus lesions, accompanied by constant overgrowth of the eye axis (> 26.5 mm).

The causes of high myopia are mainly genetic and environmental, and long-term near-eye work and less outdoor exercise are common environmental factors that cause myopia.

The occurrence of pathological high myopia is greatly affected by genetic factors, the most common way of inheritance is autosomal recessive inheritance, and there are also autosomal dominant inheritance, sex-linked recessive inheritance and other genetic methods.

If patients with high myopia find that their degrees have been increasing and their corrected vision is gradually decreasing, they should go to the ophthalmologist in time to see if surgery and other methods are needed to control the condition.

Can't you move with high myopia?

In general, rapid growth and development of the eye axis and higher corneal refractive force can lead to myopia, of which the length of the eye axis is most strongly correlated with the refractive state.

High myopia is mostly axial myopia, the degree of myopia increases by an average of 300 degrees, the length of the eye axis will increase by about 1 mm, the eye axis is elongated like a balloon expansion, the "balloon wall" - the eyeball wall is getting thinner and thinner, and accompanied by corresponding vascular changes, tissue stretching and thinning, later or later tissue atrophy and deformation, etc., which in turn leads to a series of fundus changes, such as posterior sclera staphyloidosis, paint crack lesions, retinal cleavage, macular degeneration, retinal choroidosis, etc.

For simple high myopia that has not yet appeared in fundus lesions, because fundus changes are not much different from normal people, so it is enough to exercise life like ordinary people, of course, such as diving, bungee jumping, boxing, which will also greatly increase the risk of retinal detachment for ordinary people, strenuous exercise is not recommended.

For the pathological high myopia of fundus lesions, due to the thin wall of the eyeball, the sclera is weak in resistance to external forces, it is necessary to avoid strenuous exercise as much as possible, not only playing basketball, playing football, jumping high, boxing, diving, jumping high sports should not be participated, heavy physical labor (such as transport) should not participate, in order to prevent the occurrence of retinal rifts, retinal detachment and other situations.

However, proper exercise has many health benefits, and pathologically highly myopic patients can choose relatively moderate exercises such as jogging, walking, tai chi, and yoga.

Regardless of the high degree of myopia, we must pay attention to the annual review of myopia degree and fundus conditions, and often pay attention to changes in vision, such as the appearance of object deformation, floaters, visual field seems to be obscured, night blindness and other symptoms, you must seek medical treatment in time.

How to avoid injury for "Liu Ruihong Girl"?

Having said that, in fact, most of the injured "Liu Qihong girls" are caused by insufficient warm-up, accidental injuries to surrounding obstacles or weak sports foundations.

It is recommended that before practicing, first remove the tables and chairs around the sharp corners, so that the fitness environment is as empty and safe as possible, pay attention to wearing sneakers or sports socks, do not wear slippers, girls can wear sports underwear to prevent violent vibrations from causing damage to the chest.

Before and after the jump exercise, we must carefully do a good job of stretching exercises, the main parts are the shoulders, knees, hips, ankles, wrist joints and finger joints rotation and the stretching of large and calf muscles, so that the body feels slightly warm and sweaty.

Fitness intensity should be measured, if you do not exercise, suddenly increase the amount of exercise, there will be lactic acid accumulation, low back pain and other situations. Exercise should be gradual, find a rhythm that suits you, and it is important to develop the habit of sticking to exercise.

Finally, like the previous pathological high myopia patients, as well as some people with underlying diseases (such as cardiovascular disease, gout, osteoporosis, diabetes, arthritis, etc.), according to their own situation, choose the appropriate exercise mode, do not blindly follow the trend of strenuous exercise, so as not to cause damage.

(Hmmm...) There is also such a "seen = practiced" indeed will not be hurt / image source network, invasion and deletion)
