"Hanging neck" fitness became popular on the Internet
Improper methods can be fatal
It has been reported in recent years
The elderly "hanging neck" fitness became popular on the Internet
They hoisted their heads, swayed and swung along with the ropes, and even made very dangerous movements, and everyone took turns on the device, and the style of painting was very strange.
Exercisers say that this method can repair cervical spine diseases and improve neck and shoulder problems.
Lou Zhikun, chief physician of the Institute of Sports Medicine of the General Administration of Sports of the People's Republic of China, once said that although the method of neck fitness adopts the principle of clinical traction, it is not advisable to operate blindly, because the maximum weight that a person's cervical spine can bear is about 25 kilograms. The neck is more sensitive, the upper part is the brain, the lower part is connected to the spinal cord, and there are some trachea, blood vessels, esophagus, etc. in front.
"Hanging neck" fitness may damage nerves and spinal cord, which can be fatal to the human body, such as cardiovascular and cerebrovascular diseases, and even high paraplegia.
This matter also attracted the attention of netizens
Some netizens said:
This kind of "pulling the cervical spine" exercise is not uncommon
I often see it myself
More netizens said
Such gym equipment is too dangerous
The security risks are huge
A bump in a tree, a good body?
"Wild Road" fitness is not advisable
This is one of the more extreme cases, but what emerges is a widespread phenomenon.
On social platforms, the topic of "hitting trees for health" is also hot, and many middle-aged and elderly people think that there are many meridians on the back, and hitting trees can stimulate the meridians and achieve the effect of relaxing muscles and invigorating blood.
however
Does this workout really work?
According to Sun Jianfeng, deputy chief physician of the Department of Rehabilitation Medicine of the General Hospital of the Southern Theater of Operations, many elderly people have low back pain, frozen shoulder, osteoporosis pain, thoracolumbar degenerative pain, etc., and they need to choose corresponding treatment methods according to different causes in order to achieve better treatment results. Blindly hitting a tree may cause protrusion to become protruding and loose to fracture, which can lead to more serious physical injury.
There is a precedent for injuries caused by "hitting a tree", and previously, a 70-year-old man in Wuhan had a retinal detachment due to morning exercise because of "hitting a tree".
In order to relieve the pain in his waist and legs, 70-year-old Uncle Zhang tried the morning exercise method of hitting the tree with his body, and he felt that "mosquitoes were flying" in his right eye, and the color of the objects he saw had changed, the green leaves had turned reddish-purple, and the sun at noon did not feel dazzling.
After a doctor's examination, it turned out that the retina had detached.
Experts said that the feeling of mosquitoes flying in Uncle Zhang's eyes was actually a symptom of the vitreous traction of the retina in the eye to form a tear. When the elderly get older, the vitreous in the eye degenerates, and once they encounter a violent impact, they are prone to retinal detachment.
