Experts remind
"Hanging neck" fitness can damage the nerves and spinal cord
In severe cases, it can even lead to high paraplegia
In recent years, the elderly "hanging neck" fitness has become popular on the Internet, but experts remind that although this exercise method adopts the clinical traction principle, it is actually not advisable.
Zhao Qiang, vice president of the First Affiliated Hospital of Tianjin University of Traditional Chinese Medicine, said that this kind of exercise is really terrible.
Zhao Qiang introduced that in the clinical treatment of cervical spondylosis, traction must be selected according to the patient's adaptability, and gradually increase. The traction force suitable for adults is about 10kg, and the maximum is not more than 12kg, which is obviously far beyond the standard of traction holding the weight of adults.
"This kind of hanging method, if you are not careful, will cause atlantoaxial subluxation, that is, the first and second cervical vertebrae, thereby damaging the nerves and spinal cord, and in severe cases, it will cause high paraplegia." Zhao Qiang reminded that this place is close to the base of the skull, and there are many blood vessels that supply the brain, and the blood vessels are tortuous, so that the "hanging neck" can easily cause insufficient blood supply to the brain and even suffocation, which is really very dangerous.
"For healthy people who do not have cervical spondylosis, it is not recommended to 'hang the neck' for fitness, which has no benefit for cervical spine health."
Zhao Qiang suggested that for people who have been working at the desk for a long time, the discomfort of the cervical spine is more due to the tension and fatigue of the soft tissues around the vertebral body, such as muscles and tendons. Therefore, if the cervical spine is usually uncomfortable, you can move the cervical spine by lowering your head, raising your head, rotating left and right, and flexing sideways to normalize the muscles and ligaments of the cervical spine.
If you feel severe discomfort and pain in the cervical spine, you must go to the hospital in time for treatment, and treat the symptoms after classification.

@洛晓洛跑得快呀: The fears finally came true.
@爱吃Pizza的小盆友: Hanging around your neck? Don't know that this practice is dangerous? Why is there such gym equipment?
@much's little follower: Oh my God, there are so many old men and aunts who are exercising in the nearby park that they feel like they are practicing martial arts...... But it's really dangerous, and the neck is already fragile.
