I would recommend the following exercises. I had my L4 removed two years ago and returned to downhill skiing (which includes aggressive mogul/bump) skiing as well.
Prior to and since, I have relied on a few stretches routines that I do twice daily.
Upon rising, I lie on my back and slowly put my hands over and then behind my head while pointing my toes as far forward as possible. Then I relax. 10 reps.
Next I lift my knees towards my chest (if you can, slowly raise from your midsection so that your chest or chest meets your knees) keeping your hands behind or to the side of your head. DO NOT PULL ON YOUR NECK. Hold for 10 seconds and then return to a pararell position on the floor. Breath and then repeat 9 more ties for a total of ten.
When finished, lie on your stomach. Place your hands palms down and at shoulder width and slowly push the top part of your torso up. Just higher enough to feel a slight stretch. Then lower yourself back to the ground. Repeat 9 more times for a total of ten.
Next stand up. place your hands on your back slightly more towards your hips but not on the side. Keep your feet at a distance slightly outside your shoulders. Now, slowly push your hips forward while leaning backwards. Don't overstretch.
Start with theses and repeat prior to going top bed. In all, 10 minute x2 daily.
I have had one sore back in these 2 past years that lasted for a period of 24 hours. These exercises have been literally a "back saver."
Speedy recover to all.
The cause of disc desiccation is from replacement of the hydrophilic glycosaminoglycans within the nucleus polyposis with fibrocartilage. It is considered a degenerative disorder.
Disc desiccation is the loss of fluid in the intervertebral discs. When this occurs at each lumbar lore, the disc is not herniated or bulging and there is no surgical treatment.
Multilevel disc desiccation is a health condition of the spine. This health condition or disease is the loss of fluid between the discs of the spine. This fluid or jelly acts as cushion for the spine against pain. Multilevel disc desiccation is a degenarative disease.
No desiccation indicates some kind kind of break down in the disk itself. Herniating a disc is to have it moved out of position (pinched or something like that) which can in some cases be fixed.
yes
Disc desiccation happens when fluid is lost from the intervertebral discs of the spine. Disc dessication leads to acute back pain, due to excessive wear on the vertebrae (small bones which make up the spine) and the discs (located between the vertebrae) themselves.
Oh, dude, disc desiccation? That's like when your spinal discs dry out, not a fun time. Technically, you can apply for Social Security Disability for it, but it's not a guaranteed ticket to easy street. They'll need to see how much it's affecting your ability to work and function, so it's not just a case of "my back hurts, give me money."
i got a disc bulge, herneated disc about 4 years go. since the injury it has progressed into disc desiccation. it's become very painful and i get spinal injections now. I'm only 19. ):
Desiccation of the disc refers to the drying out and degeneration of the intervertebral discs in the spine. This can lead to a decrease in disc height, loss of elasticity, and can be a contributing factor to conditions such as disc herniation or degenerative disc disease. Symptoms can include back pain, stiffness, and decreased flexibility.
It's an MRI sign that the intervertebral discs are aging.
Get a doctor that passed med school.
Disc desiccation is a naturally occurring condition where the fluid lubricating the vertebral disc dry up. There are many non surgical options to alleviate the pain ranging from massage and physical therapy to pain medications.
