【医学英语-精彩剪辑】36-3脊柱侧弯与其保守治疗方法:一篇双语介绍
Consistent small steps lead to big achievements.
脊柱侧弯(Scoliosis) 是一种常见的脊柱异常,表现为脊柱向一侧的弯曲。这种状况可以在任何年龄发生,但最常见于青少年期。脊柱侧弯可能导致身体形态的不对称,严重时还可能影响到呼吸和心脏功能。
Conservative treatments(保守治疗方法) for scoliosis aim to prevent further curvature and manage symptoms without surgical intervention. Here are some common conservative methods used to treat scoliosis:
Bracing(戴支具): This method is usually recommended for children and adolescents who are still growing. Wearing a brace can help prevent further curvature of the spine.
通常推荐给仍在生长期的儿童和青少年使用。戴上支具可以帮助防止脊柱进一步弯曲。
Physical Therapy(物理治疗): Tailored exercises can strengthen the muscles around the spine, improving posture and alleviating pain.
定制的锻炼可以加强脊柱周围的肌肉,改善姿势并减轻疼痛。
Observation(观察): Regular monitoring by healthcare professionals to track the progression of the curve. Adjustments in treatment are made based on changes.
由医疗专业人员定期监测,跟踪弯曲的进展。根据变化调整治疗方案。
通过这些方法,许多脊柱侧弯患者能够有效地控制病情,减少日常生活的不便。对于大多数患者而言,保守治疗能够提供满意的结果,避免了手术的风险和复杂性。
