Nemeth right hand - think about the health of the spine

With numbness of the limbs, a person feels some stiffness in movement and a loss of sensitivity of the skin. This phenomenon is often accompanied by tingling, burning, chilliness. If the discomfort caused by these unpleasant sensations quickly passes, it can be caused by a sharp movement or, conversely, a long stillness in an uncomfortable pose. If such a phenomenon happens often, then this is a symptom of the disease. The list of such diseases is great, but the most frequent and serious causes of limb numbness are osteochondrosis, intervertebral hernia, circulatory disorders, nerve infringement, rheumatoid arthritis. Only a doctor can determine the cause of numbness and prescribe a treatment.

Recently, young people are increasingly turning to doctors with a question: "Why does the right arm grow numb, or is it all from the shoulder to the fingers, or only the fingers?" Feelings are described as feelings of stiffness, stiffness. Sometimes the patient complains of pain in the elbow or carpal joints. Loss of mobility of the fingers, as a rule, gives more concern.

The fact is that in the risk group are people who spend a lot of time at the computer. They have numbness in the right arm due to the constant tension of certain muscles, squeezing the nerve channel. This is a carpal tunnel syndrome. This disease affects not only those who work at the computer, but also those whose profession is associated with the daily same movement of the hand - seamstresses, painters, carpenters. These professions existed for a long time, nevertheless carpal joint syndrome before 80th years of the last century was not widely distributed.

The reason that the right arm grows numb, and more specifically, the fingers of the hand, is that swelling of the tendons occurs from a strong strain. The nerve, responsible for the sensitivity of the palm and fingers, runs along the same narrow channel as the tendons. Edema compresses the nerve, which leads to numbness.

When the right hand is numb for the first time, temporary discontinuation of work and easy massage can help. But, like any disease, the syndrome goes through several stages of development. Tingling, stiffness, loss of sensitivity can go into a throbbing pain. If you do not start treatment on time, you may experience severe deformity and even death of the motor muscle of your thumb.

Osteochondrosis is one of the most common diseases in our time. He is exposed to young and old, and those who sit all the time at the desk, and those who are engaged in manual labor. Causes that can provoke the appearance of osteochondrosis are many. We can say that his "foundation" is laid in school: a long sitting at the desk contributes to the formation of an incorrect posture, provokes scoliosis. Strangely enough, intensive training in gyms, uncontrolled lifting of weights can also provoke osteochondrosis. With osteochondrosis of the cervical spine, the right arm grows numb , the pain is felt when trying to lift it, pull it back.

Osteochondrosis can be cervical and lumbar. Its cause is in infringement and inflammation of the nerve roots of different parts of the spine. It is these processes that cause the numbness of the limbs. One of the symptoms of the disease - spasms of blood vessels and, as a consequence, a violation of blood circulation.

In this case, first of all, the right arm and leg grow numb. In the extremities there is a tingling or burning sensation, painful sensations in the wrists and feet.

Osteochondrosis is a progressive disease. Pain, stiffness of movements, loss of sensitivity of the skin indicate serious problems with the spine. The use of pain medication only temporarily relieves the patient's condition. It requires complex treatment - medicines, vitamin therapy, exercise therapy, manual therapy, - and necessarily under the supervision of a doctor.
