The height of the pillow directly affects sleep

High sleep does not meet physiological requirements, can you lower your pillow or even pillow? In fact, any method that is biased is not desirable. If the pillow is too low, the head and neck will be in a state of long-term excessive low state, resulting in an increase in lordosis. The muscles in front of the vertebral body and the anterior longitudinal ligament may be fatigued due to excessive tension, and even chronic strain. At the same time, the spinal canal is also reduced in volume due to over-extension, and the spinal cord and nerve roots become shorter. In this case, if there are additional factors such as nucleus pulposus protrusion and bone spur formation, symptoms may occur. Therefore, it is also insufficient to emphasize low sleep sleep.

Whether it is a patient with cervical spondylosis or a healthy person, the height of the pillow directly affects whether the physiological position of the cervical lordosis can be maintained during sleep, preventing or accelerating the degeneration of the cervical vertebra. Especially for patients with cervical spondylosis, during the treatment and after treatment, the pillow should be adjusted according to the condition.

In general, the main obstacles are dyskinesia. It is suspected that the nucleus pulposus is prolapsed or prominent in front of the spinal canal, or it is confirmed on the X-ray that there is spur formation at the posterior edge of the vertebral body, that is, the direct compression of the front of the cervical spinal cord can be made, and the pillow can be slightly lower. These are mainly sensational disorders such as numbness and pain in the extremities. It is suspected that there is hypertrophy and kyphosis in the posterior ligament of the spinal canal. If the oppression is formed behind the spinal cord, the pillow may be slightly higher; if the developmental cervical spinal canal stenosis is accompanied by the posterior margin of the vertebral body If the bone spurs are formed, the pillow should not be too high or too low, and the physiological position is better.

After having a pillow that meets physiological requirements, how can I use it well? This is even more important for patients with cervical spondylosis.

Ordinary people choose a supine position in the supine or lateral position, but some people use a prone position when sleeping. (1) In the prone position, because the human body is squatting, in order not to affect the breathing too much, the head is often in a side-turning state due to the pillow. This is obviously not conducive to maintaining the balance of the neck. (2) The supine position generally places the head and neck in the central depression of the pillow, so that the fulcrum of the pillow is located in the middle of the back of the neck, and the lower part is located on the back and the upper part is not suitable for the posterior cranium; the fulcrum of the pillow should be the back of the pillow. The curvature is adapted, and it needs a little elasticity. The part that is in contact with the back of the head should be lower and softer, so as to set off the item to maintain the normal physiological curve state, that is, the natural extension position, without excessive elevation. Or excessive flexion. (3) When lying in the lateral position, the neck should still be placed in the central depression of the pillow so that the fulcrum of the pillow is located at the center of the side neck, which should also be the highest point of the whole pillow, and the head side should be slightly lower. At one point, the height of the entire pillow is basically comfortable to maintain the shoulder, side neck and head when lying on the side.

Here, only some knowledge of pillows for the prevention and treatment of cervical spondylosis is introduced. Although the history of human application of pillows has been very long, it is always a pillow every day, but it is always unclear how to use it better. Pillows play a big role in human health. For example: the use of magnetic pillow can treat insomnia, neurasthenia and other diseases; lumbar back cushion can treat compression fractures of thoracolumbar spine; middle and old people with axillary cushion can make the hips and knees flexed to play Eliminate fatigue and relax muscles. Therefore, we must not ignore the role of the pillow.
