Sclerosis zamechatelnyh plates of the spine: what is it, treatment, effects, photo

Sclerosis zamechatelnyh plates of the spine the pathological process, which increases the density of the tissues of the endplates. With age zamechatelnye plates become thinner, deteriorating blood circulation in them. The vertebrae become thicker, the formation of osteophytes, the intervertebral discs are under pressure. The result is inflammation and clip the nerve endings. The patient experiences pain attacks, increasing neurological symptoms.

Sclerosis zamechatelnyh records is not curable, but you can slow it down and to relieve the symptoms using medications, physiotherapy, physical therapy, massage.

Reasons

Sclerosis of the spine – a pathological process of the sealing cloth of the spine, including zamechatelnyh records. Bone density is increased, since the connective tissues are in large excess. The vertebrae become thicker, and the tissue between the segments initiate the destruction of bone tissue of the vertebrae.

Sclerosis develops because of disturbed blood circulation in the bones of the spine. Reduced the Lumina of blood vessels, the bone becomes more fragile and affected a huge number of microcracks.

There are two reasons for which there is sclerosis of the spine:

• Zamechatelnye records began to age prematurely;
• Inflammation of the affected soft tissue.

Sclerosis of the spine is usually accompanied by other abnormalities of the back, most often is a complication. Multiple sclerosis becomes a risk factor for the development of new pathologies. There are inflammation and stiffness and pain.

Diagnosed and classified sclerosis zamechatelnyh plates of the vertebral bodies on x-ray examination. The pictures clearly show how the deformed body of the vertebrae, which appeared bony growths. Another source of development of this process – arthrosis and osteochondrosis. These diseases disturb the metabolism and blood circulation in the vertebrae, the result is roughness and seal tissue. For osteoarthritis bone spurs occur in the tissues of the joints, osteochondrosis – in the vertebrae.

Multiple sclerosis most often affects elderly people, or patients of middle age, whose way of life is contrary to preventive recommendations. At a young age this kind of pathology is very rare.

Symptoms

As a result of multiple sclerosis zamechatelnyh plates is pressure on the intervertebral discs. Start pain, even if the spine of the patient is not experiencing stress. Even harder when there are sudden movements and load. If multiple sclerosis has affected zamechatelnye plate to the cervical spine, will show the complexity of head movements.

Furthermore, a person catch the following symptoms:

• Difficulty coordinating movements, no sense of balance;
• Weak and numb arms, legs;
• It's hard to breathe;
• There is muscle weakness, accompanied by a piercing sensation, "tingling" in hands and feet;
• Tremor of the hands;
• Rapid weight loss;
• Decreases stress and common emotional background;
• When sclerosis of the cervical observed deterioration of hearing, tinnitus, the patient may be completely deaf.

These symptoms are not always observed, they depend on localization of the pathological process and degree of damage. To make a diagnosis and to clarify how the disease, doctors use x-rays, CT and MRI. To determine how compacted bone tissue, the patient passes a particular study – densitometric.

Treatment

Sclerosis of the spine and its zamechatelnyh plates – not an independent disease of the supporting apparatus. This is a set of symptoms, talking about pathological changes in tissues. Pathological changes generally incurable, but can slow down their rate of development, eliminate the symptoms, reducing the patient's quality of life.

Drugs

For medical treatment used:

• Nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs to eliminate inflammation (Diclofenac, Ibuprofen, more modern and less harmful to the gastrointestinal tract – Nimesulide, Celecoxib);
• Painkillers (Ketanov, Ketorol). In severe cases, can be assigned to novocaineblockade;
• Chondroprotector improve the condition of the affected intervertebral discs metabolic processes in them;
• Muscle relaxants are prescribed if muscle spasms are observed (Mydocalm, sirdalud).

Physical therapy and exercise therapy

Physiotherapy involves treatment that improves blood circulation in the affected area and metabolism in it. Used electrophoresis, a low frequency current treatment, magnetic therapy. When sclerosis zamechatelnyh plates of the spine, a real salvation for the patient becomes therapy. Exercises physiotherapy and swimming will help stretch the spine, catch the blood in the affected tissue, strengthen the muscles. The load should be gentle and slow to grow.

An important point in the treatment of such pathologies as multiple sclerosis and backbone zamechatelnyh plates – changes in the diet. The patient should lean on lean meats, vegetables and fruits, fatty fish. The salt content in food should be restricted.
