Falling on to absorb the burden of the human spine,load distribution,to ensure full-range of motion to provide functionality to create and has a natural curvature. Thanks to this curvature of the spine and the surrounding muscles of the load is minimized. Lordosis is a curvature when viewed from the side close to the neck called forward. Curvature of the neck to the curve of the neck is flattened to get a generally flat appearance.
The curve of the neck is flattened.
Neck flexor and bone-turnover markers between the curvature and length of muscles, the force balance protection. The result of this imbalance that occurs in the time between these muscles of the neck curvature is reduced and flattened the curve will occur. Especially people who work the desk for a long time, because it stops the length of the curve flattened in the wrong position generally forward of the neck can occur. Increased the duration of mobile phone use is also an important factor. Mobile phone screen constantly to look forward to disrupting the natural mechanics of the cervical spine by tilting the head causes duzlesmey. Neck trauma with damage to surrounding tissues also may occur as a result of flattening.
What are the effects of straightening the neck ?
The normal curvature of the neck vertebrae and surrounding tissues and minimizes the burden of the energy use falling on Nov. This degeneration of the vertebrae and discs as a result of the reduction increasing burden of curvature increases. The disks in the herniating time may occur. The result of muscle imbalance Nov spasms, headache and neck stiffness consists of Nov. Neck and head pain increases. The functionality of the neck decreases.
Diagnosis and assessment in straightening the neck, what is it ?
On physical examination with the evaluation of the curve of the neck, the posture of the neck can be understood to be flattened.For accurate results, X-ray and MRI imaging is performed.Examination of the structures and muscles as well as environmental duzlesmen is also done.Nov force and length imbalances, functionality and mobility of the neck is evaluated.In addition, patients with pain, limitation of motion, and activities of daily living also is queried.
Straightening the neck in what is physical therapy ?
- Manual therapy: The normal curvature of the neck to re-create specific manual therapy techniques are applied.To the practice of physical therapy for pain and spasms made.
- Exercise: The muscles of the neck and length applies to the balance of exercises that will create again their strength.Relaxation exercises, and stretching the shortened muscles, strength, decreased muscle strength exercises are valid.Also to re-create correct posture posture exercises are performed.
- Posture training: In a person's daily life and activities about how to posture training.
- Activity modification(edited): Flattened the curve of the neck that may lead to the activities are organized.Given a training on the use of the neck in the right position.
