Do you often have lower back pain? Maybe Caused By This!<\/a><\/h3>
Low back pain (LBP) is often felt by humans, especially office workers or those of advanced age. As many as 17-31% of the total population have experienced NPB in their lifetime. Low back pain is pain that is felt between the corners of the lowest ribs and the lower buttock fold. Based on the 2010 Global Burden of Disease study, NPB is the largest contributor to global disability, the main cause of disability in young adults which causes > 100 million working days lost each year. Thus NPB causes a decrease in work productivity and is associated with a large economic burden. Risk factors for lower back pain include demographic factors, this is due to age, gender, socio-economic status and education level. The second is due to work factors, namely physical activity of bending, lifting, twisting, and monotonous work. The third is health factors such as obesity and smoking. The four psychological factors are depression, as well as spinal anatomical factors. \nSources of pain from NPB include the spine and related structures, nerves, blood vessels, internal organs, psychogenic. A practical classification system for NPB can be divided into nonspecific low back pain, low back pain due to neurological disorders (stenosis & radiculopathy), and more serious low back pain (red flags). \n\n Prevention of lower back pain is to avoid excessive body weight, then avoid lifting weights in the wrong position, improve ergonomic sitting position, then avoid maintaining certain positions for a long time, adequate rest is very necessary, exercise regularly. \nThe initial treatment when a patient has lower back pain is first an ice compress/warm compress. The second is regular exercise to avoid lower back pain. The third is getting enough rest because with enough rest the body will relax so that back pain will be avoided. The fourth is taking medication for lower back pain. \nBe alert if NPB does not improve, and red flags are found, namely signs that can increase our suspicion of the possibility of a more serious pathological condition. Namely, there is a history of neoplasm/malignancy, history or signs of infection (long cough), history of trauma, bowel/bowel disorders or erectile dysfunction, severe neurological deficit, radicular syndrome, and finally age over 50 years due to steroid drug abuse or under 20 years (violent trauma). Make a visit to a neurologist if your lower back pain doesn't go away, so that the pain can be resolved quickly and prevent chronic and recurring pain. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Injury\n\nThe first and most common cause of wrist pain is injury. Injury or force can have an effect on bone structures such as fractures or cracks or non-bones such as sprains and dislocations (shifting of bones away from the joint) in the wrist. This condition usually occurs due to several things, such as:\n\nSudden impact due to using the hand as support when falling.\nOften do activities that involve repetitive hand movements, such as driving, playing musical instruments, playing sports, basketball, etc. \n\n 2. Rheumatoid Arthritis\nThe next cause of wrist pain is rheumatoid arthritis, which is an autoimmune disease that causes the body's immune system to attack the lubricating fluid that surrounds the joints (synovium). As a result, the connective tissue and cartilage around the joints will be damaged, including the joints in the wrist. This condition is different from osteoarthritis which is basically a degenerative or aging process. \n\n 3. Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\n\nCarpal tunnel syndrome is also a cause of wrist pain that needs to be watched out for. Apart from pain, carpal tunnel syndrome sufferers also often complain of frequent tingling in their hands, their hands becoming less sensitive to touch, and swelling and discoloration of the skin of their hands.\n\nThis condition can occur due to compression of the median nerve in the carpal tunnel (the gap between the carpal bones and ligaments in the wrist). There are a number of factors that can increase a person's risk of experiencing carpal tunnel syndrome, including: \n\n - Pregnancy.\n- Suffering from diabetes.\n- Suffering from rheumatoid arthritis.\n- Disruption of body fluid balance.\n- Suffering from obesity.\n- Have work that involves repetitive hand movements, such as office workers who work long-term typing and sports athletes whose sports activities are dominated by the use of their hands, namely tennis, volleyball, badminton athletes, etc \n\n 4. Ganglion Cyst\nGanglion cysts are one of the causes of wrist pain which occurs due to the presence of cysts or abnormal soft tissue on the upper side of the wrist. This condition can cause pain that gets worse, especially when the sufferer moves the wrist.\n\n5. Trigger Finger and de Quervain disease\n\nTrigger finger is inflammation of the tendons or tissue that connects bones and muscles so that a painful sensation arises when the sufferer bends or straightens the fingers, while de Quervain disease is inflammation of the tendons in the wrist area and the upper side of the thumb. Trigger finger can also cause the finger to feel stiff so it cannot be moved. Generally the fingers feel stiff when bent.\n\n\n\nTrigger finger can occur in one or several fingers. However, usually this condition most often affects the right hand, specifically the little finger, ring finger and thumb. This condition is also known as stenosing tenosynovitis or trigger finger. \n\n How to Treat Wrist Pain\nTreatment for wrist pain tends to vary depending on the severity and underlying cause. However, a number of medical procedures commonly performed to treat wrist pain are as follows:\n\n\n\n1. Consuming drugs\nThe first way to deal with wrist pain is to take analgesic medication to relieve the pain that arises. Several types of analgesic drugs that doctors often prescribe to treat wrist pain are ibuprofen, paracetamol, NSAIDs, and.\n\n2. Physiotherapy\nPhysiotherapy is a rehabilitation therapy to control symptoms, restore the body's abilities, restore body function and movement, and minimize physical limitations that occur due to certain injuries or diseases. \n\n 3. Pain Intervention\nPain intervention management or Interventional Pain Management (IPM) is a minimally invasive procedure carried out with the guidance of tools to treat acute and chronic pain long-term or permanently.\n\nThe procedure is carried out by inserting certain drugs, substances or tools into the body structure or certain parts of the body that are the source of pain. Next, block the nerves which are part of the mechanism of pain transmission in a targeted manner using guidance tools such as ultrasonography (USG), fluoroscopy, C-Arm, and other supporting tools \n\n 4. Operation\nSurgery can be performed to treat wrist pain if it is triggered by several things, such as:\n\nFractures and dislocations.\nNon-traumatic cases where ultrasound guiding pain intervention has been carried out but have not provided optimal results in cases of Trigger finger, de Quervain diseasde, Carpal Tunnel Syndrome\nCases of ganglion cysts enlarge progressively and symptoms do not improve with medication\n\n\nThat's the cause, symptoms and treatment of hand pain.

Changing the Sedentary Lifestyle Among Couch Potatoes: Toward a Healthier and More Active Life<\/a><\/h3>
The increasingly modern lifestyle often leads many people to adopt a very inactive way of life, known as a "sedentary lifestyle." This especially applies to couch potatoes, who spend most of their time sitting or lying down without much physical activity. In this article, we will discuss the importance of changing the sedentary lifestyle among couch potatoes and provide some suggestions to help them towards a healthier and more active life. \n\n Why Is a Sedentary Lifestyle Dangerous? \n\n A less active lifestyle has serious implications for health. Research has shown that a sedentary lifestyle can increase the risk of various health problems, including obesity, type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high blood pressure, and other diseases. Additionally, it can also lead to reduced muscle strength and bone density, resulting in further health issues such as osteoporosis. \n\n Changing the Sedentary Lifestyle among Couch Potatoes \n\n Changing the sedentary lifestyle among couch potatoes may not be easy, but with determination and commitment, positive changes can be achieved. Here are some steps that can help them: \n\n 1. Regular Physical Activity \n\n An essential step in changing a sedentary lifestyle is incorporating physical activity into daily routines. It doesn't have to mean intensive exercise. Even simple activities like light walking or morning exercises can help increase physical activity levels. Try to schedule a routine for daily physical activity. \n\n 2. Habit Replacement \n\n Changing habits takes time and effort, but it's crucial. Replace couch potato habits with more active ones. For instance, if you usually spend your day watching TV or playing video games, try to limit this time and replace it with activities that involve physical movement, like gardening or cleaning the house. \n\n 3. Use Health Technology \n\n With the advancement of technology, there are many apps and devices that can assist couch potatoes in staying active. Fitness apps, activity trackers, and wearable devices can help you monitor your physical activity and provide motivation to stay active. \n\n 4.

They can provide specific advice and guidance for your situation. \n\n By taking these steps, couch potatoes can change their sedentary lifestyle and embark on a journey towards a healthier and more active life. Remember that change takes time, so be patient with yourself and keep striving to achieve your health goals. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Stroke is a condition that occurs when the blood supply to a part of the brain is reduced or disrupted as a result of a blockage (ischemic stroke) or rupture of blood vessels (hemorrhagic stroke). Strokes can occur suddenly and must be treated immediately.

Symptoms that are commonly experienced by stroke sufferers include: \n\n \n Weakness on one side of the body (hemiparesis) \n Weakness in the facial muscles that makes one side of the face droop \n Difficulty raising both arms due to weakness or numbness \n Difficulty speaking \n Dysarthria \n Tingling \n Difficulty recognizing faces (prosopagnosia) \n \n\n The causes of stroke are generally divided into two: the first is due to a blood clot in a blood vessel in the brain, and the second is caused by a rupture of a blood vessel in the brain. \n\n Stroke Healing \n\n Stroke management is carried out according to the type of stroke the patient is currently experiencing. Actions that can be taken range from the administration of drugs to physiotherapy and surgery. To support the recovery process of stroke patients, doctors will usually recommend physiotherapy, occupational therapy, and psychological therapy. This all aims to restore the patient's body functions so that they can return to their normal activities. \n\n \n\n Physiotherapy Benefits \n\n Some of the benefits that Friends of Hermina can get from post-stroke physiotherapy treatment \n\n \n Reduce pain \n \n\n Not only do they have difficulty carrying out their daily activities, but stroke sufferers will also experience more pain. By doing physiotherapy, the pain will gradually improve, and it is hoped that this will relieve the pain. To overcome this pain, the therapist will use therapy using electrical stimulation, ultrasound, heat therapy, and others, depending on needs. \n\n \n Overcome muscle stiffness \n \n\n Several studies have proven that spasticity, or muscle stiffness, can be cured with physiotherapy. The doctor will evaluate the patient's condition and then determine what therapy program is suitable. The doctor will give advice regarding the lifestyle that must be followed, including an effective diet pattern to deal with muscle stiffness. \n\n \n Increase the ability to move the body \n \n\n One of the things that usually happens in stroke patients is the ability to move the body, such as walking, standing, smiling, moving hands, eating, talking, and others.

Functions and Benefits of Physiotherapy for Stroke Sufferers<\/a><\/h3>
Functions and Benefits of Physiotherapy for Stroke Sufferers \n\n Stroke is a medical emergency, because without the supply of oxygen and nutrients, cells in the affected part of the brain can die in just minutes.

Improves Movement Ability \n\n The muscle stiffness suffered after a stroke will make it difficult to move, such as not being able to stand, walk, use your hands to eat, and even make it difficult to speak. With physiotherapy, these problems can be overcome. \n\n \n\n \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Recognize Cerebral Palsy As Early As Possible<\/a><\/h3>
Definition \n\n Cerebral Palsy is a collection of symptoms or abnormalities in the form of movement and posture disturbances caused by non-progressive and persistent brain damage that occurs during the child's brain development. \n\n \n\n Risk Factors \n\n Risk factors for cerebral palsy can occur in several phases of a child's development, from the time the mother is pregnant, during labor, and when the baby is born. \n\n The possibilities that occur when the mother is pregnant include torch infection, bleeding during pregnancy, epilepsy, the occurrence of eclampsia, consumption of illegal drugs and a history of trauma or falls during pregnancy. \n\n The cause of cerebral palsy is also possible to appear during the birth process, one of which is a difficult and prolonged labor process and asphyxia in the baby. Then the condition when the baby is born prematurely can also be a risk factor besides LBW. However, it should also be noted that not all premature / LBW babies will result in cerebral palsy, it's just that parents are expected to remain vigilant. \n\n The next phase of child development that could be a possibility of cerebral palsy is the development of children, especially during the first 2 years of age until the age of 5 years. At that age, parents should be vigilant if their child has several viral infections, such as meningitis, encephalitis, etc. In addition, if a child has seizures and experiences hyperbilirubin (jaundice), immediately have the child checked at the nearest healthcare facility for immediate treatment. \n\n Also be alert if a child has bleeding in the brain due to head trauma, because this is also one of the risk factors for causing cerebral palsy if not treated immediately. \n\n \n\n Symptom \n\n Symptoms/signs of a child suffering from cerebral palsy can be identified by looking at posture control disorders or movement disorders in children such as gross motor delays, not being able to sit, roll over, stand according to the age of their development, weakness in the legs or arms, the appearance of stiffness and the appearance of movements - other abnormal movements. CP can also be accompanied by other disorders such as vision problems, hearing problems, communication problems, eating disorders and breastfeeding problems. In addition, children who are less active and more silent also need to be concerned. \n\n \n\n If these symptoms are present, parents are expected not to panic, and immediately have their child checked by a medical professional for further examination and treatment. \n\n \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Getting to Know More About Medical Rehab<\/a><\/h3>
Pelayanan rehabilitasi medik adalah pelayanan kesehatan yang diselenggarakan di fasilitas kesehatan dan meliputi upaya pelayanan promotif, preventif, kuratif, dan rehabilitatif, yang mencakup kegiatan pelayanan kesehatan secara utuh dan terpadu melalui pendekatan medis, psikososial, edukasional, dan vokasional untuk mencapai kemampuan fungsional seoptimal mungkin. Pelayanan rehabilitasi medik dilaksanakan oleh dokter spesialis kedokteran fisik dan rehabilitasi (SpKFR) dan tim rehabilitasi medik. \n \nKemajuan teknologi di bidang kedokteran telah banyak membawa manfaat. Sebagian besar penyakit, baik akibat kecelakaan ataupun penyakit akut dan kronis lain, telah dapat diatasi dengan pelaksanaan medik yang canggih sehingga penderita dapat bertahan hidup. Namun, meskipun pasien dapat selamat dari kecederaan atau kondisi akut lain, banyak yang akhirnya menyisakan kecacatan yang cukup berarti. Kemajuan di bidang kedokteran dan kesehatan secara umum juga telah meningkatkan usia harapan hidup sehingga menambah jumlah populasi lanjut usia (lansia) dengan sejumlah komorbiditas dan keterbatasan terkait usia. Faktor diatas merupakan faktor-faktor utama peningkatan disabilitas sehingga menjadi gangguan fungsi yang merupakan masalah kesehatan tersendiri di masyarakat. \n\n Beragam Kondisi yang Memerlukan Rehabilitasi \nBerikut adalah beberapa kondisi atau gangguan medis yang memerlukan rehabilitasi medik: \n\n 1. Rehabilitasi pada penderita jantung \nRehabilitasi jantung merupakan program rehabilitasi medik yang dirancang untuk mendukung pemulihan dan perbaikan kondisi jantung dan pembuluh darah. \n\n Rehabilitasi ini ditujukan bagi pasien penyakit kardiovaskular, seperti serangan jantung atau gagal jantung, serta pasien yang menjalani tindakan medis pada jantung, misalnya angioplasti atau operasi jantung. \n\n Sebelum menjalani rehabilitasi medik, pasien akan menjalani pemeriksaan dari dokter terlebih dahulu untuk menilai fungsi jantungnya. \n\n Pemeriksaan tersebut di antaranya adalah pemeriksaan fisik dan tes penunjang, seperti rekam jantung (EKG), ekokardiografi, tes darah untuk menentukan kadar kolesterol dan enzim jantung, hingga stress test yang dilakukan dengan bantuan sepeda atau treadmill. \n\n Setelah itu, dokter akan memberikan pengobatan atau tindakan medis untuk menangani kondisi pasien. Untuk mendukung pemulihan jantung, dokter juga akan memberikan program rehabilitasi jantung yang terdiri dari olahraga atau latihan fisik serta edukasi hidup sehat bagi pasien. \n\n 2. Rehabiltasi pada penderita stroke \nRehabilitasi stroke merupakan salah satu langkah penanganan yang penting dilakukan pada pasien stroke. Melalui rehabilitasi medik, kemampuan serta kekuatan gerak tubuh mereka diharapkan bisa kembali pulih. Setelah itu, pasien juga akan dilatih untuk bisa kembali beraktivitas dengan lebih mandiri. \n\n Beberapa program dan metode rehabilitasi stroke mencakup aktivitas fisik, seperti latihan keterampilan motorik, psikoterapi, terapi wicara, serta terapi okupasi. \n\n 3. Rehabilitasi pada penderita hernia nucleus pulposus \nHernia nucleus pulposus (HNP) merupakan penyakit di mana bantalan saraf tulang belakang keluar dari ruas tulang belakang sehingga menjepit saraf di dalamnya. Kondisi ini biasanya disebut dengan istilah saraf kejepit. \n\n HNP bisa menyebabkan nyeri berat pada punggung atau leher, kelemahan anggota gerak tubuh, hingga kelumpuhan. Untuk menangani kondisi ini, dokter bisa memberikan obat-obatan, melakukan fisioterapi, atau operasi. \n\n Biasanya rehabilitasi medik pada pasien HNP diberikan dalam kurun waktu beberapa minggu hingga beberapa bulan. Tujuannya adalah untuk meringankan nyeri punggung serta memperbaiki posisi saraf dan tulang belakang pasien. \n\n Metode rehabilitasi medik pada HNP bisa berupa terapi panas, terapi listrik, latihan fisik atau olahraga untuk saraf terjepit, hingga penggunaan korset khusus untuk tulang belakang. \n\n 4. Rehabilitasi pada penderita penyakit paru obstruktif kronik \nPenyakit paru obstruktif kronik (PPOK) merupakan salah satu penyakit kronis pada paru-paru yang bisa membuat penderitanya kesulitan untuk bernapas. Penyakit ini juga bisa menyebabkan kadar oksigen pada tubuh pasien berkurang. \n\n Rehabilitasi medik pada penyakit ini penting agar pasien bisa bernapas dan beraktivitas dengan lebih lancar, serta mencegah kekambuhan dan meringankan gejala yang dialami. \n\n Program rehabilitasi medik pada pasien PPOK umumnya berupa latihan fisik atau olahraga, seperti sepeda statis, senam, dan latihan untuk memperkuat otot pernapasan. Melalui program ini, penderita PPOK juga akan dilatih untuk bisa berhenti merokok. \n\n 5. Rehabilitasi pada pasien yang menjalani amputasi \nPasien yang telah menjalani amputasi tentu akan merasa stres atau bahkan depresi karena tubuhnya tidak lagi bisa bergerak atau beraktivitas seperti dulu. Untuk mendukung pemulihan dan melatih kemampuan mereka, dokter umumnya akan melakukan program rehabilitasi medik. \n\n Melalui program ini, pasien akan dilatih dan dimotivasi untuk bisa kembali bergerak dan beraktivitas dengan baik. Rehabilitasi medik pada pasien yang diamputasi juga mencakup latihan penggunaan anggota tubuh prostetik. \n\n Misalnya, pada pasien yang kakinya diamputasi, dokter akan melatih mereka untuk menggunakan kaki palsu atau prostetik agar bisa kembali berjalan. \n\n Rehabilitasi medik juga bisa didapatkan dalam bentuk terapi okupasi, terapi penglihatan, dan terapi bicara, disesuaikan dengan kebutuhan masing-masing orang. Pada intinya, rehabilitasi medik bertujuan untuk mengembalikan fungsi tubuh yang terganggu akibat menderita suatu kondisi atau penyakit. \n\n Hasil akhir dari rehabilitasi medik yang dilakukan tergantung dari tingkat keparahan kondisi yang dialami dan kemampuan tim rehabilitasi yang menangani. Selain itu, motivasi dan semangat pasien yang menjalani rehabilitasi medik juga berperan penting dalam mendukung keberhasilan rehabilitasi. \n<\/p><\/div><\/div><\/div>

Safe and Healthy Driving Tips!<\/a><\/h3>
Friends of Hermina, driving is an activity that has become part of the community's routine to reach the destination. Driving using a car is the dream of individuals, especially in big cities because of its convenience. However, it is undeniable that in some traffic accidents, car users can have a fatal impact, which can lead to death. \n\n Traffic accidents are usually caused by factors that are not primed by the driver while driving, such as drowsiness, fatigue, emotion, and negligence in driving.\n\nWhy are you sleepy?\n\nWhen driving for long periods of time, the driver's position tends to be static, causing fatigue in the posture muscles. Besides fatigue, the impact is also on the lack of oxygen levels being channeled to the brain because all the glass is closed and then inhaling Freon from the air conditioner so that the brain lacks oxygen and causes drowsiness.\n\nSo what does sleepiness have to do with posture?\n\nWhen we are sleepy, our postural patterns will weaken, so our awareness will decrease as well as the alertness reflexes needed when driving. \n\n Here are tips to keep our posture good so that sleepiness can be prevented: \n\n 1.Sitting Position\nBefore starting the journey, the driver must adjust the position of the car seat. The correct sitting position is the body upright and forming an angle of 100 degrees.\nYou do this by adjusting the position of the seat back so that it is in the right position but remains relaxed, and making sure the position of the hands and feet remains free to move when driving.\nPut your back against the back of the seat or back rest so you don't get tired easily.\nIn addition, pay attention to the range of eyesight to the exterior mirror area, interior mirror, and blind spot area, which can be clearly monitored when the driver is adjusting the seat position. \n\n 2.Head Position\nMake sure the seat headrest position is in accordance with the driver's head height, and make sure the head position is upright in line with the shoulders so that concentration and views towards the front of the vehicle are not disturbed.\nThe right headrest height can protect the rider's head and neck in the event of a hard impact due to an accident.
