哪些人容易受到肌肉疼痛影響?
無論是局部區域還是身體多處,肌肉疼痛都可能對生活品質造成顯著影響。疼痛的程度可以從輕微的緊繃感到劇烈的酸痛不等,具體取決於其潛在原因。
肌肉疼痛確實很常見,可能影響各個年齡層的人。它可能突然出現,也可能隨時間慢慢發展。大多數肌肉疼痛情況並不嚴重,休息後即可改善,但若疼痛持續不退,便應諮詢專業醫療人員進行評估。
最常見的症狀是什麼?
肌肉疼痛的症狀可能會有所不同,但常見的症狀包括:
- 身體一個或多個部位的疼痛
- 緊繃或僵硬,限制了您的活動
- 受影響區域的腫脹
- 特別是在活動時的尖銳或灼熱感疼痛
- 肌肉的疲勞或虛弱
- 肌肉痙攣或抽筋
- 活動時疼痛加劇
肌肉疼痛的原因是什麼?
肌肉疼痛有許多不同的原因,其中一些最常見的原因包括:
- 過度使用或身體負荷過重
無論是提起重物、反覆進行同一動作,還是過度運動,都可能造成肌肉疼痛,即使沒有明顯受傷也不例外。
- 不良姿勢或人體工學問題
長時間站立或坐姿不正會對某些肌肉造成持續的壓力。
- Injuries
Strains, sprains, or direct trauma like an accident or fall can damage muscle tissue and lead to soreness. But besides direct muscle injury, joint disorders can also lead to muscle pain. For instance, a number of spinal and pelvic conditions, such as sacroiliac sprain can also lead to subsequent muscle pain in the buttocks, thighs, or lower back.
- Stress and Tension
Emotional stress can cause your body to tense up, especially around the shoulders, neck, and jaw. This chronic tension can lead to persistent muscle pain.
How Do Chiropractors Treat Muscle Pain?
Chiropractors are licensed healthcare professionals with expertise in the musculoskeletal system. It is important to note that muscle pain can often develop from issues such as nerve irritation or joint dysfunctions. A chiropractor would perform a comprehensive interview, physical examination and provide a detailed diagnosis before moving on to discussing with you specific treatment options for your muscle pain. Chiropractors then offer, when clinically possible, an effective natural treatment approach combining different methods.
Here are a few common treatment approaches at a chiropractor’s office:
- Soft tissue therapy, such as trigger point release or stretching
- Corrective exercises to strengthen weak muscles and prevent re-injury
- Postural advice to help you avoid future strain at work or during daily tasks
- Physical agent modalities such as ultrasound and shockwave therapy
- Manipulative therapy, when indicated
