The thoracic spine is inactive, surprisingly stable due to the firm fixation of the ribs, therefore the least susceptible to osteochondrosis.Its clinical manifestations, syndromes rarely order patients.
Nevertheless, there are those who have been able to "win" this disease for years of sitting on the desktop and even in an uncomfortable, non -violent posture or steering wheel in a trembling car.
The osteochondrosis of the chest most often falls on the one who suffers from scoliosis, does not follow his posture, stop, hump.
At the same time, the vertebrae of the breasts are unnaturally bent, along with muscles, ligaments, nerve fibers, they experience high tension and additional, very significant loads from year to year.
Fatigue, wear of the vertebra segment and gives impetus to the development of the disease.
Small tricks:Design the correctness of the posture by gluing a narrow ribbon of adhesives to the spine.
As you bend over and your spine is twisted, the adhesive plaster will extend, reminding you of the need to change your posture and take the right posture.You will be amazed at how many times a day your body takes the posture dangerous to the health of the spine.
