Is it the original knife edge for lumbar fixation

summary

Recently, I always feel that low back pain doesn't work. I can't straighten up at all. I don't know what's going on. The hospital has checked and said that it's a lumbar problem and needs to be fixed. It's good to take out nails after fixation. Now let me talk about the original knife edge of lumbar fixation.

Is it the original knife edge for lumbar fixation

First, the nucleus pulposus and laminar forceps were prepared with conventional screw rod system. During the operation, observe the doctor's operation progress and deliver the tools in time. In a hospital, according to the doctor's habits. The diameter and length of the lumbar and thoracic nails must be known. Now the scientific name of the lumbar spine nail is also called "pedicle screw". The main purpose of nailing is to increase the stability of the spine and improve the spinal fusion rate.

Second: generally the same incision, postoperative general half a month can recover, but early should not be high-intensity activities. Therefore, the main indications of transpedicular fixation in lumbar spine surgery include: there is lumbar instability before surgery or the surgery itself may cause lumbar instability. The position of the internal fixation nail is basically the same as that of the placement, but it is generally simpler than that of the fixation, because there is no need to repair the trauma.

Third: after the operation, we usually have to rest for about half a month. For example, simple lumbar discectomy will not cause spinal instability. If there is no lumbar instability in the preoperative surgical segment, nail internal fixation is generally not required. In addition, with the development of spinal minimally invasive technology, the damage of the operation itself to the stability of the lumbar spine is also further reduced, so there are some cases using minimally invasive technology may avoid internal fixation.

matters needing attention

Under normal circumstances, if there is no special circumstances, lumbar fixation is the original knife edge. After all, no one wants to get one more knife edge. After taking out the nail, patients should pay attention to the need to rest for a few days and try to avoid exercise.
