summary

These days when I work, I always feel my back is particularly painful, and when I straighten my back, it's very painful. When I don't straighten my back, it's OK. I went to the hospital to have a check. It's ankylosing spondylitis. The doctor said that we must be careful in life. Don't always bend down to prevent deterioration. Now let's learn how to exercise to treat ankylosing spondylitis.

How to exercise for ankylosing spondylitis

First: breathing. Use supine or sitting position to relax the whole body. Inhale, starting from the caudal vertebrae, up along the spine to the cervical spine, exhale, from the cervical spine down to the caudal vertebrae, as if the air was flowing on the spine. Do along the spine breathing, do 3 ~ 5 minutes, you can also practice at any time, the length of time is unlimited. If you feel a slight fever on your back, keep warm.

Second: sit and stretch. Sit in a comfortable position. If you can't sit on the ground, you can also practice sitting in a chair. Support your hands on your knees and hold them tightly. Keep your upper body as straight as you can and look straight ahead. Inhale, hold chest forward, head back naturally; exhale, bow back, contract chest and abdomen, extend cervical spine, chin as close as possible to sternum. Practice 3-5 times.

Third: for ankylosing spondylitis, conventional treatment measures include drug treatment, diet conditioning, exercise therapy, physical therapy, etc. But so far, there is still a lack of effective medicine, relying on yoga for adjuvant treatment can only be done under the guidance of professional yoga teachers, do not blindly do their own exercise, so as not to further damage the spine.
