Is there any way to relieve the stiffness of the neck?

Don't work for long hours in a row, walk around more in the middle, and move your neck.

Doing yoga can have a good effect, walk around more when working, change the cup to a smaller one, go to catch water after drinking, drink more water, go to the toilet more, and develop the habit of being more active haha.

To play badminton, it's better to tilt your neck back occasionally.

We are now living at an accelerated pace, and many people's bad habits have made us enter a sub-healthy state, especially for some office workers, who are often prone to neck stiffness, so let's take a look at how to relieve neck stiffness in life.

1. Refuse to sit for long periods of time

For many friends with stiff limbs and necks, sitting for a long time is the most significant feature, because of work, so that we often sit in the office all day, which is particularly bad for our health, there is a saying that sitting for a long time is the root of many diseases. In addition to sitting for long periods of time, sitting posture is also a problem, and if we sit in the wrong position, it can also lead to stiff cervical spine muscles. It is recommended that friends who sit in the office should stand up and exercise for a while, which can also relieve our eyes.

2. Do more exercise

Many people can't exercise regularly because of work and other reasons, you can actually do a morning exercise when you get off work or go to work in the morning, we can exercise can make our body healthier, and can also alleviate some mild symptoms of cervical muscle stiffness.

3. Physiotherapy massage

If you can't solve the problem of stiff neck by relying only on the above two methods, we might as well try traditional Chinese medicine methods, we can try to learn some simple massage techniques, massage ourselves regularly every day, or go to some regular hospitals to do acupuncture massage, but it also needs to persist for a period of time to see the effect.

4. Drugs**

If we have a stiff neck problem and it is very serious, and it seriously affects our life and work, it is recommended that you go to a regular hospital for treatment**, if necessary, you can take medicines**, take some drugs with relieving effects, and pay attention to some small problems in your life, and slowly adjust.

Many people are caused by small problems and not paying attention to a healthy lifestyle in their daily life, so if we want to have a healthy body, we must pay attention to some details of life and develop good living habits, I hope the above content will help you.

I believe that everyone must have experienced a stiff neck in life, and it is very difficult for us to twist it, if this is the case, we must pay attention to our habits and sleeping posture, so let's take a look at what to do with a stiff neck.

1. Hyperthermia

Apply a hot water bottle directly to the affected area of your neck for 20-30 minutes, 2-3 times a day, which can effectively reduce the discomfort in your neck. If you don't have a hot water bottle, it's also a good idea to try this method. Soak a hot towel in hot water, wring it out and wrap it around your neck, or take a longer hot shower and let the water lap at the back of your neck.

If we have neck stiffness caused by injury, we can't use the above methods, we have to go to the hospital in time**, otherwise the hyperthermia method will aggravate our neck pain and increase our discomfort.

2. Activities

We can gently stretch the exercise, can make our stiff neck flexible again, it is recommended that you turn your head left and right, if you can move the neck 4-5 times a day, then the effect is like you apply medicated oil to the joints of the neck.

3. Close the window in your bedroom

Because the cool breeze blowing in will make us huddle up to keep warm, which will cause our necks to stiffen.

4. Find a suitable pillow

Although two or three pillows will make us very comfortable, but our neck may not be able to bear, so that our neck is easy to stiffen for a long time, we can choose some wheat bran pillows or orthopedic pillows are very helpful, because they can better support your neck, support the pressure of your neck, so as to avoid poor sleeping posture caused by your neck damage.

5. Don't sleep on the couch

We should take a lunch break, but we should remember not to sleep on the sofa, because the sofa is very small and it is easy for us to hurt our neck.

6. Apply ointment

Although it is said that applying ointment can not be the source of the disease, you can buy some topical ointments that make our surface heat in pharmacies, and some ointments made of salicylic acid, all of which have the effect of relieving and relaxing your neck, so you might as well try it.

If our stiff neck has been going on for more than two days and it can't be solved by the above methods, it is recommended that you find a doctor to help, as this will help us solve the problem better.

Neck stiffness is a common symptom that is usually caused by holding incorrect head and neck posture for long periods of time, postural instability, exertion, or other problems.

Here are a few ways to relieve neck stiffness:

1.Get plenty of rest: If neck stiffness is caused by maintaining an incorrect head and neck posture for a long time, it is advisable to rest more, avoid working continuously for a long time, and divert attention every once in a while to help the muscles relax.

It should be noted that if the neck stiffness is very severe, it is recommended to seek medical attention in time to avoid affecting life and work.

At the same time, we should also pay attention to maintaining good posture habits in daily life, especially people who sit or stand for a long time need to pay attention to rest and proper stretching, or use massagers, ancient prescriptions and other convenient and quick relief tools to alleviate or prevent.

But our kind of work or students basically don't have the opportunity to prevent it.

In short, after some improvement, you still need to pay more attention to rest, do not twist your neck to make a clicking sound, protect the cervical spine, and do not hunch over, and always practice the muscles around the cervical spine and shoulders to achieve a protective effect.

There are 3 reasons for neck stiffness:

Sitting with your head down for a long time will compress the cervical joints, resulting in a blockage of qi and blood in the joints, and over time, this part will lack qi and blood moisture, resulting in stiffness.

The physical constitution of oneself is too poor, the qi and blood are insufficient, and the qi and blood are not enough to nourish the cervical joints, and the cervical spine will be stiff.

Blood stasis in the body, excessive cold and dampness, and garbage are clogged in the blood vessels, resulting in slow blood flow and stiff neck

The cervical spine used to suffer from cold, and the cold qi stagnated in it, resulting in the blockage of qi and blood.

Therefore, the core of stiffness is the slow blood flow in the cervical spine, and the lack of qi and blood moisture in the soft tissues around the cervical joints, resulting in stiffness, which will strain over time and produce cervical spondylosis.

So how do you recover?

Enhance one's own physique and nourish one's own qi and blood

Speed up the circulation of qi and blood in the body, and speed up the circulation of qi and blood in the cervical spine.

Expel the cold and damp air from the body, discharge garbage, and let the blood vessels unblocked

Then your body will have sufficient access to qi and blood to nourish this stiff area, and it will gradually become pliable and thus recover.
