Use neck brace in right way

Use neck brace in right way

The inflatable neck brace is suitable for some patients with neck pain, including cervical spondylosis, cervical disc herniation, etc. It is recommended to consult a professional doctor before using it. Acute neck injuries or acute attacks of cervical spondylosis are generally protected by medical neck braces. Inflatable neck braces should be used with caution or under the guidance of professional physicians.

As the inflatable neck brace is traction, the head is lifted up by pressing down on the shoulders and the reaction force generated by the chest and back. People with relatively thin stature will experience discomfort, and care must be taken when using them, especially thin women.

Instructions

After the neck brace is fixed on the neck, inflate slowly. When the head feels up, stop the inflation and observe for a few seconds. If there is no discomfort, you can try to continue inflating until there is tension at the back of the neck. After some patients have certain experience, they can inflate to the degree of pain relief or numbness. After inflation, according to the situation, generally relax for a period of time after 20 to 30 minutes, and then inflate for a period of time. During use, pay attention to observation. If there is suffocation, chest tightness, dizziness, pain or numbness, it is recommended to let go of the breath or adjust the position of the neck brace. If it does not work, stop using it immediately and ask a professional physician for guidance.

Precautions

Inflate slowly, enough to stop. When using an inflatable neck brace, many people always like to inflate the gas to the maximum. The idea is that the neck muscles can be fully loosened, and the inflation and deflation speed is very fast. This is often not appropriate. There is even a certain degree of danger.

Not necessary. Although not using an inflatable neck brace can improve the symptoms of neck pain to a certain extent, it is not recommended to use it every day. It is better to use it for a long time to relieve the symptoms. Long-term use will form dependence, weaken the normal function of the neck muscles, and the neck muscles will become “lazy”, resulting in disuse atrophy, leading to more serious other problems.
