GET IN AND OUT OF THE CAR CORRECTLY- Sunday, May 21, 2017

GET IN AND OUT OF THE CAR CORRECTLY


                                   

                    FIGURE 20 – STEP ONE                  FIGURE 20A – STEP TWO

Getting into and out of the car incorrectly can easily harm your back. Unfortunately, some people have jobs and lifestyles that require frequent trips into and out of their automobiles. These people are likely hurting their backs and don’t know it. The correct way to get into your car is to stand with your buttocks towards the car door. From this position, squat or use hip rotation to step backwards into the car seat (FIGURE 20). Then, swing your legs around to the front of the car (FIGURE 20A). The incorrect way to get into the car is to stand sideways next to the door, bend away from the car, and plop into the seat. 

            You will get out of the car the same way as you entered it, but in the opposite order that you entered it. First, swing your legs around from the front of the car to the side (FIGURE 20B). Next, scoot all the way towards the edge of the seat and get up using your legs, not your back (FIGURE 20C). This method spares your back and decreases the risk of injury.

SIT PROPERLY IN THE CAR- Sunday, January 8, 2017

SIT PROPERLY IN THE CAR

Back injury is common from sitting incorrectly in the car. The driver’s and passenger’s seats must allow for the most ideal seated position. I do not recommend the driver or passenger try to maintain a dynamic seated position while driving. It is safer for the driver and passenger to ensure their seat is set for the most ideal seated position possible. The driver’s and passenger’s seats should allow for the legs and hips to be at 90 degrees. Use a lumbar support (www.backsafetyandwellness.com/products) to avoid forming the “C shape,” or hump, in the low back. Instead, a ski slope, or inverted “C-shape,” is desired. Do not flex the low back!

Do not shrug your shoulders. Some people place their arms on the door rest, which causes a constant shoulder shrug. Avoid this. In addition, drivers tend to place one arm on the steering wheel and shift their weight to one side. Again, try to avoid this. Rather, place both hands on the steering wheel. The arms and elbows, if possible, should be at 90 degrees. 

       

FIGURE 1

Do not position the head rest too far forward. Ideally, your head should rest against the head rest at the spot directly above the bump on the back of the head. If properly positioned, your head will appear slightly bent backward at 15-20 degrees as in FIGURE 1. 

The passenger should follow the same guidelines as the driver. Properly sitting in the car will allow you and your passenger to feel better after a long drive. 

USE A PHONE HEADSET- Sunday, October 16, 2016

USE A PHONE HEADSET

                                                           

                                            AVOID PUTTING YOUR EAR TO YOUR SHOULDER     

            Using a phone headset eliminates the possibility of torticollis, or muscles spasms in the neck, from improper phone usage. Repeatedly bending your head to your shoulder to hold a phone causes injury to the joints, muscles, and ligaments in the necK. It is also possible for injuries to these areas to cause referral pain and subsequent headaches. If use of a headset is not possible, alternate holding the phone with your right and left hand.   

USE A BOOK STAND WHILE READING- Thursday, September 15, 2016

            USE A BOOK STAND WHILE READING

                                             

                        Figure 1                                        Figure 1A

When you read, do not bend your head too far forward and down. To prevent improperly positioning your head while you read, use a book stand or an inclined reading surface. An incline of 12 degrees is enough to prevent the ill-effects of a bent head posture. However, many tables and reading surfaces are not made with this incline, so it is easier to purchase a book stand to hold your reading material upright (FIGURE 1 and 1A). A bookstand reduces possible muscle spasms, headaches, and pain from prolonged improper head positioning.

DO NOT SIT WITH SHRUGGED SHOULDERS- Sunday, August 7, 2016

DO NOT SIT WITH SHRUGGED SHOULDERS

Make sure your work station does not force you to sit with shrugged shoulders (SEE ABOVE). If you use a keyboard, it should not be elevated so that your shoulders are in a perpetually shrugged position. Likewise, do not use an elevated desk or rest your elbows on the desk or arms of the chair, as this forces shrugged shoulders. The desk height cannot typically be altered, which is why it is important to use an ergonomic chair that can be raised and lowered accordingly.      

POSITION YOUR COMPUTER MONITOR CORRECTLY- Sunday, July 24, 2016

          POSITION YOUR COMPUTER MONITOR CORRECTLY

  Hopefully, you don’t sit at a computer for longer than 50 minutes. However, if you do, make sure the computer monitor is positioned appropriately to prevent any back problems. Be certain the monitor is positioned so that there is no glare on the screen. Second, place the monitor so that your head is not too far forward or backward, and you don’t have to squint while looking at the screen. Please see the above picture for proper seated posture, while working at a computer.

ROCK BACKWARD AND FORWARD WHILE STANDING- Friday, July 1, 2016

ROCK BACKWARD AND FORWARD WHILE STANDING  

                

              FIGURE 1- FORWARD                 FIGURE 1A - BACKWARD

Evidence shows that you can develop chronic low back pain from excessive standing. This chronic low back pain seems to result from a lack of movement, specifically forward and backward, while standing. As a result, I suggest rocking backward and forward on the balls and heels of your feet. Please refer to FIGURES 1 and 1A. Rocking backward and forward is not something you do constantly. I recommend every five minutes you rock backward and forward for about 60 seconds. Again, there is no rule set in stone as to the frequency with which you should rock forward and backward, as it is based on your feeling. 


DON'T STAND TOO LONG- Sunday, June 5, 2016

DON'T STAND TOO LONG

As mentioned, I don’t believe excessive standing is as much of a problem as excessive sitting. However, standing can lead to chronic low back pain. To combat the potential effects of standing too long, I recommend taking a break from standing after every 20-30 minutes. Excessive standing is typically considered 50 minutes or longer, but I recommend 20-30 minutes because of spinal memory (see February 7th blog post). If your job or lifestyle requires prolonged standing, bring a stool to your workstation. I suggest sitting for a minute or two every 20-30 minutes. Combining a rest break after 50 minutes, and sitting every 20-30 minutes is a great way to avoid the effects of excessive standing. 

Another suggestion is to switch your weight-bearing foot. Every 10-15 minutes, switch your weight to your right foot. Stand with your weight on the right foot for one minute. Then, switch the weight to your left foot for one minute. Next, stand normally with the weight equally distributed on both feet. In another 10-15 minutes, switch weight-bearing feet again and repeat the process. A different way to accomplish this same concept is with a small step stool. Place the non weight-bearing foot on the small step stool and alternate feet as previously described.  There is no set rule to how frequently you should switch weight-bearing feet. Do what makes you feel best.     

STAND UP CORRECTLY FROM SITTING- Tuesday, April 19, 2016

STAND UP CORRECTLY FROM SITTING

                                        

                         Figure 1                                         Figure 2

Standing up correctly from the seated position is one of the most important things I tell patients they can do to spare their backs. It is also one of the easiest. Most people use their low backs to assist them in getting up from the seated position. This is wrong! Think about how many times you get up from sitting. Every time you use your low back to stand, you are flexing your spine and placing unnecessary stress onto it. Here is the easy solution:  before you get up from sitting, scoot all the way to the edge of your seated surface, keep your back straight, and get up using your legs, as in FIGURE 2. This may feel strange at first, but should become second nature after a few days. One tip to get started:  use your arms to assist your legs in the process (FIGURE 2). Place your hands into fists and use them to push up off the seated surface, while using your legs. Do not place your fists on your legs. Again, at no time will you flex the low back or use it to assist you in the standing process.

            Be sure to not bend your spine—keeping it neutral, as you sit down, too. Simply reverse this standing process, and use the same technique to sit down properly. 

STRETCH EVERY 20-30 MINUTES- Sunday, February 7, 2016

 STRETCH EVERY 20-30 MINUTES

                                                   

                       FIGURE 1 – REACH                     FIGURE 1A – SQUEEZE

Stretching every 20-30 minutes combats the effects of excessive sitting. It helps avoid the physiological effects of excessive sitting and the associated spinal memory. To perform the appropriate stretch, stand up and reach toward the ceiling (FIGURE 1). Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth. During exhalation, stretch higher toward the ceiling.  Next, with your palms pointed up, bring your arms down to the side of your body. Then, pretend you are holding a pencil between your shoulder blades and squeeze them together to prevent the pencil from falling. Inhale through your nose and exhale through your mouth. During this exhalation, hold the contraction of your shoulder blades together for 10 seconds (FIGURE 1A).  Relax. You have successfully completed the basic stretch needed to combat the effects of prolonged sitting. The entire stretch break will not take more than 30 seconds, yet its benefit will last exponentially longer. Repeat this stretch every 20-30 minutes, or as needed. 

DON'T SIT TOO LONG- Thursday, January 21, 2016

 DON’T SIT TOO LONG

Working conditions in the United States demand less physically of its workers now, than were required of its workers in the past. Most jobs now involve sitting rather than laborious tasks such as lifting, pulling, pushing, etc., yet disability claims for back pain have been increasing. This increase occurs because sitting can be more harmful to your body than physically demanding tasks. There is a definitive correlation between excessive sitting and low back disorders, such as disc herniations, also known as bulging discs. The solution is to avoid sitting for prolonged periods of time. A worker who sits longer than 50 minutes should stand up, take a walk, or stretch, though I recommend he shouldn’t sit longer than 20-30 minutes due to the effects of something called spinal memory, which I will discuss at a later time.     

            This information is particularly useful to any athlete, such as a baseball or basketball player, who sits for 20 minutes or longer before performing. Because sitting places your back in a stressful position, athletes are at a higher risk for injury if they immediately perform their athletic tasks after sitting for 20-30 minutes or longer. If an athlete must sit for an extended period of time before playing, he/she must remember to sit with proper posture, take stretch breaks, or use a lumbar support of some kind.

USE AN ERGONOMIC CHAIR- Thursday, January 7, 2016

USE AN ERGONOMIC CHAIR

     

                                      

                                    FIGURE 1 – BASIC ERGONOMIC CHAIR

The most ideal seated position is one that changes. An ergonomic chair allows you to adopt different seated positions more easily than regular chairs. Be sure the ergonomic chair allows seat adjustments forward, backward, and side-to-side. It needs to have an adjustable seat height and wheels. If it has arms (which is not necessary), be sure the arms are height adjustable. Do not place your shoulders in a shrugged position. It is equally important that the chair allows for a slight recline. In fact, 95-105 degrees is the ideal seat back position, not 90 degrees. The ergonomic chair in FIGURE 1 is a basic ergonomic chair. I featured this chair to show that it is not necessary to spend a fortune on an ergonomic chair to reap its benefits. 

Last month's blog discussed the importance of using a lumbar support. You may use a lumbar support in combination with an ergonomic chair. However, not all ergonomic chairs will require the use of a lumbar support.

USE A LUMBAR SUPPORT- Sunday, December 13, 2015

       USE A LUMBAR SUPPORT

                             

                       CHAIR                                   CAR

      My previous blog discussed how to sit properly. You should know by now that sitting is harmful, but sometimes necessary. When sitting, it's important to sit with proper posture. But when that is not feasible, the next best option is to use a lumbar support. Most seated surfaces are designed for comfort, but fail to provide proper support for the back. This lack of support can cause disc herniations, also known as bulging discs. It is this repetitive misuse that leads to 85% of low back injuries. To prevent injury from sitting improperly, use a lumbar support. Lumbar supports are inexpensive and may be transferred to different seated areas (see images above). Most cars are equipped with an inherent lumbar support. However, I believe an accessory lumbar support is more efficient. Make sure you are using it correctly. If used correctly, your low back will not have a “C-shaped” hump while you use the support, and you won’t slouch. The lumbar support should not come up higher than the bottom of your shoulder blade. 

      You may visit our "Products" section to find the exact lumbar support that I recommend. 

      How to Sit Properly- Thursday, October 15, 2015

      How to Sit Properly

      FIGURE 1

      The perfect seated position is one that changes. There is no ideal seated position, because it is the act of sitting that is inherently bad. However, let’s say you are required to sit for an hour without moving, while working at a computer. In this situation, there is a way to sit that will do the least amount of harm. To clarify, this advice applies to the person who is not able to stand up and stretch for a rest break OR use an ergonomic chair. In this instance, the perfect seated position involves having perfect posture (FIGURE 1). Note the head is balanced in neutral position, meaning it’s not too far forward or backward. Neutral position involves a slight chin tuck—almost as if you are on the verge of a double-chin, but not as extreme. The back is erect with the shoulders pulled back, hips are moved backward at 90 degrees (avoiding the “C-shaped” hump in the low back), feet are flat on the floor, shoulders are not shrugged, elbows are at 90 degrees and wrists are not bent. If you are not working at a computer, you need not worry about your elbows and wrists. However, don’t shrug your shoulders. Note there is a lumbar support to induce extension into the low back and prevent slouching.

                  A person, who cannot change positions or take a stretch break while sitting, may sit on a “vestibular disc.” A vestibular disc as an inflatable, 1-2 inch thick cushion that health care practitioners typically use to restore balance. These special “cushions” force you to keep a dynamic seated position. I’ve witnessed numerous patients in clinic improve their back pain and discomfort after sitting on vestibular discs. Because I’ve personally seen their benefit, I’m comfortable recommending them for you. I suggest sitting on one (with the smooth surface facing up) for 20-30 minutes out of an hour for the first week or two of use. If you don’t experience discomfort after 20-30 minutes out of the hour, try sitting on the disc for the entire hour. I don’t recommend sitting on an exercise ball, as research does exist stating the disadvantages of using an exercise ball DO NOT exceed the advantages.

      STEP FORWARD TO REACH- Thursday, August 13, 2015

      STEP FORWARD TO REACH

                         GOOD FORM                                    BAD FORM

      An alternative to flexing/bending your back to reach for an object is to step forward. Keep your spine neutral as you step forward to reach for an object to prevent the use of your spine and protect your back. Notice the difference between the two photos. With good form, the back is neutral (straight), whereas bad form demonstrates a flexed back with that nasty “C-shape” that you want to avoid. Cycles of bending forward and coming up, or extending, cause back injuries. Stepping forward to reach is an alternative to flexion and extension of the spine.  

      AVOID IMPROPER BENDING AFTER SITTING FOR 20 MINS- Sunday, July 12, 2015

      AVOID IMPROPER BENDING AFTER SITTING FOR 20 MINS


      The muscles, discs, and ligaments of the spine adapt to sustained positions. For example, after 20 minutes of sitting, the soft tissues of your body retain the flexed (bent), seated position. So, if you were to flex your spine, which is the incorrect way to bend after sitting for 20 minutes, you would put your spine at risk for injury. This concept is called “spinal memory.” Similarly to lying down for 2-3 hours, I do not recommend improperly flexing (bending) your spine for 30 minutes after you’ve sat for at least 20 minutes. Give the spine time to “forget” the previously adapted position. If you must bend your back within that 30 minute time period, squat or use a hip rotation. 


      DONT' BEND AFTER LYING DOWN FOR SEVERAL HOURS- Sunday, June 28, 2015

      DONT' BEND AFTER LYING DOWN FOR SEVERAL HOURS

      The spine consists of discs in between each vertebra, which allow for movement and cushion. These discs are primarily made of fluid, which is lost during the day and reabsorbed while you sleep, in a process known as disc imbibition. In fact, we lose up to 19 mm of height each day from the loss of disc fluid! After lying down for 2-3 hours, the discs reabsorb their lost fluid and are at full size. When they are full size, the potential stresses placed on the discs are increased by 300%. As a result, it is imperative not to flex/bend your spine for one hour after you have rested for at least 2-3 hours. If you must bend during this time, try squatting, stepping forward, or rotating at yoru hips. Avoiding flexion of the spine after 2-3 hours of lying down is a great way to protect your back. Please understand, that I’m not saying you can’t bend during these aforementioned times, I’m saying it is especially important that you bend the CORRECT way.

      AVOID REPEATED FLEXION/EXTENSION- Thursday, May 21, 2015

       AVOID REPEATED FLEXION/EXTENSION                                          

      Repeatedly bending forward and subsequently straightening your spine is known as flexion and extension. Cyclic full spine flexion and extension may cause stress fractures in the spine and displaced vertebra, also known as a spondylo. The discs between your vertebrae are vulnerable to this repetition as well and can become injured. A patient of mine worked in a deli at a grocery store. Her job required repeatedly bending down to remove products from the refrigerated display, which caused her spinal discomfort. We discussed ways to alter her work environment so she did not exacerbate her condition and she improved. Had she known what to avoid, she never would have had the issue in the first place. One alternative to repeatedly bending down and coming back up is stepping forward to reach for the item, instead of bending down if possible.

      THREE BACK PAIN MYTHS AND THE TRUTH BEHIND THEM- Tuesday, December 30, 2014

      THREE BACK PAIN MYTHS AND THE TRUTH BEHIND THEM

      1.     “I’m too young, and in too good of shape, to get back pain.” Each time I speak to people about back pain, I get the same reaction. People aged 45 and older pay attention to what I say. The people aged 44 and younger couldn’t care less. Why? Because most people believe back pain only affects the elderly or out-of-shape population. This belief cannot be further from the truth. Low back pain is the number one reason people aged 45 and younger seek health care services. The spine is the most frequently injured part of the body in most workman’s comp cases. The discs in between each vertebra, that cushion your spine and provide movement, can start to degenerate before you hit puberty.

      Now, close your eyes and think of ten people. It doesn’t matter their age, race, gender, whether they’re in shape, or out of shape, rich or poor. Eight of these ten people will experience back pain at some point in their lives. Pay attention, because it doesn’t matter your age or whether you’re in good shape. You are at risk for back pain.

      2.      “My back pain will just go away on its own.” Patients entering my clinic frequently come in with the mindset that something very serious is happening to them because they’ve had lingering back pain that won’t go away. Why? Because the majority of people believe their back pain will go away on its own. And, if it doesn’t, it must not be back pain. It must be something more serious. Right? Wrong. Low back pain is typically not self-limiting--it won’t just stop on its own. In fact, almost 50% of people that have back pain will still have pain after one year. And if you’ve already had back pain, you have a 40% chance of getting back pain again within the same year. On a side note, 90% of back pain is usually just a simple backache. Less than two percent of back pain is from a serious spinal problem. Get your back pain fixed. It’s probably not going away.

      3.      “I know what caused my back pain.” Patients ask me all the time, “What did I do to cause my back pain?” And I’ll say, “Probably what you’re doing now.” Of course, the patient will look at me confused because he/she is just sitting. So why do I say this? Because the majority of back pain (approximately 86%) is caused by repetitive misuse, or doing things the wrong way for a long time. It’s likely your back pain was caused by you performing the same tasks the wrong way for a long time. Think of the spine as a long row of dominoes. Each time you perform a task the wrong way, you knock down one of those dominoes until they all fall down. When this last domino falls, your back “goes out.” It didn’t “go out” because you bent down to put on your shoes last night. Your back went out because you’ve bent down to put on your shoes the wrong way for five years. Your back “went out” because you’ve sat for eight consecutive hours at your job every day. Your back “went out” because you’ve picked up children improperly at a day care every day. Get the point? It’s imperative that you learn the proper way to perform daily tasks and activities so you don’t play dominoes with your spine.

      AVOID FLEXION OF THE SPINE- Sunday, November 9, 2014

      AVOID FLEXION OF THE SPINE

      What is flexion of the spine? Flexion, also known as bending, occurs when you bend forward to pick up an object off the floor, tie our shoes, etc. The action of repeatedly fully bending the spine is a risk factor for low back disorders and causes disc herniations in the spine.  In addition, bending our spine for a prolonged period of time will damage the back. Note the “C-shaped” hump in the low back of FIGURE 1. This “C-shaped” hump indicates flexion of the spine and incorrect bending. Whenever you see this “C-shape” in the low back, you are bending incorrectly! 

      It is best to avoid repeated and prolonged flexion of the spine. It is also important to understand that every time you bend forward, you must extend your back to get up again. This act of straightening your back after bending forward is called extension. Cycles of bending forward and coming back up cause low back problems. Flexion and extension can harm your back without lifting an object. It is simply the act of flexing and extending that is inherently bad.  Eliminating flexion of the spine is critical to protecting your back.

      BREAST CANCER PREVENTION- Sunday, October 12, 2014

      BREAST CANCER PREVENTION

      As most know, October is breast cancer awareness month. To help promote this cause, outlined for you are several tips to help you better understand some risk factors associated with breast cancer and the possible prevention of it.

      • 1. Perform regular self-exams for lumps, discoloration, or any other abnormalities. Not sure how to perform a self-exam? Ask your primary care physician, or try an online search. Simply relying on a mammogram may not be your best option. The United States Preventative Services Task Force, or USPSTF, found over a 25 year study that women aged 40-59, who received an annual mammogram, did not reduce their risk of mortality from breast cancer. Furthermore, 22% of invasive breast cancers were over-diagnosed when discovered with a mammogram.
      • 2. Stay Active. Try to exercise at least 30 minutes a day. Another study indicates you may have a 35% less likely chance of developing breast cancer if you exercise regularly.
      • 3. Eat Properly. Consuming red meat daily increases your likelihood of developing breast cancer by almost twice the amount. You don’t have to eliminate red meat completely, but try to resort to eating it maybe once or twice a week. However, if you eat 3-6 servings of fruits and vegetables daily, your risk of developing breast cancer is cut by 50%. Please note that one-third of the vegetables and fruits you consume should be raw. This statistic does not mean you can consume daily amounts of red meat because its damage will be offset by your 3-6 servings of fruits and veggies.
      • 4. Bra Usage. Believe it or not, women who wear their bra for more than 12 hours a day are 50% more likely to develop breast cancer. Let them breathe a little bit!
      • 5. Avoid Chlorine. Woman with high levels of chlorine in their bodies have a 10 times higher likelihood of developing breast cancer. That’s TEN TIMES more likely! What is the major source of chlorine? Drinking water. Most filters will eliminate chlorine from tap water, so be sure to drink properly filtered water.

      These suggestions are not bulletproof and do not guarantee you immunity from breast cancer. However, these suggestions certainly won’t hurt your odds of developing the cancer, and can only help you. Prevention is key!
