Mr. Zhang from Fengtai District: I have always felt that the neck and shoulders are sorely painful. Does the experts have any good exercise methods besides taking medicine?
Professor Xu Jianguo, Chairman of the Chinese Medical Association Pain Medicine Professional Committee: If you feel pain in the neck, shoulders, and back, you should first avoid the long-term desk. It is best to take a break after an hour. It is recommended that you try to do cervical spine exercises by: moving the top wall of the back of the head, holding it for a few minutes each time, then loosening it and repeating it. Or do shrug movement, head rice movement (suitable for neck, shoulder muscles, soreness, swelling, pain, etc.). The M word movement requires the head to move in eight directions, but avoid turning the head. The head is tilted in one direction for 5 seconds, then stood upright for 5 seconds, then tilted for 5 seconds in the next direction, thus repeating 8 directions.
In addition, it is recommended that you insist on aerobic exercise for more than 1 hour per day, such as jogging, brisk walking, ball sports, cycling, etc., and exercise flexibility.
