Being often angry and anxious will cause pain in the waist and legs no matter how you treat it? Doctor: Mentality affects the effect

Some scholars have put forward this theory: "The human body is controlled by the mind, and a good mentality is the best way to maintain health." Have you ever discovered that sometimes your illness does not get better no matter how you treat it? , and may even become aggravated inexplicably. Take for example lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spinal stenosis, sciatica, lumbar muscle strain and other low back pain and leg pain. Many patients still feel continuous pain after taking medication, and some patients have pain all year round.

So what's going on?

If you rule out the unsatisfactory effect of treatment on low back and leg pain, as well as weather and other reasons, you should look for the reason from your own psychological state.

The human body is easily affected by mood and emotions. In the United States, research on the impact of laughter on pain began 30 years ago. Research has found that positive emotions such as "happy" and "interesting" can enhance immunity, relieve pain, and have a positive impact on the body.

When the body suffers pain, the body has a force that tries to change the pain. One of this force is a substance called endorphin. This substance, also known as "brain morphine," has analgesic and mood-improving effects. When people are happy, this substance in the human body will be secreted vigorously, making people feel less pain.

On the contrary, if a person is depressed, angry, anxious, etc. every day, the secretion of this "morphine in the brain" will be reduced, and the pain in the waist and legs will be aggravated.

Patients with lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spinal stenosis, lumbar muscle strain, sciatica, etc. are mostly chronic diseases, which sometimes seriously affect the patient’s normal life. For example, they need to take time off and cannot work, and the pain is so severe that they cannot sleep at night. Etc., these can easily make patients become anxious, depressed, irritable, etc. Therefore, the pain of many patients with low back and leg pain generally comes from two aspects, one is the pain caused by the disease itself, and the other is the pain caused by bad emotions.

For low back and leg pain caused by the disease itself, it needs to be actively treated in regular medical institutions. Believe in doctors and the current medical level. You must know that most patients can take medicines such as Yaotongning, or combine it with hot compress, acupuncture, Massage, etc. can relieve pain and control the disease well. Only a few patients with severe lumbar disc herniation and lumbar spinal stenosis will consider surgical treatment. Even surgery, as far as the current medical level is concerned, is a very common operation, with high safety and effectiveness. Therefore, patients with low back and leg pain can relax. Among the many treatments, there is always a treatment that is suitable for you and can help you get out of the predicament of low back and leg pain.

When low back pain or leg pain affects your life, you should adjust your mentality. Don’t care too much about this or that. Don’t be angry or anxious about everything. Deal with it calmly. Treat yourself as much as possible. Chat with others, listen to humorous jokes and stories, exercise regularly, etc. In short, you must do everything possible to maintain a good mood and reduce back and leg pain caused by bad emotions and stress.

Finally, I would like to remind everyone that for lumbar disc herniation, lumbar spinal stenosis, sciatica and other diseases, many patients are treated in irregular institutions or believe in folk secret recipes, etc., resulting in long-term recovery of the disease. He thought that his waist and leg pain was hopeless, so he was depressed and angry all day long, letting these bad emotions accompany him all the time, causing the pain to worsen. Therefore, when treating low back and leg pain, everyone must receive scientific and systematic treatment in a regular medical institution. The doctor will judge what kind of therapy is suitable for you and how to change the therapy.
