A recent aunt? Hanging your neck? Fitness videos have become popular on the Internet. The video shows that there are uncles and aunts hanging their necks on the big tree in the fitness corner of a park in Shenyang. Everyone hung their heads and their feet off the ground, swinging back and forth with the rope like a swing. ?

In my opinion, this kind of exercise not only fails to keep fit, but also is very dangerous. If the suspension is improper, it will have serious consequences. Therefore, I hereby appeal to everyone not to imitate this so-called hanging neck movement. Although it uses the principle of traction treatment of cervical spondylosis in Chinese medicine theory, it has great risks.

It is easy to cause high paraplegia.

Why do you say that paraplegia does not occur in hospitals, but it is easy to cause paraplegia in this park? Because we know that the maximum traction around our necks is 50 kilograms, which is 25 kilograms. If we pull normally in the hospital, the doctor will give you 50 Jin at most, but how do these grandmothers pull sports in the park? After hanging its neck, it can be hung to the lower limbs, so the weight of this traction is equivalent to your own weight. I think it must be more than the limit of 50 kg, so this traction is very easy to cause damage to the cervical spine. If this cervical vertebra is damaged, it will definitely cause cervical nerve strain, which is very easy to cause high paraplegia.

It is easy to cause cardiac arrest.

We know that because of our cervical vertebrae, there are great blood vessels leading to the brain on both sides. What about this neck vessel? We call it carotid artery. There is a very important switch in the carotid artery, which we call carotid sinus. It has baroreceptors, which can regulate our heartbeat and blood pressure and maintain its stability. If we press the carotid sinus on both sides, it will cause a sudden drop in heartbeat and blood pressure. In severe cases, there will be cardiac arrest.

It is easy to cause cerebral embolism.

Why does it cause cerebral embolism? Many of our elderly people have plaques in their neck blood vessels. If you do vascular B-ultrasound, you can find plaques in the neck blood vessels. If this traction is improper, it will repeatedly press the neck blood vessels, causing the neck blood vessels to rupture. As for plaque, it will easily run to the brain, leading to cerebral blood vessel blockage. Therefore, our neck movement must be very careful and must be carried out under the guidance of experts to avoid danger.
