Run 1 hour a day, the second metatarsal fracture of the right foot
Mr. Yu lives in a residential area in Beibin Road, Chongqing, and runs almost one hour on Beibin Road every day . Even if it is raining, he still insisted on running, but to place the home on the treadmill is still run more than one hour a day.
One morning, I ran for more than half an hour. Mr. Yu suddenly felt the pain in the forefoot of his right foot. He felt pain when he stepped on the brakes on the road, so he drove directly to the hospital.
An X- ray examination was performed to show a fracture of the second metatarsal of the right foot. Mr. Yu is very confused, he did not wrestle or sprain, how can he fracture?
The doctor said that this is a fatigue fracture, also known as a stress fracture or a march fracture. It usually occurs in athletes, dancers, and soldiers. There are not many ordinary people, but the hospital orthopedics will always receive several cases each year. Like Mr. Yu, the time spent running every day is too long, the posture is not correct, and the ground is too hard, causing fatigue fractures.
Long-term overload exercise, wearing high heels may have fatigue fractures
"Many people don't know about fatigue fractures, which are caused by the repeated accumulation of chronic injuries. It is similar to the repeated folding of a wire and finally breaking it. Long-term over-carrying, overload running, etc., may result in such a fracture. "Tang Kang, professor of orthopedics at the Southwest Hospital, said.
Professor Tang said that fatigue fractures can occur on many bones of the human body, such as the calcaneus, humerus, humerus, and talus. The second and third metatarsal bones are the most common sites. "It's like the recovery and damage of the human body in the game. During the exercise, the bones are damaged by the pressure. When you sleep, you may recover the next day. However, if the damage is faster than the recovery, the damage will not catch up with the damage. The speed of the accumulation, to a certain extent, will occur stress fractures."
"The bone density of middle-aged and elderly people is weakened. If you run on a treadmill for a long time, you may induce fatigue fracture. Unlike our usual walking and running on the flat, the pace and stride on the treadmill are fixed. Running at a fixed rate can be induced."
For some women who love beauty, in order to maintain a tall and straight image, they have to wear high-heeled shoes for a long time, and even wear high-heeled shoes during sports and travel. This will cause excessive pressure on the soles of the feet, and it will easily cause fatigue fractures in the long run.
Most of the precursors are not obvious
Professor Tang said that the precursors of fatigue fractures are mostly not obvious. The patient may have a bit of soreness and pain in the beginning. Later, he went to the hospital and found that it was a fatigue fracture. Still others may have little feeling until they are discovered after a fracture.
"So Fitness exercise should be appropriate, whether it is running, playing or a bike." Professor Tang said, w if recurring ankle, foot pain or standing, difficulty walking, sitting and lying rest after pain relief, there may be fatigue Fractures should be promptly examined and treated. “Especially after a long journey, if there is pain in the front of the foot and it gradually worsens, you should be alert to the occurrence of fatigue fractures.â€
The treatment of fatigue fractures is relatively simple. Professor Tang said that after the fracture was found, he should take a proper rest for a period of time, and at the same time treat the disease, take the medicine, stick the plaster to relieve pain and reduce swelling, and also carry out physiotherapy such as hot compress to promote the symptom relief. Individuals with severe gypsum or splint fixation.
Fatigue fractures may occur at any age
Professor Tang said that people of any age may suffer from fatigue fractures, especially in adolescents whose bones are in the growth stage and middle-aged and elderly people whose bones begin to appear loose.
“There are still some people who like to hike in the mountains, but hiking in the mountains is far different from walking on the concrete road. At any time, the road surface will be uneven. Therefore, the walking posture needs to be adjusted. Whether it is going up or down the mountain, don’t worry. Stroke a big step, but should go slowly to a small step, so it is easy to maintain balance and block the danger, but also try to save physical strength to reduce fatigue." Professor Tang said.
There are also some "friends" who often have leg cramps cramps when they are hiking. It is likely that they are not related to the landing of the feet when climbing, or they have no choice but to settle down. On the plane, this is not only very difficult, but also costs a lot more power than the full foot landing to help the body to reach the balance of the heart, these unnecessary costs may make the leg muscles "can not eat" and cramps.
Therefore, when walking, you should look at your feet and choose the right foot to step down.
Exercise avoids repeating the same action for a long time
Professor Tang said that as long as the general public does not have heavy weight and exercise for a long time, overweight can properly reduce some weight, and the proper bone density will not suffer from fatigue fracture.
First of all, we must strengthen physical exercise, work and exercise properly, and avoid repeating the same action for a long time;
Secondly, during exercise, you should master the amount of exercise and the essentials of sports according to your own physique, and fully prepare for the event;
Third, people who lack exercise usually need to increase the amount of exercise step by step;
Fourth, avoid running and jumping in the hard place;
Fifth, choose a pair of soft, comfortable, fit shoes, no shoes.
