The number of spine bending of primary and secondary school students in my country is expected to exceed 5 million

CCTV News: In June each year is the "Spinal Waking Waking Month" established by the International Spinal Bend Society. The survey shows that the number of spine bending in primary and secondary school students in my country is expected to exceed 5 million, and it is still increasing at a rate of about 300,000 per year.

In Fuchun Seventh Primary School in Fuyang District, Hangzhou City, Zhejiang Province, doctors are screening spine bending on the children.

Since last year, the Fuyang District Traditional Chinese Medicine Bone Injury Hospital has screened the fifth -year and eighth grade students in the district. The screening results show that the proportion of suspicious positive and diagnosis of spine is 9.2%, and the proportion of girls and boys is about 4: 1.

Screening data shows that the proportion of spine bending in junior high school girls is relatively high. In addition to the incorrect sitting and sleeping position, more than 80 % have learned to dance.

There is no obvious symptoms in the early days of the spine, it is not painful or itchy, and it does not see obvious physical malformations, so it is often ignored. In daily life, how to judge whether the child's spine is bending?

Xiao Bin, deputy chief physician of the spine surgery of Beijing Jishoutan Hospital: If it is a girl, you can pay attention to your mother (for the child). From the back to see if the shoulders on both sides are equivalent, whether the neck is sloping, and the waistline on both sides is symmetrical. Another easiest way is to do front flexion experiments: the feet are close to the shoulders with the shoulders, the fingers to the toe, and bending over 90 degrees. Parents can look at it from the front or from the back. If the height of both sides is discovered, then in this case, it is recommended to go to the hospital for further diagnosis.
