Pain during wake up, why?

Not a few complaints of back pain experienced by the patient and the complaint is increasingly feel pain or become heavy on waking.
Did you ever feel the same? These complaints are most often felt by older people, but there are also teenagers and young adults who complained about this.
Actually, most back pain caused by muscle pain and other causes that may own the spine, nerves or the presence of infection and so forth.
So back to it consisting of the spine or backbone and back muscles also function to move the spine earlier. While the backbone itself has a function to hold the body so that in an upright position, other than that bone is also to refute the chest cavity and protects the nerves around it.
Head and body weight we have reached 50% of total body weight and muscles are all supported earlier. So for example we are conducting activities that raised his head and body with some time eg 2 hours more, for example if we sit without leaning over 3 hours, then this will cause the muscles to work extra hard and will cause muscle pain later.
In addition to the above there are several causes of muscle back pain the other:
1. Spinal deformity such as a crooked spine, such as scoliosis, lordosis or kyposis, it usually comes from a genetic disorder.
2. Causes of back pain that is caused by the individual himself is overweight so that load the spine to hold the body become heavy.
3. Lifting heavy objects repeatedly and unnecessarily, as it should be noted how to stay safe backbone.


Later in the elderly is also worth noting the existence of aging / degenerative diseases of all organs including bone and muscle back earlier. Usually the parents a lot of cases of back pain due to decreased function of bearing spine or intervertebral Discus (see picture next to degenerative disc).
Normally, this disc serves to reduce the burden or as a cushion vertebrae, but in older people will experience a decline in function due to reduced ability to absorb water earlier disc.
Finally Discus This will thin out and will stand out from the spine so that the burden will be pinched nerve around (see picture beside the herniated disc), this is a lot of the cause of back pain in older people.
Another cause of back pain that is caused by a bed that is used is too soft or too hard that will create the backbone shape will change and balance the muscles are also affected.
How short-term solution?
We recommend that the elderly have to multiply the sport, because with this sport will be able to increase endurance and avoid the possibility of degenerative diseases that arise.
Not all sports are suitable for the elderly, exercise that is suitable for the elderly is the high road with a speed adjusted to the ability, if the sport is run regularly, it will make the back muscles become stronger and will make it back to be stable, then other sports matches is gymnastics, especially movements that involve a lot of back muscles.

As for the teenagers and young adults more complaints like this because due to the back muscles, so the solution with emphasis on sports, if the complaints have not subsided, you should see her doctor immediately, because of complaints it could not come from the back but comes from a place other.

When on an airplane, why do we hurt the ears and head?

If we are going to fly would imagine how it feels .. shadow Well, what if the plane when we actually feel uncomfortable because we felt ears and head hurt so badly even the head feels like going to explode?
Is this situation normal? This is called Occlusion Tubal or a blockage in the fallopian tubes in the ears. Tuba eustachius / Eusthacian tube is a channel that starts from the middle ear and ended up behind the nose or base of the throat area. This channel serves to balance the air pressure in the middle ear and outside air pressure. When the pressure difference then this channel will open and allow air into the middle ear so that the pressure to be balanced.

When can the pressure difference is? If we want to get on a plane, when the aircraft was about to take off or landing or when the plane up and down in the air, our ears will feel like a full or a dead end or a bit less heard, this is caused by the pressure difference as before. Usually we will immediately respond to swallow that our hearing became normal again. With this swallowed will cause the tube open and outside air can enter ketelinga the middle.
In some people with disorders in Tuba eustachius or longer in people who have the flu / cold will occur is difficult to balance the pressure (when the aircraft in the air) so that air can not enter the middle ear and middle ear resulted in a vacuum, in circumstances like this channel the tubes were going to respond by reducing the middle ear space and attract the surrounding tissue for pressure somewhat balanced, and this response that causes incredible pain as the head going to explode. What's the solution?
In particular orang2 with disturbances in the fallopian tubes or the flu again, if you want to get on a plane should use nose drops that serves to open the fallopian tubes, the time before leaving (or can be by oral decongestant drug / drunk), how to dribble on the right nasal and left, having dropped his head must tilt the same direction for about 5 minutes, so when the right nasal drops, then the head tilted to the right to liquids into the ear. When on the plane over 8 hours, can be repeated in this way and done in the plane.
For tubal open continuously, perbanyaklah swallowed, one simple way is to suck candy, because candy will suck out saliva and inevitably we will be swallowed earlier. Therefore, before the plane would take off flight attendants will distribute candy, sometimes sweets were distributed by flight attendants considered to be part of the service and directly cepat2 spent before the plane took off, but ideally before dikulum pelan2 candy along the way for us to swallow continuously.
Another way is to evaporate, because when we yawn, the air will come out of the ear, so the pressure will be maintained.
Especially in anak2 or baby do not need ears covered with cotton (many in this way advise the parents) but enough to be drinking a lot at the time of aircraft in the air, as by swallowing, the tube will be open continuously. Covering the ears with cotton is not effective to overcome tubal occlusion in children, this is only useful way to reduce airplane noise. So when a plane carrying a small child and her son began to fuss should be made to drink water or milk, since she might have had tubal occlusion.

One of the important preparation is to ensure good nutrition and enough so that the mother and later her womb healthy and strong. "Mothers who are malnourished can cause a variety of risks for the child," said Tuti Ariyani, doctors nutritionists from Mediros Hospital, Jakarta. Risks that could arise, for example, premature birth or birth defects.


Tuti said, the adequacy of this nutrient should be increased before the mother is pregnant, during pregnancy, and postpartum. "Intake must be increased approximately four to six months before becoming pregnant," she said.

M. Lutfi Alkaff, the obstetrician from Sardjito Hospital, Yogyakarta, explained that the necessity gelontoran adequate nutrition before pregnancy is not without reason. Good nutrition in determining the quality of eggs that will be fertilized sperm. If good quality eggs, the chances the baby is born healthy and grow even larger.

During pregnancy, the supply of nutrition for the mother must also be sufficient. Because during pregnancy, the mother should feed two people, himself and the baby is still in the stomach. Not to forget, after giving birth or while breastfeeding, a mother also must have good nutrition for mother's milk that is produced can also provide nutrition for your baby

Then the intake of what it must be satisfied by a pregnant woman? Tutik give an example, if the usual condition of a person requiring 1700 calories a day, then when pregnancy calorie needs could reach 2000.


"When the nursing needs of these calories can rise again until 2200 per day," he said.

In addition to calories, protein is also important. If the mother usually takes 10 grams per day and then when the pregnant she needs to go up to 12 grams to 15 grams per day. Another important nutrient for pregnant women is folic acid.


Lack of folic acid will reduce the ability of blood to carry oxygen. As a result, your body is easy to feel tired and lethargic. For the fetus, folate deficiency can result in worse. Derivative of vitamin B deficiency can make your baby has a cleft lip, low weight, and birth defects known as neural tubee defects (NTD).

Well, according to Lutfi, folic acid should be given after the first trimester of pregnancy. Folic acid is easily found in nuts, fruits, and green vegetables. To increase folate intake, the mother may only consume milk or supplements containing folate.

When pregnant, women may also experience blood deficiency or anemia. Thus, women need adequate iron. But iron supplements are not given during the first trimester of pregnancy. "Iron can make mothers feel more nausea and vomiting," said Lutfi.


Iron supplements can be given to the mother when it enters the second trimester of pregnancy. For your body getting ready for pregnancy, mothers can complete nutritional intake by consuming milk or fish oil. Milk good for reducing the risk of osteoporosis or bone loss in pregnant women.

However, according to Tuti, milk is just a complement. "With milk consumption, it does not mean women should not eat a source of nutrition alarm," he said. The mothers who were pregnant should not be negligent to eat a variety of vegetables and fruits to meet nutritional needs.
