Nowadays, more and more people pay special attention to the method of meridians health preservation, and for the mouse hand, a common disease in life, people can use the acupoint massage method of meridians to treat, while the specific acupoint massage method of mouse hand can be understood according to the following description.
Early performance of mouse hand:
1. Pain: "mouse hand" pain is caused by local compression of nerves and blood vessels in the carpal canal, which causes the symptoms of the corresponding control area. The volar side of the wrist, index finger and middle finger are obvious, and the relief is not obvious after the rest, because the nerve compression will not be relieved due to the rest. In severe cases, the pain is obvious at night, which can be extended to the arm, neck and shoulder, and accompanied by stiff activities of fingers and carpal joints, pain and weather changes It doesn't matter.
2. Abnormal sensation of the wrist and fingers: if the wrist is sore, numb, itchy and burning for a long time, and the pain is not relieved after rest, it is caused by long-term compression and strain of the wrist, entrapment of the median nerve in the carpal canal, and nerve reactive injury. Some people will confuse carpal joint tenosynovitis with it. Tenosynovitis is aseptic inflammation caused by repeated friction and strain of tendon in the tendon sheath. It is manifested as pain on the back of wrist, not on the palmar side. It is friction pain of tendon. It can be accompanied by cyst on the back of wrist, but it will not appear numbness pain of fingers in the innervated area due to the injury of median nerve.
3. Reduction of grip strength and muscle atrophy: chronic strain and other factors make the tissues in the carpal canal pressed for a long time, and the damage of nerve and blood vessels aggravate, so that the muscles dominated by it will atrophy, resulting in the decrease of muscle strength, grip strength and coordination ability.
The treatment of "mouse hand" focuses on prevention. During work, the keyboard should be placed in front of the body to avoid leaning the keyboard to one side and facing the keyboard when typing. Otherwise, it is easy to cause excessive tension of the wrist. The wrist should be placed as flat as possible to operate the keyboard, neither bending nor sagging. The keyboard and mouse should be used at the same height as the elbow. To prevent the carpal tunnel from being over pulled, operate the mouse for two hours and rest for 30 minutes. During the working period, the wrist joint should be extended and relaxed irregularly.
In case of symptoms, it is suggested to stop wrist joint activity for 1-2 weeks, give local physical therapy, massage, acupuncture and moxibustion at Hegu, endowment, Waiguan, Yangxi and other acupoints, and take anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs orally. Those with obvious pain can be fixed in wrist joint function position with plaster.
Carpal tunnel syndrome belongs to the category of "tendon injury" in traditional Chinese medicine, which is caused by overwork, accumulated tendon injury, or cold, resulting in stagnation of Qi and blood, unable to nourish meridians. Therefore, proper joint brake and self-function exercise are helpful for disease prevention and treatment. For example, after work, massage the carpal joint, press the healthy thumb pulp on the affected carpometacarpal side, put the other four fingers on the dorsal side, and massage with appropriate force To relax the muscles and activate the collaterals to relieve pain, once a day and once a day in the afternoon, for 10 minutes each time, you can also knead the acupoints of the affected limb, such as Neiguan, daling, pension, etc., to regulate the Shujing, Tongluo, Huoxue and analgesic, the kneading scale should not be too heavy to feel the acid swelling, three times a day, five minutes each time.
