Abstract
Degenerative-dystrophic lesion of the thoracic spine is one of the most common diseases among the adult population. Therefore, there is a problem of improving the methods of rehabilitation of the spine. As you know, modern life almost does not provide a muscular load for most professions. Hypokinesia, forced position of the body under various types of work, unstable nutrition contributes to the development of osteochondrosis of the spine, even at an early age. Biochemical and metabolic processes in the spine are quite complicated and worsen with age. This disease often manifests itself chronically and brings a lot of suffering to man. Due to significant achievements in medicine, physical rehabilitation and other related disciplines, it was possible to study more deeply the essence of the pathological process in this disease. However, there is no single approach in the interpretation of etiology and pathogenesis, no comparison of neurological manifestations and orthopedic changes in adjacent tissues with this disease. The purpose of the work is to show the effectiveness of the selected set of methods of physical rehabilitation in men with degenerative-dystrophic lesions of the thoracic spine of men. The article presents modern approaches to the theoretical and practical aspects of modern medicine and rehabilitation about degenerative-dystrophic defeat of the thoracic spine. The problem, methods, the efficiency of physical rehabilitation means with the diagnosis are shown. To evaluate the functional status of the body of the patients, the following methods of medical-biological research were used: algometry, method of linear measurements (bending); Goniometry (measurement of the angle of the spine from the vertical axis, lateral inclination of the body); measurement of mobility of the thoracic spine (extension, rotation). In the work, the following methods of physical rehabilitation were used: exercise therapy, post-isometric relaxation, hydrocolonosis therapy (exercise in water), hydromassage, therapeutic massage. The presented materials convincingly indicate that the use of physical rehabilitation facilities in patients with degenerative-dystrophic lesion of the thoracic spine gives a tangible positive effect, which allows to significantly reduce the time of rehabilitation in the complex treatment of spinal osteochondrosis, provides a long remission. Rational and complex use of them contributes to the rapid passage of the disease, reducing the inflammatory process, preventing complications, reducing the pain syndrome, the lack of localization of foci in the spine and reducing the force of loading on each vertebra, the rapid rehabilitation of the functional properties of the spine. Despite destructive changes in the spine, reliable etiopathogenesis, the clinic and correctly applied therapeutic and rehabilitation measures with the use of non-pharmacological treatment methods have made it possible to recover the health of this category of patients. The urgency and, undoubtedly, the practical significance of this problem served as prerequisites for this study. To evaluate the functional status of the body of patients, we used the following methods of medical-biological research: algometry, method of linear measurements (bending); Goniometry (measurement of the angle of the spine from the vertical axis, lateral inclination of the body); measurement of mobility of the thoracic spine (extension, rotation). The following methods of physical therapy were used in the work: exercise therapy, postisometric relaxation, hydrocolonosis therapy (exercises in water), hydromassage, therapeutic massage.
