허리통증
허리통증이 있을 때 함부로 검사하지 않는 게 좋다는 건
과학적으로도 입증된 사실입니다.
아주 특정 조건에 해당되는 경우에만 검사를 받는 게 좋습니다.
허리통증이 전혀 없는 사람을 대상으로
척추 MRI 시행한 연구가 있습니다.
30에서 39세 사이의 참가자 가운데 절반 이상이
디스크에 이상이 있는 것으로 나왔습니다.
디스크가 퇴행하는 건 생각보다 흔한 일이다.
인구의 90%가 살면서 척추 디스크의 퇴행성 변화를 겪게 됩니다.
앞서 말한 연구에 따르면 60세 이상의 환자의
90%가 척추디스크에 이상이 있었지만
허리통증을 느끼지 않았다고 합니다.
그러니까 디스크 퇴행은 병리적인 현상이 아니라 노화의 한 부분입니다.
허리통증이 무엇이든 가장 좋은 치료법은
신체 활동이고 앞으로도 그럴 겁니다.
많이 움직일수록 통증은 줄어들고 더 활동적으로 지낼 수 있습니다.

Back pain
It is scientifically proven that unnecessary tests for back pain are not advisable.
Testing should only be conducted under very specific conditions.
There was a study conducted on individuals without any back pain,
where spine MRIs were performed.
Among participants aged 30 to 39,
over half were found to have abnormalities in their discs.
Disc degeneration is far more common than many people realize.
Around 90% of the population will experience degenerative changes
in their spinal discs over their lifetime.
According to the aforementioned study,
90% of patients over 60 had abnormalities in their spinal discs,
yet they did not experience any back pain.
This shows that disc degeneration is not a pathological condition
but rather a natural part of aging.
Regardless of the cause of back pain,
the best treatment is physical activity,
and this will likely remain true in the future.
The more you move, the less pain you will feel, and the more active you can be.
