- The belt is a protective gear commonly used for prevention and treatment of lumbar diseases. Its main function is to protect the local braking and stability of the lumbar spine. Generally divided into two categories: medical belts and sports belts. The protective area of the medical belt is usually relatively large, which can be covered almost from the chest down, and the steel bars designed according to the curvature of the human spine can effectively correct and support the lumbar spine, so as to achieve the effect of protecting the lumbar spine. The main function of the sports belt is to help you stabilize the core by enhancing the intra-abdominal pressure, so that you can prevent the instability of the core and cause waist injuries during exercise. Its protective area is around the abdominal cavity and the lumbar spine. Sports belts are generally hard in texture, and they are usually tightened when wearing to create a strong intra-abdominal pressure. Therefore, the human body is not in a natural state after wearing it, so it is not applicable in daily life.
- In use, due to the extensiveness of the protective area of the medical belt, it is necessary to pay attention to the appropriate degree of tightness after wearing the belt, so that the blood circulation of the skin cannot be blocked. If the wearing causes allergic dermatitis, it should be suspended and consult a doctor; When wearing a sports belt, you should be careful not to tighten it too tightly, so as not to break your ribs due to excessive force.
- Finally, I would like to remind you that you should wear different types of belts in different scenarios to achieve the effect of protecting the lumbar spine. Blind use of belts may bring unnecessary injuries to yourself.
