Urutan terapi bagi kaki belakang (Sciatica)

Sciatica ialah rasa sakit di bahagian belakang kaki, bermula dari bahagian bawah sebelah tulang belakang (sama ada kiri atau kanan) melalui punggung dan terus turun ke bawah sehingga ke betis, jika digerakkan. Sakit ini akan bertambah apabila pengidapnya duduk atau berdiri terlalu lama, lebih-lebih lagi jika berdiri selepas duduk lama. Rasa sakit ini disebabkan saraf sciatica yang terhimpit. Semasa kesakitan ini, kaki menjadi lemah sehingga tidak boleh digerakkan.

Biasanya pesakit sciatica ini diberi ubat mengurangkan sakit, bengkak dan merehatkan otot. Pelbagai senaman regangan juga digunakan sebagai rawatan bagi pesakit ini. Pembedahan juga boleh dilakukan jika sciatica ini berpanjangan disebabkan oleh tekanan kepada saraf di bahagian bawah tulang belakang.

Selain daripada ubat dan rawatan yang biasa digunakan, sciatica ini juga boleh dirawat secara urutan terapi untuk melegakan dan mengurangkan rasa sakitnya. Urutan terapi untuk sciatica dipanjangkan di bawah ini untuk diamalkan oleh mereka yang memerlukannya….
