This One Condition Can Put The Lives Of Office-Goers At Risk!
Read to know about this one health problem that can affect office-goers.
This little known condition is known to affect the lives of all office goers. This serious health condition can threaten the lives of office goers.
Gluteus medius tendinopathy, commonly known as dead butt syndrome is a risk for people who sit too long. This condition results in the gluteus muscles forgetting that they have to work at all or distribute the load to other body parts.
If you don't get up from your desk every 2 hours for 5-15 minutes, overtime your muscle tone decreases and pain begins in the waist, knees and pelvis.
The human body is a complex system that suffers as a whole, if one part of it breaks down.
The gluteus muscles serves as buffers during the movement. If they weaken, the load is distributed unevenly which may lead to serious injuries.
To find out if you have signs of this disease, you need to take a simple step. You need to rise and lift a leg. If the hip of that leg sags, then your gluteus muscles are weakened.
This condition is one of the most common causes of hip pain and inflammation. The glute med is a deep hip muscle on the lateral aspect of the hip that functions to stabilize the hip and control hip motion.
Some of the symptoms that show up when you're affected by this condition are as follows:
- Pain on the outside of the hip which is worse during activities like running, climbing stairs or getting in and out of car.
- Pain which gradually gets worse and often causes pain in the night.
- Pain when lying on that side of the hip.
- Pain which radiates down the outside of the thigh.
People who primarily follow a sedentary lifestyle should follow some rules in order to avoid this problem from occurring.
- Rise from your chair regularly and warm up your legs ot just stand a bit.
- Go up and down the stairs for at least a couple of hours.
- Do exercises that activate the gluteus muscles like squats or leg stretches.
- Make a crab posture to reinforce the gluteus muscles.
- Alternatively lift and lower your legs under the desk.
- Purchase a gym ball and sit on it instead of a chair.
Here, we have also listed some of the treatment options that you can go for to cure this condition.
- Rest from aggravating activities.
- Apply ice to the area.
- Take anti-inflammatory medication that are prescribed by the doctor.
- Go for physiotherapy to help correct the muscle imbalance.
- Orthotics can help correct foot biomechanics.
- A steroid injection followed by rest will help relax the symptoms.
- Surgery is required if the injury progresses too far.
