Pressure on the nerve can cause abnormal sensations, commonly experienced as electric shock pains.
神經壓迫會導致“感覺異常”,通常癥狀為電擊痛。
When the compression occurs in the cervical (neck) region, the shocks go down your arms,when the compression is in the lumbar (low back ) region, the shocks go down your legs.
若頸部神經受擠壓,臂部就會感到疼痛,若下背部受擠壓,腿部就會疼痛。
TINGLING & NUMBNESS
刺痛&麻木
Patients often have abnormal sensations such as tingling, numbness, or pins and needles.
通常,病患都會出現刺痛、麻木、針刺感等“感覺異?!薄?/p>
These symptoms may be experienced in the same region as painful electric shock sensations.
以上癥狀還會出現在相同部位。
MUSCLE WEAKNESS
肌肉乏力
Because of the nerve irritation, signals from the brain may be interrupted causing muscle weakness.
由于神經紊亂,大腦信號遭受干擾,導致肌肉乏力。
Nerve irritation can also be tested by examining reflexes.
通過反射檢測,我們可以了解神經紊亂情況。
WHAT ARE SYMPTOMS OF A HERNIATED DISC?
椎間盤突出癥狀
The symptoms of a herniated disc depend on the exact level of the spine where the disc herniation occurs and whether or not nerve tissue is being irritated.
要了解椎間盤病癥,我們要看脊椎的的受損程度,神經組織是否遭到破壞。
A disc herniation may not cause any symptoms.
有時,椎間盤突出也會無癥狀表現。
However, disc herniation can cause local pain at the level of the spine affected.
然而,受損脊椎會出現疼痛感。
If the disc herniation is large enough, the disc tissue can press on the adjacent spinal nerves that exit the spine at the level of the disc herniation.
若椎間盤突出面積過大,椎間盤周圍組織擠壓脊神經,導致脊神經從脊髓分離。
This can cause shooting pain in the distribution of that nerve and usually occurs on one side of the body.
通常情況下,身體一側會感到神經刺痛。
For example, a disc herniation at the level between the fourth and fifth lumbar vertebrae of the low back can cause a shooting pain down the buttock into the back of the thigh and down the leg.
比方說,若下背部4-5節椎骨發生椎間盤突出,從臀部到大腿后部,再到腿部都會感到疼痛。
Sometimes this is associated with numbness and tingling in the leg.
有時,腿部麻木和刺痛也與它有關。
The pain often is worsened upon standing and decreases with lying down.
站立加重疼痛,躺臥減輕疼痛。
If the disc herniation is extremely large, it can press on spinal nerves on both sides of the body.
若椎間盤突出面積非常大,兩側脊神經都會受到擠壓。
This can result in severe pain down both lower extremities.
下肢會感到嚴重刺痛。
There can be marked weakness of the lower extremities and even incontinence of bowel and bladder.
導致下肢無力,甚至會造成大小便失禁。
This is medically referred to as cauda equina syndrome.
這就是醫學上說的馬尾綜合征。
