Problems with the spine
An injury that the left side of the body may be damaged. The inconvenience of such a resource is obvious. In other cases, first doing the survey are: the status of the analysis in two directions, heart, and spine. Exactly pathologies, Nov-left with a user's other pain the skeletal system the most common fuzzy localization.
Osteochondritis
Tissues less elastic intervertebral discs of the spine and circulation is violated, a fibrous ring of them slowly crashes, damaged nerve roots. This way a variety of factors:
- a sedentary lifestyle;
- heavy physical work;
- age-related changes in the body;
- endocrine diseases.
As a result, the right or left side, back, neck, Waist, begin to ache. Changes the sensitivity of other body areas. Localization of unpleasant sensations associated with a location that is destructive and dystrophic process. So, widespread pain in osteochondrosis of the cervical, left shoulder, arm, numb fingers and outer ribs of a handful. A l occur lumbago, pulling, pain, paresthesia, in relevant part, back, hip, leg.
Sciatica
The contraction due to the distance between the vertebrae handcuffed and inflamed nerve fibers of the spinal cord branching. This kind of complication is called degenerative disc disease sciatica. Fitness how pathology occurs in response to a sudden bad movement, hypothermia, the back, the back muscles are injured.
Neck-shoulder pain shape passes across the top quarter-size: blades, neck, hand. Lumbosacral radiculopathy, sciatica – the sciatic nerve is affecting. Left thigh pain, hip, leg spreading up and down the heel. In the first stage, complaints possible "tracking" the feeling of the leg muscles.
Is a disease that you cannot work. Because you cannot restore fragmented disks. Only reliably preventing disease delaying after removing pain syndrome and acute inflammation remains. Includes mandatory healing, body, control, posture, healthy living. Periodic help courses, physiotherapy, massage, body pane, aiming to improve circulation in the affected vertebrae.
Intercostal neuralgia
Aching, burning or sharp pain, left side – optional heart problems. This may be intercostal neuralgia. But the symptoms are quite similar:
- then suddenly a small movement of a wave of depression the pain attack the body;
- all left side breast pale or red;
- emotion radiating under the shoulder blade and the waist;
- rises, sweating;
- the observed burning sensation, loss of sensation, individual body regions;
- a deep breath, sneezing, coughing and strengthen symptom acuity.
All this damage from occurring due to the nerve fibers intercostal space. Why irritation associated with hypothermia, stagnation of blood, injury, poisoning, infectious diseases or complications of degenerative disc disease. Usually a number of factors, including fatigue and immune.
The basic symptoms help distinguish neuralgia, cardiac pain.
- Not feeling the intercostal receptor nitroglycerin intake irritation subside, but no luck under the influence of sedative (validol, Corvalol).
- Angina attack is usually short and the pain in the left side and below the shoulder – pressure, increased effort. A neuralgia, can damage the entire upper body part, not a day to answer any move.
- A painful palpation of the chest or the back between the points in front are the ribs, the spine.
Basic treatment, neuralgia – the cause of the malfunction is triggered by irritated nerves. Uncover it just a doctor, a neurologist, after a series of surveys. Because it distinguish's disease, renal colic, paralysis, sciatica.
Cardiac pathology
Complaints of chest pain in the left upper quadrant, which gives a shoulders, arms, neck, jaw, not always associated with coronary heart disease and bouts of angina pectoris. Cardiologia similar symptoms are observed due to the inflammation of the heart muscle (myocarditis) or the shell lesions of the heart (pericarditis). This is a pathology that arise as complications of colds, flu, pneumonia, and other infectious diseases.
You will expose yourself to the disease in the initial phase, develop long asymptomatic almost. A miocardite follow:
- fatigue;
- heart palpitations;
- then a small pain, short of breath and weak load;
- then joins dizziness;
- edema in the lower legs.
Pericarditis rarely occurs as an independent disease. Warn about this:
- pain the body is tilted forward when lying on left side;
- a different a feeling of power, way back in the chest, arms, waist;
- rapid, weak, arrhythmic pulse;
- phlegm without coughing;
- boiled skin;
- some bruises on the body (especially hands and feet).
Early diagnosis and timely treatment, reduces the risk of heart diseases, heart attack. Recurring pain in the left upper quadrant and the area must be at the heart of why a doctor's office. Diagnosis spend for ECG and echo. With their help, diagnosis, heart rhythm disorders, the presence of the cavities of the heart dimension of the fluid bag. Radiography will show possible tumors, diseases, ribs, lungs.
Stroke
First, stroke, pain, trunk, and extremities that occur on it is rare. On the contrary, a side-body to lose sensitivity. Visual buğra developing phase but when the area of the brain post-stroke pain throughout the body only to the right or left – thalamic syndrome. Additional symptoms:
- the pain amplified bright light, movement, emotions;
- a broken perception speed;
- tactile stimuli only, and the air;
- goose bumps often accompany reduction and skin sensitivity.
Thalamus – Diamond central pain sensitivity. Causes, symptoms, the lack of oxygen in body tissues due to abnormalities of blood flow are described her. The pain occurs in the legs and the left side over the stove, in the face of parts of the brain. But then a stroke patient may even affected natalichka a side body structure. This medium can hide neuropathic pain, pain and spasm, Nov.
A pain to deal with the effects of stroke-simultaneous determination of intake, antidepressants, and anticonvulsants. Relieve pain Nov, Nov relaxers, massage, special exercises, physiotherapy.
Why what happened one-sided pain in the left upper quadrant, hip, arm and other the self-test is not possible, to uncover him the exact reason. Refrain recommended to visit the clinic 3 hours ago painkillers, tranquilizers. Acute deterioration and in this case emergency medical help is necessary.
