Does lumbar muscle strain affect sex life?

In daily life, we put our waist under great pressure for a long time because of work or carrying heavy objects. Over time, lumbar muscle strain occurs. Many people know that lumbar muscle strain will seriously affect the quality of our sex life. So, what is the relationship between this type of disease and the quality of our sex life? In normal life, if such a problem occurs, how should we adjust it to restore our health?

Lumbar muscle strain, also known as "functional low back pain" or "lumbar myofasciitis", mainly refers to chronic injury to soft tissues such as lumbar muscles and fascia. This disease accounts for the largest proportion of chronic low back pain. It is mostly caused by untreated or misdiagnosed acute lumbar sprain, repeated injuries; or by maintaining a certain unbalanced posture for a long time during work, such as long-term bending work; or by habitual bad posture. People with congenital malformation of the lumbar vertebrae have inconsistent movements on both sides of the lumbar sacral region, which is more likely to cause fatigue of the soft tissue in the lumbar caudal region and cause low back pain.

2. Causes and pathology of lumbar muscle strain

The waist is the midpoint of the human body, and the lumbar-sacral joint is the only large joint that bears the body's gravity. It is the hub of waist movement and is involved in bending forward, leaning backward, bending left and right, and turning. Regardless of exercise or activity, the joints here bear greater force than any other joint in the body. The greater the labor intensity or the greater the amount of activity, the more joint movement there is. The movement of joints involves muscles, so the muscles here are prone to fatigue and injury. Lumbar muscle strain means that the lumbar muscles are overworked and become diseased. Even if some people do not engage in much physical activity or have a low labor intensity, their incorrect posture keeps their spine in a semi-bent state and their back muscles are always tense. Over time, this causes strain, which further develops into aseptic inflammation, stimulates nerve endings, causes pain, and thus causes low back pain.

You should know that lumbar muscle strain is a chronic disease. Friends whose symptoms have improved may experience back pain, and in severe cases they may not be able to walk. Naturally, this will have a certain impact on their sex life. Therefore, the editor recommends that in daily life, in addition to taking medication, you should also actively adjust your diet and daily routine in order to recover as soon as possible.
