Every disease has its own pathology. Same is with Avascular Necrosis. There are certain things which lead to the problems with the blood arteries, surface of the head of femur and with severity of problem. So here are 10 things which you should not do with Avascular Necrosis of Hip Joint.
Because Avascular Necrosis is a progressive condition. To stop the progress of the condition is a way to ensure – saving of the hip joint. Here are these all points what you should not do with Avascular Necrosis of Hip Joint.
Alcohol is one of the most common causative factor for the AVN so it makes sense to avoid this. This leads to excess of floating fatty substances in the blood. These fatty substances attach with astrocytes and block the passage of the arteries. Therefore regular consumption of the alcohol, leads to the further blockage of the arteries. This is the reason, once diagnosed with Avascular necrosis. Patient should abstain from alcohol. It is easy to live without alcohol but not without healthy hips.
Ayurveda, believes in theory of Guna. The Guna, of Alcohol are Vyvayi and Vikashi. These are two guns which are present in the narcotic things mostly. The impact of these Gunas is- “weakness in the joints” and “decrease in vitality”. In this same aspect, Alcohol should be avoided completely.
Pathology of the Avascular Necrosis
Smoking- tobacco is also leads to the free fate substances in the blood. Once you are diagnosed with Avascular Necrosis. It is important to avoid the smoking habit. So that there wont be any deterioration of the bone. Because with regular smoking habits, the strain on the arteries will be regular and this will complicate the condition further.
For movement, both the surfaces of any joint should be smooth and free from friction. But in case of AVN, it is not only head of the femur but also the acetabulum- which affects. In this condition by excessive walking wear and tear of the hip joint keeps on increasing and this complicates the condition.
Because while walking, the pressure is build up on the “weight-bearing” area of the hip joint. And this leads to the further decay of the joint. You should walk to keep joint alive. But excessive walking will further decay the joint.
There are few people who recommend the physiotherapy treatments. And many other who suffer from AVN also have spinal disc problems. For that many patients go for physiotherapy.
Research has proven that physiotherapy has no role in AVN of Hip Joint. With physiotherapy, problem of AVN complicates only.
This is not the impact of the physiotherapy. But it is all about excessive movement in the hip joint. Which is never good. And you should not do physiotherapy in case you are suffering with Avascular Necrosis.
Strain and movement can damage the hip further. So you should not strain on your hip joints. There are many asanas for which you need to strain your hip joint. So you need to discuss with your Yoga Trainer (Please make sure your Yoga teacher understands severity of your disease). Without making sure, don’t go for any kind of Yoga Asanas.
Certainly, gymming needs a lot of efforts. Therefore when you are diagnosed with Avascular necrosis of hip joint, you should not continue the gym. While gymming your body exerts much and carrying extra weight can damage your hips severely.
In many cultures, like in Indian culture- there are many things which you are supposed to do in sitting position. In such cases, you should be aware enough that sitting in cross legged manner can harm the blood supply to the Head of femur can complicate. And your problem can complicate with time.
So make sure in any condition you wont sit cross legged, once diagnosed with Avascular Necrosis of hip joint.
You strain your hip joint maximum, when you squat. Squats not only impact on your hip joint but also leads to the stiffness of the muscles in the groin region. This duo, complicates the pain.
This is the reason we always tell patients to not to use Indian Toilets, once they are suffering with Avascular necrosis of hip joint.
These are the most common culprits among the causative factors, after alcohol. There are many people who consume these energy products for muscle building. But many of these products contain corticosteroids too. Therefore using these products complicates the condition of the patient, who is already suffering with AVN.
Biking is a stressful activity for the people suffering from Avascular necrosis. We have faced the same complication with a patient, whose treatment was going on with us. The carelessness of the patient costed him with complete damage to the hip joint.
While biking, Yoga and Gymming any accident can occur, This is the reason, why we always caution our patients about all these 10 activities.
