back pain belt- safe choices for back pain management solutions.

In my opinion back pain belt walking is a great way to stay fit and active. Even if you are sedentary, you may take 1,000 to 3,000 steps a day. However if you are active, look out. You may take more than 10, 000 steps a day. So what happens when the sacroiliac joint is not moving freely and the hip joint moves excessively?

Can you imagine the damages to the buttock soft tissues, the sacroiliac and hip joints with each step taken?  The pelvis is formed by the sacrum, tailbone and two ileum which are basically wing like hip bones. When you walk and run, as a unit, the sacrum and tailbone rock slightly back and forth.

Each wing like hip bone rotates in opposite direction. So when your walk, one hip bone which is ileum along with the sacroiliac joint rotates forward while the opposite one on the other side rotates back. If one of the hip bones is struck in a forward, rotated position, then the same sacroiliac join cannot rotate back freely and fully during the second half of the walking stride.

The buttock muscles on the same restricted side are forced to compensate by pulling harder at the hip joint to swing your leg back. Normally, the sacroiliac and hip joints rotate simultaneously. However with a dysfunctional sacroiliac joint, the hip joint is forced to rotate more than it needs to.

Now I am sure do you see the potential for damage, especially if you take 10,000 steps a day? If the hip joint is forced to excessively, eventually you will wear it out. The affected hip may being to click and pop as it needs to create a new axis of rotation.

This can lead to premature hip degeneration and arthritis. The hip feels stiff in the morning. It will also feel stiff and clunky as you get up and move around after sitting down for a while. What about the buttock muscles?

Now let’s say you have a hand crank radio? It’s old and hasn’t been cared for; some of the internal gears are rusty. When you crank it, you notice that it doesn’t turn as smoothly as before. The internal gears are not moving freely and efficiently.

It requires more effort to crank the handle. Within minutes, your arm muscles get tired from cranking the rusty gears inside the radio. Now the same principle applies to your buttock muscles. Eventually the compensated buttock muscles will eventually wear out.

They will become tight and taut and the tight and taut buttock muscle will then resist forward rotation of the sacroiliac and hip joints which create a new problem. Normally, when you step forward as in walking and running, the buttock muscles should let go and relax.

But these tight and taut muscles prevent normal facilitator relaxation. The groin and hip flexor muscles must then work harder to overcome the increased tension from the buttock muscles. So basically you have a tug of war between the anterior groin or hip flexor muscles and posterior buttock muscles.

Before you know it, back pain belt this muscle tug of war causes hip and groin pain and clicking. You will often notice clicking in the groin and hip when you bring your thigh up, walk up the stairs and hill or simply getting up from sitting down.
