To prevent lumbar and cervical spine disorders, it is important to pay attention to rest in order to avoid poor posture and correct bad habits. Avoid prolonged fatigue, colds, staring at computer screens, bending over, carrying heavy loads, or driving for extended periods, as these can worsen pain, cause muscle adhesions, and lead to inflammatory exudation. Additionally, targeted care for the cervical and lumbar spine is recommended. For middle-aged and elderly individuals, appropriate calcium supplementation after aging helps reduce the risk of osteoporosis. With increased calcium ions, the stability of the cervical spine, as well as the strength of muscles and bones, can be improved to a certain extent.
