相信耳石症这个词对很多人来说都是及其陌生的。但这并不是一种罕见的病,相反,据资料显示,几乎每个人在其一生中都会发生至少一次。但由于各人体质不同,有的人能自愈,有的人却会一直发病。
我了解这个病是因为我的妈妈受其困扰。我是妈妈一手带大的,爸爸因为工作原因不常跟我们在一块儿,所以小时候妈妈很忙。每天忙于处理我的生活中各种琐事,加之她是一名老师,长年伏案批改作业和备课,导致落下病根。据妈妈回忆,大约她二十几岁第一次出现耳石症症状,但是当时由于自己长时间改作业备课就以为自己是颈椎病,加之当时很年轻,身体素质好,基本上头晕呕吐之后睡一觉,第二天就能完全恢复。可是后来,每年到了一定的时间,她的"颈椎病"就会发作,而且愈演愈烈!终于,我高三那年妈妈的"颈椎病"再一次发作,吐的十分厉害,我当时被吓得不行,打电话给小姨让她把妈妈送去医院。然后医生确诊:耳石症。那个时候我们才知道原来困扰了我们那么久的并不是颈椎病,而是耳石症。
耳石症,与有世界疑难杂症之称的美尼尔氏综合症不同。耳石症,又称良性阵发性位置性眩晕,指耳石膜上的耳石因致病因素而脱落,在内耳内淋巴的液体里游动,当人体头位变化时,这些半规管亦随之发生位置变化,沉伏的耳石就会随着液体的流动而运动,从而刺激半规管毛细胞,导致机体眩晕。患病人群一般为中年患者(45-50岁) 女性偏多。耳石症有很多诱发因素:遗传,头部受到重击(我有一个朋友今年19岁就是因为在踢足球时不小心被足球很重地砸了然后导致耳石脱落),生活不规律,身体素质差等等。耳石症发作时主要分为两部分:眩晕和眼震。发病时病人无法睁开双眼,一旦睁开就会感觉全世界翻天覆地地旋转(我妈妈的描述),并且同时还有头晕和呕吐,身体漂浮感十分强。所以耳石症病人发病时十分痛苦。比颈椎病简直痛苦一万倍!
然而现在世界上并没有很好的能根治耳石症的方法。目前看来最先进的便是复位治疗。复位治疗法在耳石症发作时的作用简直堪称灵丹妙药。(但据说复位治疗法只对70%的耳石症患者有效)所谓复位治疗,便是将脱落的耳石重新装回去。耳石回到原位了,不刺激神经末梢了,也就好了。高三那年为妈妈治疗的那位医生便是用了复位治疗法,据妈妈回忆,复位治疗之后眼睛立马能睁开了,虽然身子仍然虚弱吃不下饭还是觉得恶心,但真的是一种完全质变的感觉。可是复位治疗虽然当时有奇效,可是并不能让其以后不再发病,并没有根治的效果。
没有这个病的小伙伴,偷着乐吧。真的!这个病真的很痛苦!不过,一定要做好预防!我这里提几点建议:
1.很重要!醒之后不要立刻起床!要让自己的身体缓一缓,再起来!
2.多锻炼!多吃富含vc的食物!多吃富含蛋白质的食物!不要熬夜!
3.也很重要!一定要多喝水!
身体是自己的,一定要好好爱惜啊!
Cupulolithiasis must be a strange word to a lot of people.However,it's a very common disease in our life.It's said that almost every person will get it at least once in his or her whole life.It varies from person to person…some people may get it only once.But some people will be disturbed by it during their whole life.
I know this disease because my mom have got it but unluckily she gonna have it in her whole life.My mother is a teacher and she works very hard.She always stays up late to check students' homework and prepare the next class.And what's more she has to take care of me especially when i was young.(My father doesn't often live with us bacause of his work so my mother had to take care of everything of me when i was a baby.)She didn't get enough rest and she didn't have time to exercise.So when she was in her twenties,she got it and it was her first time.She got a serious headache and she vomitted violently. However,at that time,she didn't know it was cupulolithiasis.She just thought it was cervical spondylosis.So being careless,she ignored it,thinking of if she got enough rest than it would be ok.She was a young adult at that time and her physical fitness was good.As what she was thinking,after a good long sleep,she recovered very soon.BUT!She started suffering from it every year since that time!!!And till i was in twelfth grades(time before entrance exam in China).She got it again as expected.But what was different is she even couldn't afford it at that time.I was scared to death and called my aunt to send my mom to hospital.Finally!We knew it was cupulolithiasis!
Cupulolithiasis is something that is very similar to cervical spondylosis.But cupulolithiasis is much more painful!When a people get cupulolithiasis,not only a bad headache.He(She) will vomit violently.And he(she) can't open his(her) eyes!Once he(she) opens his(her) eyes,he(she) would feel that the whole earth is rotating!There are many reasons that may lead to cupulolithiasis.Like genetic,head is hit hard,irregular habits and so on.
Till now there is no way to cure it thoroughly.There is a chinese way called 复位治疗法 working very effectively!But only when the patient is suffering from it.
Those who don't get this disease…u guys should really feel happy😂.To prevent it now i give some tips:
1.When you wake up don't get up rapidly and accidently.Prepare enough time for your body to totally wake up!(MOST important!)
2.Don't stay up.Exercise more and more.Eat food which contain lots of vc and protein.
3.Drink as much water as you can!(Also important!)
Anyways let's love ourselves!Love our bodies!
