Chest bone tumors are rare; Symptoms of cervical and lumbar injuries are more common. Fibroids in the chest pose a threat to human health. Due to the peculiarity of the thoracic structure, with the symptoms of thoracic osteonecrosis, the diagnosis is problematic, as a result, the patient discovers the disease at a late stage.
The ribcage is not mobile, like other parts of the spine. The sternum is not under constant stress. Factors that explain when the disease is in the early stages without obvious symptoms. The thorax has a complex structure, the immobility of the thoracic region is attached to the structure of the spine. The union of the spine and ribs provides a stable, reliable structure that resists trauma.
Osteoma of the thorax develops with slight displacement of the vertebrae, which occurs under the influence of stress. Bone tumors will not keep you waiting if a person has a crooked posture in terms of posture and spine. The development of osteonecrosis is not as noticeable as in other parts of the spine, when it is difficult, new symptoms appear, similar to those of the disease in the neck and lower back.
Cause of pain
Painful sensations do not arise without a reason. Pain syndrome is a vivid symptom of the disease. As osteonecrosis develops, the chest becomes painful. Manifestations of pain appear when the patient has deformed discs. This means that they thin, convex, and form herniated discs. Pain is unavoidable when changing joints. We are talking about the formation of osteoclasts, the destruction of cartilage tissue.
Late doctor visits, refusal to go to the hospital, lack of treatment, improper implementation can threaten a person with an underlying disease. The medical term refers to the compression of nerve roots located in the spinal cord. Spinal cord compression should be attributed. The possibility of spinal cord injury cannot be excluded.
Pain syndrome
No matter how difficult it is to diagnose, it will begin to manifest. At the first stage of the development of osteonecrosis, it is difficult to identify symptoms; In times of trouble, they don't hide their presence. Symptoms of thoracic osteonecrosis are usually divided into two groups. The first is pain, the second is neurological manifestations.
Pain syndrome manifests in two forms: low back pain, hemiplegia. Often the pain is localized in the upper back, hidden between the ribs. It usually occurs when, with body movements, turning, coughing, deep breathing, a person has severe pain localized between the ribs.
Attacks of thoracic osteonecrosis are confused with heart disease. Fractures are numerous autonomic nerve fibers located in the thoracic region. Thanks to them, the manifestations of osteonecrosis are similar to those of heart disease: pain on the left side of the sternum, the development of an inflammatory process in the gallbladder. It is possible that simulations of stomach diseases may appear - symptoms similar to those of an ulcer, gastritis.
Neurological symptoms
Thoracic cystic fibrosis has a group of neurological symptoms:
- Numbness and flatness of the lower extremities;
- Chest numbness;
- Numbness in the abdomen and pelvis;
- Muscle tension reflexes in the back and chest;
- Violation of validity;
- Disruption of genitals, pelvic organs.
Complications of thoracic osteonecrosis are not excluded, one of which is considered shingles. It is important to identify the disease at an early stage of development. The symptoms of the disease are widespread, nonspecific, and there is a high risk of inaccurate identification of the disease.
Signal
The disease has symptoms. Among the signs, the appearance of numbness in parts of the body is noted.
The person begins to feel ticklish (goosebumps appear). With thoracic osteonecrosis, a pronounced, localized drop in temperature in the lower extremities can occur. Osteochondrosis is often accompanied by irritation, a burning sensation, and itching.
Osteoarthritis is characterized by increased fragility of the nails. Unhealthy, flaky skin may appear, especially on the face. Signs associated with vascular dysfunction. Another sign is that the digestive system is malfunctioning, as a result, people with osteonecrosis often have indigestion and flatulence.
Dorsago
Diagnosis of thoracic osteosarcoma begins with identification of the main symptoms of the disease - vertebral syndromes: back pain, back pain.
Dorsago is an acute pain of a sudden nature, manifesting in the sternum region. Typically, the syndrome affects people with sedentary lifestyles, whose occupations involve sitting at work 8 hours a day, sitting in front of a computer. This should be attributed to motorists who rarely leave the place near the wheel of a car.
Dorsago is known as "thoracic loin, " because it hard, suddenly pierces the area between the shoulder blades, as if a knife were being stabbed. The onset of the syndrome is often accompanied by shortness of breath. Dorsago is mistaken for a heart attack. The treatment of the disease needs to be carried out earlier, otherwise it will not be difficult to confuse the disease. Improper treatment will cause complicated consequences such as thoracic bone necrosis.
Back-ache
Back pain syndrome manifests at a slower rate, tormenting the patient for 3 weeks. It is very simple to define the syndrome, it consists of a dull pain sensation in the inflamed area. Symptoms make the patient uncomfortable, causing the patient to go to the hospital for help. With back pain, the following can happen:
- Increased pain when breathing deeply, coughing;
- Muscle tension;
- Decreased motor activity in the neck and lower back;
- The appearance of muscle spasms;
- An increase in pain intensity at night, during physical activity.
There are two types of back pain - upper and lower. With the upper part, the main area of damage is in the upper part of the sternum (in the neck region), for the second variant, pain in the lumbar region and sacrum is characteristic.
It is important not to confuse the presentation of back pain with the onset of pneumonia; the manifestations are the same, improper treatment will aggravate the situation. Osteoma during lactation is manifested by such symptoms, the treatment of which should be carefully formulated, under the supervision of a doctor. Medications are selected on the basis of what is acceptable, not acceptable risking your health, the health of the child.
