Children and adolescents are not miniature adults, they have their own characteristics in the process of growth and development. Closely related to the posture problems of children and adolescents is the human body's movement system. The motion system of human body consists of bones, joints and skeletal muscles. The bones of the whole body form the basic outline of the human body through bone connection. Skeletal muscle is attached to the bone and moves under the control of the nervous system and the cooperation of other systems.
The bones of children and adolescents are soft, rich in organic matter, low in inorganic matter, elastic and plastic. This objective factor makes teenagers more prone to bone deformation due to poor posture and asymmetric myofascial tension. In fact, many adult posture problems also developed from the hidden dangers of children and adolescents.
2. Characteristics of teenagers' life and rest.
Besides studying at school, children and teenagers also attend various cram schools every day. Sedentary time is getting longer and longer, which directly leads to a decrease in physical activity, which not only increases cardiovascular health risks and obesity incidence, but also has a gradual impact on children's posture.
Because of the high water content in children's muscles and the low content of protein and inorganic salts, children and adolescents have weak strength, poor endurance and are prone to fatigue. Therefore, the sedentary state of children every day is likely to lead to poor posture, which will cause bad pressure on the body bones and eventually lead to posture problems.
3. Parents' lack of cognition
The harm of children's posture problems is 1, which affects their health. Posture problems are usually a chain reaction of various physical problems. Bad body shape will directly affect the normal arrangement of body bones and the exertion of body functions, resulting in unbalanced body stress and bone degradation, but this situation is rare in children's growth stage.
2, affecting the appearance.
No one's first impression will have a second chance. Serious posture problems will directly affect the beauty of the body and bring a strange, unnatural and spiritless feeling to others.
3. Affect mental health
With the growth of children, self-esteem is constantly enhanced, and it is inevitable that there will be psychological pressure in the face of other people's suggestions. Over time, children may become withdrawn and do not like to participate in group activities, which will have a negative impact on their physical and mental health.
Suggestions on preventing posture problems of children and adolescents 1. Take an active part in sports.
In the communication with parents, we found that many parents reported that their children did not like to participate in sports, and thought that their children had no strength, and they were usually hunchbacked and listless. These problems are actually closely related to their children's lack of exercise.
In choosing sports, it is suggested that children should do more balanced sports, such as children's physical fitness, swimming, football, basketball and other interactive symmetrical sports; If you participate in unilateral events, such as golf, badminton, fencing, etc. You need to pay attention to the training of the non-dominant side and try to make both sides develop in a balanced way. After we started practicing golf at the age of 7-8, we encountered several cases of scoliosis.
2. Pay attention to the child's daily sitting and standing posture.
China has attached great importance to posture since ancient times, emphasizing that one should stand and sit. As the saying goes, "Stand as loose as a pine and sit as a bell". In our daily study and life, we should avoid holding our heads with one hand, twisting our upper body to read books or doing homework with our heads tilted, which will have a bad influence on our posture over time.
A gesture detection gadget to remind you not to hunch over, called Youzi Instrument, is more effective than the one you bought for your baby before. It is very repulsive when used well. Obviously, you don't think she likes it, but you have no choice but to force him to use it, because she always bows her back when she does her homework, for fear that when she grows up, she will complain that I made her form the habit of hunchback when she was a child. When helping her homework, she is often reminded not to hunch over. With this gesture reminder, she will bend over.
You should choose your hobbies.
Many parents like to cultivate their children's artistic cells and let them learn musical instruments and dance. At this time, we should also pay attention. When rotating musical instruments, avoid violin, erhu and other instruments with wrong posture during practice.
Other little girls danced from elementary school, and leg press bent down for a long time. As a result, problems such as knee overstretching and splayed feet appeared later.
4, minor injuries and ailments can not be ignored
Ankle sprain may lead to short legs and long legs, frequent hip injections may lead to gluteal muscle contracture, and wrestling may lead to pelvic dislocation and scoliosis. If we don't pay attention to these small problems, children will not be able to fully recover their normal physical functions in the early stage, and it is likely to cause collateral effects over time, leading to overall posture problems.
5, calcium supplementation should be sufficient.
The data showed that the top three foods with calcium content were shrimp skin 99 1mg/ 100g, black sesame 780mg/ 100g and dried bean curd 308mg/ 100g. Among green vegetables, broccoli has the highest calcium content. ? 1-3-year-old children can get 604 mg of calcium by taking 50 mg of rice, 480 mg of milk and others from eggs, meat and vegetables every day. It's not bad to bask in the sun outdoors!
