    Said not long ago, Mr Li to inquire, where they have the old man walking in the park a monstrous, what step "crab", will cure waist pain. Although he is a middle-aged man, but osteoporosis is obvious, a year ago because of injury, lumbar vertebra and two compression fractures, now not only waist pain, also difficult to even walk. Mr Li asked, he also can be so "crabs walk?"
 
    Step of the so-called "crab", it is sideways like a crab. Before walking, people under a crouching posture, the feet of the heel to 45 degrees, at the same time slowly inhale, knee towards the toe also slowly twist. Then exhale, while slowly walk sideways, step in about 5 seconds.
 
    Today, in the knee joint osteoarthritis is the most prone to illness in the elderly, for such patients, often walk sideways and side up and down the stairs (side note: if the lesion is the healthy side in the front side, on both sides of the lesion is according to the illness severity), has protective effect to the knee, can reduce or avoid as far as possible at the same time already to develop osteoarthritis in the joint directly stimulate and aggravate the damage. Now, lumbar spinal stenosis with lumbar intervertebral disc protrusion disease in old people are many, and often walk step "crab", and there was a similar "squat aerobics" effect. According to medical science research shows that when the next crouching, two of the largest body joints, knee and hip fold to the greatest extent, hardly withstand the weight of each joint. Now, thanks to the work habits of people, more and more "sex" with "sedentary". Sedentary, the waist abdomen blood circulation obstructed, due to compression of the lumbar spine, lordosis, such as cervical rigidity caused by various diseases such as hyperplasia of neck strain of lumbar muscles, sex spondylitis (mast), such as diabetes and obesity arises at the historic moment. If people can squat down a squat down, take a walk step "crab", can effectively squeezed abdominal blood, promote the venous return, reduce abdominal blood stasis. At the same time, can make lumbar joints relatively relaxed, comfortable. In addition to normal step "crab", at the same time also prompted the lumbosacral joint, sacroiliac joint and hip function such as well.
 
    However, due to the step "crab" very laborious, and big stride, who is too old and heart cerebrovascular disease shoulds not be gone a long time, is better to 3 ~ 5 minutes every time. Second, the elderly can be according to the actual situation to determine the exercise every day. Sports wear soft shoes or cloth shoes. Mr Li patients with more severe osteoporosis, in order to prevent fracture caused by the unstable walking wrestling again, please don't "gaps", still polite to walk.
