Je, unasumbuliwa na maumivu ya muda mrefu ya mgongo? Watafiti wanasema matibabu yanayotegemea ubongo yanaweza kuwa na ufanisi katika kupunguza ukali wake.<\/p>\n

Watu hupata maumivu kwa sababu mbalimbali, lakini kuna matukio ambapo wengine hupata maumivu ya kimwili bila sababu yoyote ya uhakika. Katika hali kama hizi, kudhibiti mtazamo wa mtu kuhusu jukumu la ubongo katika maumivu sugu kunaweza kuwasaidia kukabiliana nayo vyema.<\/p>\n

Utafiti mpya, uliochapishwa katika Mtandao wa JAMA Umefunguliwa<\/a>, ilionyesha kuwa watu wenye maumivu ya muda mrefu ya mgongo ambao walipata matibabu yanayoitwa tiba ya kurejesha uchungu (PRT) walianza kuona maumivu yao yanatokana na akili zao (mawazo) au ubongo (mwili). Washiriki walihisi kupungua kwa ukubwa wa maumivu baada ya kikao cha tiba.<\/p>\n

Maumivu yote yanatoka kwa mizunguko ya neural kwenye ubongo. Kwa hivyo, kuwa na ufahamu bora wa muunganisho huu tata wa akili na mwili kunaweza kuwa muhimu katika kudhibiti na kupunguza kasi yake.<\/p>\n

Katika utafiti wa hivi karibuni, watafiti walichunguza kiungo muhimu kati ya ubongo na maumivu. Mtazamo wao ulikuwa hasa juu ya sifa za uchungu, ambazo zinawakilisha imani za watu kuhusu sababu kuu za maumivu yao. Kwa kutumia PRT, timu ilijaribu kuwafanya watu kuelewa kwamba sababu ya maumivu yao ya muda mrefu mara nyingi iko kwenye ubongo au akili.<\/p>\n

Jumla ya watu wazima 150 wenye maumivu makali ya mgongo ya wastani walishiriki katika utafiti. Waliwekwa kwa nasibu katika vikundi vitatu vilivyopokea PRT, sindano ya placebo isiyotumika au utunzaji wa kawaida.<\/p>\n

Washiriki waliripoti kupunguzwa kwa kiasi kikubwa kwa ukubwa wa maumivu yao ya nyuma baada ya kupokea PRT. Theluthi mbili ya washiriki ambao walipata PRT walikuwa karibu au bila maumivu kabisa baada ya wiki nne tu, ikilinganishwa na chini ya moja ya tano ya wale waliopokea placebo au huduma ya kawaida.<\/p>\n

Mwanzoni mwa utafiti, 10% pekee ya washiriki katika makundi yote matatu walihusisha sababu za maumivu yao kwa akili au ubongo. Idadi hii ilipanda hadi 51% kwa watu ambao walipitia PRT mwishoni mwa kipindi cha matibabu, wakati 8% pekee ya washiriki katika kikundi cha placebo na vikundi vya utunzaji wa kawaida walikuwa na imani sawa baada ya wiki nne.<\/p>\n

Watafiti waligundua kwamba washiriki zaidi walibadilisha mtazamo wao kutambua sababu ya akili \/ ubongo, chini ya ukubwa wa maumivu yao ya nyuma. Matokeo yalitoa mwanga juu ya ufanisi wa PRT katika kuunda upya imani na kupunguza ukali wa maumivu ya muda mrefu ya nyuma.<\/p>\n

"Mamilioni ya watu wanakabiliwa na maumivu ya kudumu na wengi hawajapata njia za kusaidia na maumivu, ikionyesha wazi kwamba kuna kitu kinakosekana katika njia tunayochunguza na kutibu watu," alisoma mwandishi wa kwanza Yoni Ashar, profesa msaidizi wa magonjwa ya ndani. dawa kwenye Chuo Kikuu cha Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus<\/a>, alisema katika taarifa ya habari<\/a>.<\/p>\n

"Tuligundua kuwa watu wachache sana waliamini kuwa akili zao zina uhusiano wowote na maumivu yao," aliongeza. "Hii inaweza kuwa isiyofaa na ya kuumiza linapokuja suala la kupanga kupona, kwani sifa za maumivu huongoza maamuzi makubwa ya matibabu, kama vile kupata upasuaji au matibabu ya kisaikolojia."<\/p>\n

Ashar anasisitiza jukumu la PRT katika kusaidia watu kuelewa ishara zao za maumivu kimsingi ni "kengele za uwongo" ambazo hawahitaji kuogopa.<\/p>\n

"Ujumbe wa kurudi nyumbani [kutoka kwa utafiti huu] kwa watu wenye maumivu ya muda mrefu ni kwamba kwa sababu maumivu huchakatwa kwenye ubongo na mitandao hii sio ngumu, kuna mambo ambayo wanaweza kufanya ili kusaidia kuweka upya baadhi ya mitandao hii na kupunguza uzoefu wa maumivu,\u201d Afton L. Hassett<\/a>, profesa msaidizi na mkurugenzi wa utafiti wa maumivu ya kliniki katika Idara ya Anesthesiology katika Chuo Kikuu cha Michigan, aliiambia Laini ya afya<\/a>.<\/p>\n

Watu wanaougua maumivu sugu mara nyingi hujikuta wamenaswa katika mzunguko usio na mwisho: Maumivu hutumika kama kichocheo cha hofu, na kusababisha kuongezeka kwa hali ya tahadhari<\/a> katika ubongo. Hali hii ya kuongezeka inaweza kuimarisha maumivu hata zaidi, zaidi ya kuchochea hofu yao, na mzunguko unaendelea.<\/p>\n

"Maumivu huchakatwa kwenye ubongo kwa kutumia miundo na mitandao sawa na ile inayotumika kuchakata mawazo na hisia. Ndio maana tunapohisi kuogopa au kuhuzunika, maumivu yetu yanaweza kuwa mabaya zaidi,\u201d alisema Hassett, ambaye hakuwa sehemu ya utafiti huo.<\/p>\n

Walakini, kinyume ni kweli pia: Chanya mawazo na hisia<\/a> kuwa na uwezo wa kupunguza hisia za maumivu ya muda mrefu.<\/p>\n

"Ikiwa una maumivu na kujikuta ukicheka na rafiki au unashiriki sana kufanya kitu unachopenda, unaweza usione au hata kuhisi maumivu yako," aliongeza Hassett.<\/p>\n

Researchers say a brain-based treatment could be effective in reducing its severity.People experience pain for various reasons, but there are instances wherein some experience physical pain without any definite cause. In such cases, managing one's perspective about the brain's role in chronic pain could help them deal with it better.A new study, published in JAMA Network Open, showed that people with chronic back pain who underwent a treatment called pain reprocessing therapy (PRT) started seeing their pain as stemming from their mind (thoughts) or brain (body). The participants felt a reduction in the intensity of the pain after the therapy session.All pain originates from neural circuits in the brain. Therefore, having a better understanding of this intricate mind-body connection can be vital in effectively managing and reducing its intensity.In the latest study, researchers examined the critical link between the brain and pain. Their focus was specifically on pain attributions, which represent people's beliefs about the root causes of their pain. Using PRT, the team tried to make people understand that the cause of their chronic pain is often in the brain or mind.A total of 150 adults with moderately severe chronic back pain participated in the study. They were randomly assigned into three groups that received PRT, an inactive placebo injection or usual care.Participants reported a significant reduction in the intensity of their back pain after receiving PRT. Two-thirds of the participants who underwent PRT were nearly or completely pain-free after just four weeks, compared to fewer than one-fifth of those who received a placebo or standard care.At the beginning of the study, only 10% of participants across all three groups attributed the causes of their pain to the mind or brain. This figure rose to 51% in people who underwent PRT by the end of the treatment period, while only 8% of participants in the placebo and usual care groups held similar beliefs after four weeks.Researchers found that the more participants shifted their perspective to recognize the mind\/brain factor, the lesser the intensity of their back pain became. The findings shed light on the effectiveness of PRT in reshaping beliefs and reducing the severity of chronic back pain."Millions of people are experiencing chronic pain and many haven't found ways to help with the pain, making it clear that something is missing in the way we're diagnosing and treating people," study first author Yoni Ashar, assistant professor of internal medicine at the University of Colorado Anschutz Medical Campus, said in a news release."We found that very few people believed their brains had anything to do with their pain," he added. "This can be unhelpful and hurtful when it comes to planning for recovery, since pain attributions guide major treatment decisions, such as whether to get surgery or psychological treatment."Ashar underlines PRT's role in helping people understand their pain signals are essentially "false alarms" that they don't need to be afraid of."The take-home message [from this study] for people with chronic pain is that because pain is processed in the brain and these networks are not hardwired, there are things they can do to help reset some of these networks and reduce the experience of pain," Afton L. Hassett, associate professor and director of clinical pain research in the Department of Anesthesiology at the University of Michigan, told Healthline.People dealing with chronic pain often find themselves trapped in an endless cycle: Pain serves as a catalyst for fear, triggering a heightened state of alertness in the brain. This heightened state can intensify the pain even more, further fueling their fear, and the cycle continues."Pain is processed in the brain using many of the same structures and networks as those used for processing thoughts and emotions. That's why when we feel frightened or sad, our pain can feel much worse," said Hassett, who was not part of the study.However, the opposite holds true as well: Positive thoughts and emotions have the potential to reduce the feelings of chronic pain."If you have pain and find yourself laughing with a friend or deeply engaged in doing something you love, you might not notice or even feel your pain," added Hassett.Published by Medicaldaily.com\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/sw\/tiba-ya-kusindika-maumivu-kwa-wanasayansi-wa-maumivu-sugu-ya-mgongo-wanasema-matibabu-yanaweza-kufanya-kazi\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:publisher\" content=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/urbancarezanzibar\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-09-29T12:31:31+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:image\" content=\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work.jpg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Urban Care Clinic\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"dakika 4\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"Article\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work\/#article\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work\/\"},\"author\":{\"name\":\"Urban Care Clinic\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/#\/schema\/person\/f286c4d84be896d302aceda3ed7e789c\"},\"headline\":\"Pain Reprocessing Therapy For Chronic Back Pain?

That's why when we feel frightened or sad, our pain can feel much worse,\" said Hassett, who was not part of the study.However, the opposite holds true as well: Positive thoughts and emotions have the potential to reduce the feelings of chronic pain.\"If you have pain and find yourself laughing with a friend or deeply engaged in doing something you love, you might not notice or even feel your pain,\" added Hassett.Published by Medicaldaily.com","og_url":"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/sw\/tiba-ya-kusindika-maumivu-kwa-wanasayansi-wa-maumivu-sugu-ya-mgongo-wanasema-matibabu-yanaweza-kufanya-kazi\/","og_site_name":"Urban Care Clinic","article_publisher":"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/urbancarezanzibar","article_published_time":"2023-09-29T12:31:31+00:00","og_image":[{"url":"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work.jpg","type":"","width":"","height":""}],"author":"Urban Care Clinic","twitter_card":"summary_large_image","twitter_image":"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/wp-content\/uploads\/2023\/10\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work.jpg","twitter_misc":{"Written by":"Urban Care Clinic","Est. reading time":"dakika 4"},"schema":{"@context":"https:\/\/schema.org","@graph":[{"@type":"Article","@id":"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work\/#article","isPartOf":{"@id":"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/pain-reprocessing-therapy-for-chronic-back-pain-scientists-say-the-treatment-may-work\/"},"author":{"name":"Urban Care Clinic","@id":"https:\/\/urbancare.clinic\/#\/schema\/person\/f286c4d84be896d302aceda3ed7e789c"},"headline":"Pain Reprocessing Therapy For Chronic Back Pain?
