A few days ago, a friend complained that he wanted to buy a good pillow for the cervical spine for the elderly. Because there are various kinds of health pillows and medicine pillows on the market and on the Internet, most of them are improving sleep, relieving pain, and calming down. The name of various curative effects such as lowering blood pressure, and the price ranges from tens of yuan to thousands of yuan. I really don't know which one to buy. Are these pillows really effective for some diseases? The reporter made a survey.
A wide variety of business pillows
A few days ago, the reporter visited several home textile stores in the urban area. I saw that most of these stores sell pillows with health care functions. Once ordinary silk cotton and seven-hole cotton pillow cores are filled with famous Chinese herbal medicines or plants, the price will be Double it immediately. Some memory pillows and latex pillows cost as little as one or two hundred yuan and as many as five or six hundred yuan. The reporter saw in a brand chain pharmacy that a "cervical rehabilitation pillow" is priced at 188 yuan, and in some health care products stores and middle-aged and old-fashioned goods stores, some pillows have been given more because of the addition of traditional Chinese medicine or magnets. More effective, and expensive, even thousands of dollars, see a health care pillow with a price of more than 800 yuan, the reporter asked why it is so expensive, a salesperson explained that this kind of health pillow according to the idea of ​​Chinese medicine, according to the distribution of acupuncture points of human body meridians Combined with natural latex, tourmaline functional fiber, and a variety of eco-friendly materials, it can eliminate head and neck fatigue by releasing negative magnetic energy, far infrared and negative ions, thus achieving extraordinary health and health effects.
In addition, the reporter also saw a variety of "can cure" health pillows on many websites, not only bamboo carbon pillows, Chinese medicine pillows, but also anti-rheumatic pillows, stabilizer pillows, and fetal pillows. An online shop specializing in pillows is said to be used in the advertisement of a special health pillow for men: it is used to prevent dizziness, tinnitus, weak waist, fatigue, weakness, and early whiteness. Women's beauty pillows can prevent common diseases such as poor sleep, irregular menstruation, dull complexion, endocrine disorders, and prolonged plaques. Some affordable health pillows are also sold well on the Internet, and some sell nearly a hundred in a month.
The public reacted calmly to promote rational consumption
Mr. Zhang said that because of his long-term use of computer work, the cervical spine often has pain. There are several such health care neck pillows at home, and the price is not cheap, but the effect is not very obvious. Mr. Chen Lao, a hypertensive patient, said that although the children all said that they would buy the so-called "bump pillow" for themselves, he felt that the advertisement exaggerated the effect of the pillow, or insisted on taking medicine and insisting on exercise. Mr. Chen Lao also told reporters that some friends around him have spent nearly 10,000 yuan to buy mattresses, quilts, pillows, and even blankets, mats and underwear of a health care brand, but he thinks that health care products are not effective for any disease, so Before purchasing and using, it is best to ask the doctor for advice. Ms. He said that far infrared, nano, magnetic therapy, linen, etc. are all commercial hype, they may be a little good for the human body, but definitely not as good as advertising, so buy things according to their own The demand is strong, and if you are sick, it is safer to go to the hospital.
Experts remind that health pillows are not for everyone
Shao Heyang, director of the Department of Orthopaedics of the Municipal Hospital of Traditional Chinese Medicine, told the reporter that many patients also often consulted about the purchase and use of health pillows. For the health pillows on the market, there are certain preventive and health effects for patients with mild cervical spondylosis, but because of cervical spondylosis It is divided into different types such as nerve root type, vertebral artery type, spinal cord type, and sympathetic type. For cervical spondylosis like nerve root type and vertebral artery type, the use of a health pillow suitable for its physiological curve can relieve pain to a certain extent, but For other types of cervical spondylosis, the use of a health pillow may not be effective, and some patients need to be treated by traction or surgery. Dr. Shao reminded everyone that if there is a disease of the cervical vertebra, it is best to go to a regular hospital for diagnosis. Under the guidance of a doctor, take treatment measures and do not blindly purchase so-called health pillows. Moreover, the use of a health pillow that is not suitable for your own illness may aggravate the original pain and increase unnecessary trouble.
