Recently, a paragraph was forwarded and went viral online, causing great panic for a time: “Lancet, a leading medical journal, recently published an article and wrote that lumbago has become a major global challenge.” The data showed that the patients of lumbar spondylosis in China had exceeded 200 million, and the disease becomes prevalent among young people.
But why the adult labor force in China 40 years ago could carry a hundred pounds on their shoulders, but now lumbar spondylosis prevails among young people in China?
Through 6 years of unremitting efforts, I have made progress in the research on the traditional shoulder-carrying culture and spine of china, the world medical science confused the Oriental spine with the standard spine in Western medicine textbooks, yet there are stark differences between them. Research in this academic field is still blank in the world. Occasionally, the scholar (it's me) becomes the first discoverer and researcher in this field. It is the historical mission of China to sort out its national heritage, and it is the duty and obligation of every Chinese to fulfill the historical mission.
The traditional Chinese spine was born under the traditional shoulder-carrying culture of the Chinese nation, and will disappear with its demise. Today, shoulder-carrying skills can be called an intangible cultural heritage. The skill may disappear within a decade and is now on the verge of extinction. Only those elderly people have maintained the shoulder-carrying tradition, meaning that fewer and fewer people have the traditional Chinese spine. Unfortunately, the modern medical community has little or no knowledge of the structure, physiology and kinematics of the spine, leading to huge losses.
I think the study of Chinese traditional shoulder-carrying culture and spine can solve the mystery of the epidemic of lumbar disease.I have the answer, but I do not have strong scientific research ability to write it out. Time is urgent, so I put forward my opinion through the website of the researchgate hoping that more people in the world will know about this and participate in the research.
