Brudd i ryggsøylen til eldre: Symptomer

Innhold i artikkelen

Et brudd i en skjør ryggvirvel skjer nesten alltid på fremsiden av virvelen, den siden som vender inn mot brystet eller magen. Det betyr at fremre del av virvelen synker sammen, mens bakre del beholder sin normale høyde. Hvis dette skjer i flere ryggvirvler, vil ryggen din få økt krumning. Du får økt kul på ryggen (kyfose). Høyden din blir også redusert, du faller litt sammen. Dette kan føre til at brystkassen siger ned mot hoftekammen og både brysthulen og magen presses litt sammen. Det kan gjøre det tyngre å puste, og magen kan bli stående litt ut.

Redusert høyde gjør også at musklene i ryggen blir "for lange". For å holde ryggen oppe må musklene derfor trekke seg kraftigere sammen enn de måtte før du fikk kompresjonsbrudd. Det at musklene på denne måten må spenne seg mere, kan i seg selv gi ryggsmerter som følge av muskeltretthet. Denne smerten kan fortsette lenge etter at bruddet i ryggen er tilhelet.

Det er sjelden at kompresjonsbrudd kan skade ryggmargen, så faren for nerveskader og lammelser er meget liten.
