Whether the lungs are good or not is related to whether the muscles, bones, muscles, and joints can function normally. Therefore, the health of the lungs is extremely important. Let's take a look at a little story.
Mr. Xie, who lives in Hangzhou, is a contractor who has been smoking for decades and has been in good health before. Since August last year, I have been feeling low back pain, unable to walk, and a little hoarse in my voice. At first, I thought it was a herniated lumbar disc, but as time went on, the symptoms became more and more severe, and it progressed to the point of loss of sensation in both legs, and even urinary incontinence!
After going to the hospital for examination, the doctor found that Mr. Xie had multiple tumors in both lungs, and the lung cancer had metastasized to the ribs and spine, compressing the spinal nerves in the spine
The doctor said: The reason why Mr. Xie has paralysis of the lower limbs and incontinence is mainly because the tumor that metastasized to the spine compressed the spinal nerves!
