椎間板ヘルニアの影響
Welcome to Kevin's English Room Podcast.
Hello.
Hello.
How are you?
Uh, yeah, doing good.
Doing good?
Doing good.
Doing pretty good.
No, no problem, no, everything goes, like, smoothly?
Nothing, um, unbelievably unexpected.
Okay.
Okay.
I mean, yeah, I always, I would love to have this Lars, you know, this, uh, fixed, of course,
but, um, all the symptoms are just within the expected things, and yeah, I'm just trying
to find a better way to live with it.
Yeah, okay, okay.
Now you're kind of controlling it, kind of?
I feel like I'm more in control than last week.
Yeah, okay, okay, good.
I feel like I am.
I'm better, I have a better understanding of, like, when during the day it's going to
come.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Like, especially during the morning, you know, it's heavier, so, like, I just get up earlier.
I see.
Right, to deal with it.
To control it.
Yeah.
Okay, okay.
I see.
Okay.
Well, good to hear that, like, you're doing good.
Yeah, I mean, it's not, it's not giving me too much of a headache, I would say.
Yeah, okay, okay, okay.
Yeah.
Yeah, yeah.
Well, besides that, you're doing as usual, or, like, is there anything else that you
have to, like, worry about, or, like?
Definitely going outside.
I see.
Became much more of a, you know, more of a planning, like, how long am I going to go
outside?
I see, I see.
Like, is there any, do I have access to bathrooms or not?
That definitely matters, right?
So, yeah, that's affected.
Well, that's it, though.
That's it.
Oh, yeah, and plus, like, you know, can't focus too long, you know?
Still.
When you want to go to the bathroom, like, frequently, it's kind of hard to focus a little
less there still.
But, yeah, it's getting better, I feel like.
Yeah.
Yeah.
The focus thing isn't, like, very pleasant.
Oh, yeah, definitely not that pleasant, you know?
Like, yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
It's everywhere, right?
You have to...
Right.
I come to notice that when I'm talking to people, like, not during...
Especially?
Yeah, when I'm talking to people, it kind of, like, is better.
Like, I don't feel it as much, you know?
Okay, okay.
I feel like my mind is more focused on the people in front of me, like, you know, rather
than focusing on my, like, wanting to, you know, poop out.
So, yeah, I feel like that's there.
Okay, okay.
Yeah.
I see, I see.
Yeah.
But you eat everything you want?
Yeah, I'm not restricting myself from anything.
That's...
It's a bit surprising for me, because you...
It's like...
Right?
Yeah.
It's my digestive system that I, like, you know?
And you cut certain...
Like, this big amount of...
Yeah, the chok chok.
Right?
Right?
So, it feels like there's a lot of stuff that I shouldn't eat, but, you know, the doctor
said I don't have any restrictions, and I'm not restricting myself from anything, and
eating everything I want.
I'm eating sukiyaki tonight.
Oh, that's good.
Yeah, right?
That's good.
From the meat I got from the furusato no ze.
Ah, yeah.
Yeah.
That's good.
Great, yeah.
Great, great, great.
Great.
Right?
I'm enjoying a lot.
That's great.
So, that's good.
That's great.
Yeah.
What about the training?
Training?
Do you...
Do you do muscular training?
Yeah.
Yeah.
I'm doing a lot, but I'm just not doing the...
Yeah, the stomach area.
Okay.
Okay.
So, the arms.
Yeah.
Arms.
Shoulders.
Back.
Is back okay?
Like...
Back is actually okay.
Okay.
Okay.
Back is actually okay.
回復のプロセス
Isn't it, like, too close?
Or, like, you know, the function-wise, it's, like, kind of...
No?
Well, yeah, I mean, there's a lot of motion where you have to use both of your abdomen
and your back muscle, but I'm doing only the ones that I only use the back muscle, so don't
worry about it.
Okay.
And my legs.
Legs?
You know?
Yeah, legs.
Okay.
Legs are great.
Legs are great.
Okay.
And I'm doing a lot of stretching.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Which is great.
That's good.
That's good.
Doing a lot of easy running.
Oh, easy running?
Do you run?
Yeah.
Okay.
Like, a marathon, which is, you know, like, 15 minutes of, like, quick, easy run to, you
know, get my heart rate up.
Oh, that's good.
That's good.
Yeah.
Doing that.
Oh, you can run?
I can run, actually, you know?
The day I got out of the hospital, or day or two or three, I tested myself outside, like,
see if I can run or not.
Okay.
I tested myself, like, how much can I move?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I couldn't run.
Oh, you couldn't run?
Yeah, the kizu, it was too painful.
Oh.
Like, whenever you bounce your body, the impact that, you know, your body gets when you step
in, you know, when you're running, that kind of, like, it hurt.
So, I couldn't run.
Okay.
But now, I can run.
You can run now?
I can run.
I can run.
It's great.
No hurt?
It doesn't, well, I mean, it stings a little bit.
Okay.
But it's not from the kizu.
It's more from, like, the areas around my kizu, it's, like, a little bit, like,
piripiri shiteru.
Okay.
Still?
It's from that.
It's from that, yeah.
Okay.
That's amazing, kind of.
Oh, yeah.
I know, right?
Yeah.
Right.
Not as bad.
Oh, yeah.
Not as bad.
That's good.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Because it's only, like, weeks ago, right?
It's two weeks?
Yeah, three weeks.
Three, two weeks?
I mean, now you can run, you can eat sukiyaki, you can train yourself in a gym.
That's right.
It's pretty much, that's amazing.
椎間板ヘルニアの診断
You know, so, unfortunately, bad news.
Okay, what's that?
Before my surgery, I had this symptom of, like, this sharp piripiri.
Okay.
Before the surgery?
Before the surgery.
I had this sharp piripiri on my left leg.
Okay.
The root of my left leg.
Is it, like?
Near my kotsuban.
Okay.
Bones or muscle?
It's the shinkei.
Shinkei.
Okay, yeah.
Okay, okay.
Like, tsukene.
Okay.
Like, random moment during the day.
Okay.
I just get, like, a random, strong, like, piripiri of, like, one to three seconds.
Then it goes away.
Okay.
Yeah.
Before the surgery.
So it has nothing to do with the shinkei naibutsu.
Yeah, shinkei naibutsu.
Okay, okay.
Nothing to do with that.
You've been dealing with that, like, for a very long time?
Years?
No, no, no, no.
It was very recently.
Just a week, like a week before the surgery, it started happening.
I was like, what is this?
So, and after the surgery, during my hospitalization, I had that, too.
Okay.
Just random, like, BDBD.
Oh, that's bad.
And then, yeah, it got longer and longer, the amount, the duration of the BDBD when it happened.
Yeah.
So I got myself checked up to the doctors several days ago.
Several days after the surgery.
Yeah, after surgery, like, right?
And then they were like, let's take an MRI scan for you and see what's happening.
And I did this MRI scan, and I was diagnosed with hernia.
What?
Shit.
Now I have to deal with hernia.
What?
That's right.
椎間板ヘルニアの症状
Specifically, tsukamba hernia.
Yeah, that's the popular one.
Yeah.
So I looked at the CT scan.
Yeah.
Yeah, it was popping out a little bit, you know.
Yeah, okay.
You know what it is?
You know what hernia is?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Because my dad had it.
Oh, your dad had it.
What was it?
Did he have the tsukamba hernia?
Tsukamba, yeah, exactly.
How bad is he?
Like, how bad is it?
So he'd been treating it, like, for years.
Years and years.
And one time he couldn't, like, well, he could walk, though.
But sometimes he can't do, like, maybe he couldn't run.
Okay.
That was pretty much bad, terrible.
Oh, okay.
He's not going to do the surgery or anything like that?
He's been treating, he doesn't like surgery.
Okay.
He's treating all those massage things and, like, a tube thing and all those many things.
And now finally he found the specific massage place that fits him.
That's great.
And now he kind of, he's fine now.
Okay, okay.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
Well, okay.
I hope he's going to do great.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
For me, you know, I don't feel any pain at all.
Okay.
No matter what kind of movement I do.
I don't feel anything.
Like, there's no specific motion, position, movement that hurts me.
So there's no, the hernia isn't restricting me.
Yeah, okay.
It's just a random moment that comes.
Yeah.
And the doctor was like, so this is going to cure naturally.
Okay.
Yeah, this is only so slightly that your nervous system, your body is going to adjust to that hernia.
So just don't do anything weird.
Okay.
And just wait for a year or two and it'll be gone.
Oh, that's good.
So, yeah.
Great to hear that.
Thank God, right?
Okay, okay.
治療法と予防
So you don't need to do anything?
I don't need to do anything.
Yeah, no, no, no.
Treatment?
No.
Oh, that's good.
Good, good, good.
Yeah.
All right.
So what I'm doing right now is I'm making sure that I'm not like this.
I'm not, you know, my postures are decent.
Yeah.
Yeah.
So that's what I'm doing.
Yeah.
I was wondering why this happened in the first place.
One thing that I'm suspecting.
Okay.
You know, ever since I got that, once I got that gikkuri goshi, remember?
Oh, yeah, yeah.
Yeah, ever since then, I was like, fuck, let me, I have to, you know, do some weightlifting
to fucking fight this off, right?
And I've been hitting the gym doing this training in my own, like, style.
Yeah.
Where I lift heavy things.
Yeah.
With my back curled up.
With my back curled.
Oh.
And then I lift it by uncurling my back.
Okay.
And I guess that was bad.
Mm-hmm.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Can be.
Right.
So I'm not doing that anymore.
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I guess that's better.
Yeah.
Yeah.
Remember the kohai, the bodybuilder?
Oh, yeah.
The kohai?
Yeah, yeah, yeah.
I, not recently, but I was going to his place.
Yeah.
Like a kind of personal train.
Sure.
Yeah.
And the one thing always he was saying was, keep your back like this.
Mm-hmm.
And then.
Never curl it.
Never curl it.
So I guess that can kind of cause, kind of maybe.
Yeah, that's probably it.
Maybe, yeah.
That's probably it.
Yeah.
Yeah.
But good to hear that that's going to go away.
Right.
It's going to go away.
Right.
Like naturally.
Right.
And ever since I'm taking care of my posture, that little buzz, it doesn't come anymore.
Oh.
So.
椎間板ヘルニアの話
That's good.
Yeah.
It's not really.
But the posture was the reason.
The posture is very important.
Yeah.
So.
Okay.
That's it.
Okay.
You know, I'm just.
It's just so sad.
Yeah.
You have so many fucking shit in your body.
Right.
Just.
Yeah.
So.
But you're getting better.
I'm getting better.
You're becoming healthier.
I'm getting healthier.
You're taking everything out.
Yes.
Get rid of all those bad things out.
That's right.
I'm fighting.
You're fighting.
I'm fighting a lot.
Yeah.
Yeah.
That's right.
Yeah.
Just an update on that.
Okay.
All right.
Thanks for sitting guys.
Thank you.
Bye.
Bye.
