News India Live, Digital Desk: We Indian men have a very common routine. Whenever we go to a hair cut salon, at the end the barber bhaiya asks very lovingly – “Sir, should I give you a little massage?”
And we also rest our head on the chair to relax. After this they rotate our neck forcefully on both sides, and ‘cut-cut’ The sound comes. Truth be told, it feels very relaxing at that time, isn’t it?

But wait! What you think is ‘relaxation’ may actually be the knock of a brain stroke.

Recently neurologists have revealed a very scary reality. Many young and healthy patients are coming to doctors who became paralyzed shortly after returning from the salon. it in the medical world “Beauty Parlor Stroke Syndrome” Is being named.

After all, what is the problem in cracking the neck?
Let us understand this in very easy language. Our neck is the ‘highway’ between the body and the brain. There are very delicate veins (Vertebral Arteries) here which supply blood to our brain.

When a barber or masseur jerks or twists your neck forcefully, these delicate nerves may get ‘teared’ on the inside.

  1. Due to this incision, a blood clot accumulates there.
  2. This clot can reach the brain with the flow of blood.
  3. And as soon as it stops the supply to the brain— Stroke occurs.

What things should be taken special care of?
Doctors say that it is not necessary that symptoms appear immediately. Sometimes this may take weeks. If you feel any of the following after a massage, don’t ignore it:

  • Sudden severe dizziness (vertigo).
  • Blurry or darkness before the eyes.
  • Constant pain in the neck.
  • Stumbling in walking or difficulty in speaking.

Should we stop the massage now?
See, there is nothing wrong in being relaxed, but the way should be right.

  • Say ‘NO’ to the neck: The next time the barber tries to chop your neck, strictly refuse,
  • Shoulder massage only: You can get a light massage of the shoulders or head, but do not put pressure on the bones and nerves of the neck.
  • Elderly people should avoid this more: Veins become harder with increasing age, hence elderly people should stay away from neck massage.
