후두암은 성대가 위치한 ‘후두’에 생기는 악성종양으로, 두경부암 가운데 가장 흔한 편이다. 건강보험심사평가원 자료에 따르면, 2022년 후두암으로 병원을 찾은 환자는 약 8900명에 달하며, 이 중 90% 이상이 남성이었다.임영창 건국대병원 이비인후-두경부외과 교수는 “후두암 환자의 대부분이 흡연이나 음주 이력이 있으며, 두 가지 요인이 함께 작용하면 발병 가능성이 크게 올라간다”고 설명했다.흡연은 성대 점막을 직접 자극해 세포 변형을 유도하고, 음주는 점막을 더 민감하게 만들어 발암물질 흡수를 쉽게 만든다. 여기에 과도한 발성 습관까지 더해지면 후두는 지속적인 손상에 노출된다.◇쉰 목소리 2주 이상? 꼭 검사받아야후두

척추관협착증은 노화나 퇴행성 변화로 척추 주변의 인대와 조직이 두꺼워지고 신경을 압박하면서 발생하는 질환이다. 주요 증상은 허리 통증과 다리 저림, 보행장애 등이며, 환자의 일상생활을 크게 제한한다.이에 따라 많은 환자들이 통증을 줄이기 위해 운동을 시도하지만, 방향을 잘못 잡으면 오히려 증상을 악화시킬 수 있다.모커리한방병원 관계자는 “협착증 운동은 ‘근육 강화’보다 ‘근육 이완’이 우선”이라고 강조한다.◇근력운동이 오히려 독이 될 수도많은 협착증 환자들이 “허리 근육이 약해서 통증이 생긴다”는 생각에 근력 운동을 시도한다. 그러나 김기옥 모커리한방병원장은 “협착증 환자의 근육은 이미 굳어 있고 긴장된

In the field of dentistry, the guiding principle remains clear: preserve natural teeth whenever possible. Although dental implants and prosthetic technologies have advanced considerably, the unique value of natural teeth—integral parts of the human body—remains unmatched by any artificial substitute.Natural teeth are firmly anchored to the jawbone and gums, with living nerves that provide detailed sensory feedback on food texture and temperature. They also play a critical role in distributing chewing forces evenly across the jaw, supporting bone health. Dental implants, while the closest app
