Do you know the phrase "dural bag"? Surely not. People tend to be interested in something only if it concerns them. But, probably, it is better to learn about some things in advance than then, in which case, to encounter a mass of unfamiliar expressions.
A dural bag and everything about it
First you need to say how knowledge of this term will help you. The dural sac is, first of all, the organ of any human body. But we must know what we are made of, what is called. Very common these days is a disease such as a hernia. And it is directly related to this, as yet not very clear phrase.
Definition
A dural sac is a sealed, sealed sac that is formed by the meninges (solid). It houses the human spinal cord. It is a well-known fact that the spinal cord, as such, has no receptors responsible for pain at all. However, if the dural sac is deformed, the person begins to experience severe pain. Why? Because the brain responds to this pathology, to be more precise, some parts of the cortex.
Dural sac and intervertebral hernia
Surely people suffering from this disease know firsthand everything about the terms and designations associated with it. Let's summarize everything again in simple words. What is the spinal canal? This is a collection of holes. The spinal canal has several walls. The dorsal is formed with the help of yellow ligaments and arches (vertebrates). The lateral is limited to the surfaces of the legs of the arcs. The front wall is built from the back surfaces of the vertebrae. In fact, all this is easy to understand if you look at special photos, for example, in textbooks used by students of medical colleges and universities.
The relationship of the dural sac with the disease
At approximately the level of the lower back, a special spinal nerve runs parallel to the dural sac. Then the first one begins to change its direction around the vertebrae. The bag of the meninges (and this is the dural sac) is attached to the spinal canal. If there is even a slight deformation of the bag, the person periodically feels pain. It can be osteochondrosis or hernia.
