Problems with COVD-19 are not limited to the infection itself, but also include the secondary health damage arising from the prolonged self-restraint, which has affected all age groups in the Japanese population. Numerous studies have reported clear evidence of the secondary health damage. Published reports cover a wide range of damages, from locomotive dysfunction caused by decreased physical activity to decreased cognitive function and changes in eating and oral functions, and further to decreased opportunities for social participation. Such damage can also lead to worsening of so-called frailty. Under this circumstance, orthopedic surgeons conducted a questionnaire survey to determine the physical changes observed after the start of the COVD-19 self-restraint period. In this article, we report findings of the survey, along with some literature considerations.
The survey was started two months after the state of emergency in Japan was lifted, July 20 to August 12, 2020 (16 days total). And the analysis was conducted by simple and cross tabulation.
Valid responses to the questionnaire were obtained from 12,254 participants. Approximately 40% of the subjects felt a lack of physical strength (Corona stress), with the percentage peaking in high school, in the elderly it remained rather below average. On the other hand, locomotive dysfunction (Corona locomo) increased with age, independent of physical activity, and was not correlated with Corona stress.
Japanese citizens need to change their behaviors for the purpose of improving their exercise and lifestyle habits towards shifting to a new lifestyle norm. Looking ahead to the ``With Corona'' era, it is considered necessary by selecting a tailor-made training method suitable for each age group.
COVID-19 问题不仅限于感染本身，还包括由于长时间自我克制而导致的继发性健康损害，这影响了日本人口的所有年龄段。许多研究都报告了明确的继发性健康损害证据。已发表的报告涵盖了广泛的损害，从因身体活动减少而导致的运动功能障碍到认知功能下降以及饮食和口腔功能的变化，再到社交参与机会的减少。这种损害还可能导致所谓的虚弱恶化。在这种情况下，矫形外科医生进行了问卷调查，以确定 COVID-19 自我克制期开始后观察到的身体变化。在本文中，我们报告了调查结果，并对一些文献进行了考虑。
该调查于日本解除紧急状态两个月后开始，即 2020 年 7 月 20 日至 8 月 12 日（共 16 天）。并通过简单和交叉制表进行分析。
从 12254 名参与者中获得了对问卷的有效回复。约 40%的受试者感到体力不足（Corona 压力），高中学生的比例最高，老年人的比例则相当低。另一方面，运动功能障碍（Corona locomo）随年龄增长而增加，与体力活动无关，与 Corona 压力无关。
日本公民需要改变行为，目的是改善锻炼和生活方式习惯，以适应新的生活方式规范。展望“与 COVID-19 共存”的时代，有必要根据每个年龄段选择适合的定制训练方法。
