Since the concept of lumbar disc herniation was introduced by Mixter and Barr at Massachusetts General Hospital in 1934, it has become one of the most researched lumbar spine disorders today.

Lumbar disc herniation itself has no obvious symptoms, but when the herniated disc presses on the peripheral nerves, corresponding symptoms of low back pain, leg pain, and leg numbness will appear. This disease is mostly seen in young people, including Dr. Tsang himself, who also has a herniated disc.

The intervertebral discs are soft tissue.用The usual method of radiography cannot visualize the disc, but it can be detected with CT and MRI

1. CT:Widely used in spinal surgery, it is painless for the patient and has a clear image. A lumbar spine CT can directly visualize the herniation and show nerve root compression.

2. Magnetic resonance (MRI):It has high resolution for soft tissues and can show intervertebral discs, lumbar ligaments, presence or absence of spinal stenosis, and spinal canal tumors more clearly than CT, but it is not as effective as CT for examination of bones.

How is a herniated disc treated? Can it recover naturally?

1、After the herniated nucleus pulposus of the intervertebral disc, it can be gradually atrophied and absorbed, and the local damage can be replaced by the repair of fibrous tissues, so that the pressure on the nerve root can be reduced, and the symptoms can be gradually relieved.Patients with first attacks can often be cured non-surgically。

2,Rest is a form of therapy, too.If you want to recover from a herniated disc, you need absolute bed rest in the acute phase, pooping and peeing in bed.Most patients with a first attack experience relief of symptoms within 3 weeks。

3, however, the relief is relief, the damage has been self repair, but after all, also when the weak link, once the lumbar spine again by the injury, the disc pressure increases, will again trigger the herniation, and the symptoms will become more and more serious, episodes of the cycle is getting shorter and shorter. So if you are in a position to find the cause of the herniated disc (usually work-related), you need to change your job to something easier.

4、If the herniated disc is serious and cannot be relieved by rest, medication and injection, massage, etc., and the back and leg pain has seriously affected your life, you can consider surgery.

After relieving your symptoms through rest, you can also perform some rehabilitation exercises for a herniated disc

Since Dr. Tsang also has a herniated disc, here are rehabilitation exercises that I have personally tested and that work.

1, Plank upper body support:With your body lying on your back, support your upper body with your elbows bilaterally, hold for 10-15 minutes, and once you have adapted to this arc, you can support your entire upper body with the palms of your hands. (As shown in the picture)

2. Side stretching exercises:Remember, for low back pain on that side, you need to side your back to whichever side, e.g., if you have low back and leg pain on the right side, you need to do body side movements to the right side. (As shown in the picture)

3. Upright backward:If you work at a desk for a long period of time, get off the bench every 40 minutes and stand up and do a few "backward bends" (stretching).

This kind of problem in fact has long had a special study, herniated disc compression of the nerve leading to patients with pain and other symptoms is a natural tendency to recover, this time is generally about three months, and if the doctor to give appropriate help, the patient appropriate cooperation, it may be possible to shorten this time, generally if after more than three months of conservative treatment, the patient does not relieve the symptoms, or even aggravation of the situation If the patient is not relieved after three months or more of conservative treatment, or even if there is an aggravation, surgical intervention is required.

A herniated lumbar disc compresses the patient's nerves, a condition that often has to be defined as aherniated lumbar disk. Patients presenting with腰痛furthermoreThe pain would radiate along the sciatic nerve to the distal part of the limb.Some patients exhibit not only pain, but also aBurning sensation in the limbs.And there are some patients who exhibit limbiclacking strength。

Why do we have herniated lumbar discs?

Our lumbar intervertebral disc is a relatively strong structure that is made up of vertebrae located between the two sides of thenucleus pulposusand the nucleus pulposus that surrounds the medullafiber ringand the cartilage connecting the vertebrae on both sidesendplateTogether, this end plate can be understood if people feel bad about it, and it is understood as two pieces of cartilage. The main purpose is actually very simple, is to undertake the pressure of the lumbar spine, better protection of the lumbar spine. But because of the long timeon one's feet、sedentary lifestyle、overuseLumbar hyperlordosisgrindas well ascontraindicationof the many reasons why lumbar discs can slowly developdegenerationThat is.ageing. The discs will no longer become as full of water as they were in their youth, but will gradually become dried out, and the distance between the two vertebrae will become narrower, which will also exacerbate the tendency of the discs to press toward the 4 periphery of the vertebrae.

If the herniated disc does not irritate a nerve or produce symptoms elsewhere, then there will be no problem. And when the herniatedmesenchymal tissueWhen the nerve root is irritated, the patient exhibits pain as well as radiating symptoms.

Generally clarifying a lumbar disc herniation requires a ct or MRI. Often, based on the imaging presentation, we categorize lumbar disc herniation intoExpansion, protrusion, prolapse, and freeing4 states, each of which also represents a different severity of lumbar disc herniation.Swimming is one of the heaviest cases.

Relatively speaking, lighter protrusions tend to recover faster the moreRecovery tends to be slower when herniation is heavier and there is more nerve irritation。

So in the beginning of the article has been introduced to you, now there are studies have proved that lumbar disc herniation is a tendency to recover, usually three months, so as a doctor and the patient how to work together, try to shorten the course of the disease, as soon as possible to slow down the patient's symptoms so that the patient to return to their daily lives to go.

Basics: Try to use the lumbar spine scientifically and rationally to reduce the use of the lumbar spine and reduce the irritation to the nerve roots.

Often, after a lumbar disc herniation, patients ask their doctors to help them relieve their symptoms right away, but peopleIt's important to realize that this problem is the result of a cumulative effort over timeThe patient will not be able to get immediate relief from the symptoms unless he or she is anesthetized, which is virtually impossible. Often lumbar disc problems, are due to the usual improper use of the lumbar spine or overuse of the lumbar spine, then once there is a nerve root irritation to reduce for the nerve root stimulation is very critical. This is equivalent to the neighborhood had been not very good relations, then it is necessary toMinimal contact to reduce frictionIf neighbors who do not get along well are still forced to get along with each other, it may lead to an escalation of conflicts.

Therefore, it is recommended that patients with lumbar disc herniation should properly use lumbar spineDon't do anything that significantly increases the pressure on the herniated disc, such as carrying heavy objects.as far as possibleReducing sedentary behaviorof time, it's best to put one on your lower back when you're sittingcushionsAnd as much as possible.Don't cross your legs for long periods of timeorstick one leg over the other (when sitting)This can increase the pressure on the lumbar discs, leading to prolonged symptoms of a herniated lumbar disc.

If you fail to take care of your lumbar spine, then even the most expensive money, medication, and treatments mayunhelpful, this is where as a patient you must actively work with your doctor.

Acupuncture, traction, manipulation, physical therapy can all be tried

All of these treatments actually aim to reduce the irritation of the herniated lumbar disc on the nerve roots.give or have acupuncture and moxibustion、manual therapyand a lot ofphysiotherapyFor example, jamming power can actually work very well.Relaxes the muscles around the spineIf the muscles around the spine are relaxed, then the natural pressure between the vertebrae will be reduced, the protruding discs may have a mild retraction, and the pressure on the nerve roots will naturally be reduced. And for the lumbar spineTraction therapy does the same thing.During traction, we give the patient a certain amount of tension in the lumbar region, which also aims to pull the tense vertebrae away properly, so that the herniated discs will have a certain amount of retraction. But generallyTraction is generally appropriate for patients with more pronounced peripheral nerve root entrapment, and if centralized lumbar disc herniation traction is risky, it is not recommended.

Drug treatment options

It has already been mentioned that a lot of lumbar herniated discs can lead toedema and inflammation of the nerves.Then to alleviate the symptoms brought on by nerve problems we have to take theControl of inflammation和dropsyTwo treatments are the main measures. To control inflammation, we generally recommend the use of non-carrier anti-inflammatory analgesics, this class of drugs can be very good to help patients eliminate sterile inflammation, so as to achieve the purpose of reducing pain, but if thePatients with gastric ulcers or who are in the anticoagulation phase after cardiac stenting should not take this class of drugs. And the medications that eliminate edema, often we recommend theis an extract of the seeds of Cornus officinalis.This drug has been used in the clinic for more than 20 years, for promoting venous return to eliminate swelling effect is good, can be completely as a lumbar disc herniation a kind of auxiliary treatment measures. And if there has been obvious radiating pain in the lower limbs, or even electric shock like pain, there are sensory abnormalities, manifested as a burning sensation of friends, often due to nerve irritation is relatively large, just to recommend appropriate neurotrophic treatment, you can take oral neurotrophic drugs. In addition lumbar disc herniation can also lead toTension in the muscles around the spine, with appropriate oral muscle relaxantsIt is also known to help patients with symptoms.

If after about four to six weeks, the patient's pain and various symptoms are not significantly relieved, intralesional therapy may be considered.

This treatment is currently under the purview of the pain physician, who will assess the patient's status and consider giving thePerforming intralesional injections of certain anesthetic and anti-inflammatory drugs.Helps patients control localized inflammation and reduce pain. Injections are usually given at intervals of about 10 days, three times for a course of treatment.

It is also recommended that patients who have a requirement for a herniation remove proper rest and also perform proper lumbar disc rehabilitation exercises.

In fact, to be honest, proper rest as well as scientific and systematic rehabilitation exercises are often a very effective treatment for lumbar disc herniation. ButIt's hard to really be able to take a breakAfter all, we still have to raise a family, and complete and total rest is generally too much for the average person to bear, and this is a situation that doctors can still understand better, butIt's incomprehensible to say that you can't stick to rehab.. Because the general rehabilitation exercise, at most, can spend about 10 minutes to 20 minutes, every morning and evening to do once, can be relatively good to help the patient to relieve the symptoms of back pain, if you say that can not adhere to it, it is indeed a bit of a statement.The best rehabilitation exercises are often individualized programs that are developed after a systematic evaluation by a professional rehabilitator or rehabilitation therapist., but nowadays such conditions are not encountered by everyone, especially in some tertiary and quaternary cities where patients often do not have such conditions.The main reason is that the development of rehabilitation medicine is still not particularly developed, and some hospitals and patients still do not recognize the importance of rehabilitation.。

The following are some rehabilitation exercises that can also be done in the acute phase of lumbar pain, and may not be suitable for everyone, patients with low back pain or those with herniated discsTry them one by one.In order to find that rehabilitation workout that suits you, it is usually enough to perform about 2~3 movements, please remember which one of the movements can be done with a comfortable feeling in the lower back and stick to it, while if which one of the movements is done with an uncomfortable feeling, it will not be done! General each action is recommended about 15~20 times per group, every day adhere to do 2~3 groups.

summarize

The above is the answer to the question, lumbar disc herniation compression to the nerve patients will produce obvious low back pain as well as radiating pain in the lower limbs, as long as there is no obvious symptoms of nerve damage, such asdiaphragmatic incontinence or dysfunction of the limbs, it is possible to try conservative treatment.And there have been experimental data to prove that the lumbar disc herniation compressed nerve this situation to recover to go through about three months of time. Patients with lumbar disc herniation should learn to rest and learn rehabilitation exercises, which is the basis of treatment, and during the period of conservative treatment, they should actively seek the help of the doctor, and the doctor and the patient should work together to observe the changes in their condition in time, and decide which treatment plan is more suitable for them. This will enable the patient to return to daily life as soon as possible without further aggravation of the condition. It is recommended that patients with lumbar disc herniation should have the confidence and patience to believe in the effectiveness of conservative treatment, because there are nearly70-80% of patients can be treated conservativelyand some patients have had very good results. If afterConservative treatment that does not relieve symptoms for more than three months, in considering surgical treatment is desirable, if you have other concerns you can leave a comment below to discuss.

I am Xie Xinhui who insists on using simple language to explain the knowledge of complex diseases, it is not easy to code, if you agree with my point of view, please help to point a concern or click a like it, if you or your family members, friends also have lumbar disc herniation trouble, please forward this article to the need of their it, so that maybe it will help them to build up a better confidence, thank you!

Herniated disc compressed nerve, want to recover naturally itself is a very difficult thing, because the herniated disc itself is a long process, which is long-term bad habits lead to disc herniation, correction is already a very difficult thing. Want to restore the compressed nerve, the first need to herniated disc healing good, to restore the compressed nerve, on the one hand, depends on the nerve compression, on the other hand also depends on the patient's own recovery ability. So there is no way to give an exact time.

exercise in moderation

Herniated disc is a herniated, or ectopic, bone in the spine. It can affect our daily life when it is serious, so you can do more exercises to exercise your body, so that you can have better health and higher immunity. Besides, proper exercise can make our bones more flexible. Remember not to overdo it and not to flash the spine.

Avoid prolonged sitting

A herniated disc can affect the way a person walks or even sits, so don't sit for long periods of time. Prolonged sitting can cause pain in the spine and even immobility, aggravating the condition of a herniated disc.

Sit correctly.

It is important to adopt the correct sitting posture, correct your herniated disc condition in time, and move appropriately for relief. So as not to aggravate the condition.

physiotherapy

If the herniated disc compresses the nerve for a long time and is not good, you can take physical therapy cupping acupuncture and other ways to treat and regulate. But be sure to go to a regular hospital for physical therapy.

receive medical treatment

If nothing works to alleviate it or it does not recover naturally, it is advisable to go to the hospital and recover through normal treatment routes.

Herniated discs that compress the nerves and cause pain are becoming more common and younger. Sitting on the computer at work and playing with cell phones after work makes it easy for the discs to bulge and herniate, compressing the surrounding nerves and causing radiating pain or numbness.

Let's first understand the structure of the intervertebral disc, mainly composed of the vertebral body and nucleus pulposus, annulus fibrosus. The annulus fibrosus is made of cartilage and the nucleus pulposus is a gelatinous substance. In layman's terms, the intervertebral disc is like a sugar fire, the outside is wrapped in dough and the inside is sugar thin. When you forcefully squeeze the crust from the outside, the crust is compressed and breaks, and the sugar thinning flows out. The compression of the surrounding spinal nerves leads to radiating pain and numbness.

In the rehabilitation department such a lot of patients, I hand a uncle bank retirement protrudes a few sections, the most serious protrudes 0.6, get up every day to wear shoes. After three months of treatment, now only slight discomfort.

So what is the treatment? Here's what to tell you about the treatment of lumbar disc herniation: .

1, lying flat, which is also the best way to recover naturally, lying on a hard board bed, a layer of mattress can be. Don't move, try not to get up, eat, drink and shit are solved in bed. Lying on the 1 month will basically obvious relief, the symptoms are light basically all right. Especially in the acute stage, do not move.

2, suspension treatment, this need to go to a specialized rehabilitation department, by allowing the body in a weightless state, adjusting the body in a painless position, exercise core muscle groups, stabilize the spine, with massage techniques to quickly relieve pain and muscle spasm.

3, five-point support method, this and the bridge movement or a certain difference. This method requires lying flat on the bed or on the ground, bend your legs, then use your head, feet, elbow joints five points of support, lift your buttocks, so that the front of the body into a slant, this position can be maintained for a period of time, so that you can do 3 to 5 times a day, and after doing so, lie flat for half an hour.

4, there is taking some non-steroidal drugs, acute edema with mannitol and so on. When the lumbar pain is obviously relieved can do some small swallow fly, flat support and so on to further exercise the core muscle groups.

I think it is still necessary to change the habits of life and work, often get up and move a few minutes at work, go out for a walk after work to exercise, avoid sitting for a long time, stooping, lifting heavy objects, etc., but also need to avoid sudden exertion, as well as traumatic injury and impact.

I am Dr. Lee from the Rehabilitation Department. Stay away from sub-health and enjoy a healthy life.

A: (1) Answering this question requires a brief understanding of what a lumbar disc herniation is.

Lumbar disc herniation is mainly due to the lumbar disc tissues (nucleus pulposus, annulus fibrosus or cartilage plate), especially the nucleus pulposus, have different degrees of degenerative changes, under the action of traumatic injury or other factors, resulting in the intervertebral disc's annulus fibrosus rupture, the nucleus pulposus tissue protrudes from the rupture place (or prolapses), and compresses the peripheral spinal nerves and/or cauda equina nerves, which causes a series of clinical symptoms such as lumbar pain, numbness of the two lower limbs, pain, weakness, even perineal area numbness, urinary and fecal dysfunction and a series of clinical symptoms. Lumbar disc herniation is most common in lumbar 4/5 and lumbar 5/sacral 1.

(2) What should you do if you have a herniated lumbar disc?

It can be broadly categorized into conservative and surgical treatments.

A. Conservative treatment: nearly 90% of the patients with herniated disc can be cured or significantly improved after regular non-operative treatment. Non-surgical treatment is mainly suitable for: ① young, first attack or short duration of the disease; ② the symptoms can be relieved by themselves after resting; ③ there is no serious degeneration and compression in the imaging examination.

Conservative treatment methods:

a. Bed rest: Generally, after 3 weeks of bed rest, get up and move around with a waist cuff, and do not bend down to hold anything for 3 months. This method is simple and effective, but difficult to adhere to.

b. Lumbar traction: The use of pelvic traction can slightly widen the intervertebral space, reduce the internal pressure of the intervertebral disc, and expand the capacity of the spinal canal so as to reduce the irritation or compression of the nerve root.

c. Physiotherapy, massage and acupressure: this can relax the spastic muscles and further reduce the pressure on the intervertebral discs. There are many specific methods, and there are many domestic practitioners in this field, with varying levels, so the efficacy varies greatly. It should be noted that violent massage often does more harm than good.

d. Drug therapy: use of non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs, dehydration drugs, nutritive nerve drugs and other symptomatic treatment.

B. Surgical treatment:

Surgery is needed for patients who have been treated conservatively for more than 3 months, or who have recurrent symptoms, intractable pain, or cauda equina syndrome. The main surgical methods include posterior open window simple nucleus pulposus removal, minimally invasive intervertebral foraminoscopic nucleus pulposus removal, nucleus pulposus removal and decompression intervertebral implant fusion and internal fixation, and so on.

(3) Can a herniated disc in the lumbar spine that is pressing on a nerve recover naturally? How long does it take?

This is mainly related to the severity and duration of the compression. Nerve tissue is different from other tissues in the body, and once damage occurs, it is difficult to recover. Generally speaking, the more serious the compression and the longer the duration of compression, the more difficult it is to recover nerve function. After the lumbar disc herniation compresses the nerves, corresponding symptoms will appear, such as double lower limb pain, numbness, loss of strength, etc., and even urinary and fecal dysfunction will occur in serious cases. If there is a loss of sensation or abnormality in the lower limbs, loss of strength in the lower limbs, or obvious muscle atrophy in the lower limbs, it means that there is already damage to the nerves, and there is little possibility of natural nerve recovery at this time. Of course, there are also a small number of patients with lumbar disc herniation, after a series of conservative treatment, the protruding disc will slowly "absorb" and disappear. There is no good way to predict this situation. Therefore, if a herniated lumbar disc compresses the nerves and the corresponding clinical symptoms appear, it is recommended to go to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment, and to get a specialist's opinion on the treatment, so as to avoid delaying the condition.

Thanks for the invitation!

There is a lot of uncertainty in self-recovery from a lumbar herniated disc, so there is no way to tell you if you can recover naturally through your body's ability to heal itself. However, most lumbar herniated discs are painful in the acute stage, and will be relieved in about 2 months, so it is recommended that you do not rush to choose surgery because of acute pain.

Analysis of reports

No imaging photos, no symptoms, write speculatively! From your report, the main problem is a herniated L5-S1 disc protruding to the right posteriorly, compressing the dural sac or nerve root on the right side.The symptoms of a herniated L5-S1 disc may manifest as follows:

Back pain on the right side → pain in the back of the right hip → back of the right thigh → back of the right calf → pain or numbness in the right ankle and outside of the little toe.

More than twenty days, you are still a new patient in the early stages, and it is also possible that the pain has not progressed to the distal part of the nerve root, in a part of this line, and if it is symptomatic of the corresponding area, coughing and sneezing can also be painful, you can diagnose the symptoms caused by lumbar herniated discs.

personal recommendation

If your symptoms of these 20 days has been improved, you can not rush treatment, to give the body the ability to heal itself for a certain period of time, this period should not be absolutely bedridden, appropriate out of bed walking, to avoid muscle atrophy and loss of joints motor movement. (Do not cause symptoms or aggravation as the limit)

If your symptoms haven't improved in the past 20 days, or further aggravated, make sure to seek medical attention in time, this period is the best time for recovery, to avoid the emergence of some chronic problems due to long-term pain, which will increase the difficulty of recovery.

For minor lumbar herniated disc compression nerve part of the patient can be self-healing, but this self-healing is not the herniated part of the disc back to its original state. The patient in the long-term sedentary, stooping, lifting heavy objects, weight-bearing may also recur. Lumbar disc herniation can actually be self-healing we have to analyze from the pathogenesis and treatment.

Lumbar disc herniation can be categorized as bulging, protruding, prolapsing, or free from in terms of the severity of herniation. Regardless of which of the above types, the annulus fibrosus on the disc is ruptured to varying degrees. Under the weight of the body, the annulus fibrosus in only a small percentage of the population can heal itself, while the majority of the others have ruptured annulus fibrosus for a long period of time.

Inflammatory damage to the nerves is caused by compression of the spinal cord and nerve roots by herniated material, or displacement of the vertebral body and narrowing of the intervertebral foramen to compress the nerve roots. At this time, it is necessary to relax the tense muscles and ligaments, and correct the displaced vertebrae through repositioning, so as to reduce the pressure on the annulus fibrosus due to the pulling and compression by the upper and lower vertebrae, and to reduce the pressure of the herniated material on the nerves and spinal cord. However, the repair of the fibrous ring is very difficult, so the disease may still have the possibility of recurrence, only the clinical symptoms are gone.

For some severe patients, only surgery can be taken to remove the nucleus pulposus and the annulus fibrosus. On the surface, the symptoms are eliminated, but the destruction and stability of the vertebral body is also very serious, and this same problem can cause new compression.

In conclusion, for some minor herniations, by lying flat and reducing exercise to get through the acute phase, and then improving the lumbar muscles and the small vertebral joints through physical therapy and some exercise therapy, minor lumbar herniations can eliminate the symptoms, and it usually takes 1-3 months to recuperate.

Anyone else with similar issues to explore can follow my headline.

In recent years, the incidence of herniated disc disease in the clinic is increasing. Some patients also due to the presence of herniated disc disease, and compression of the body's nerves, at this time many people will be curious, at this time the body to return to normal state about how long it takes?

In fact, this is mainly related to the severity and duration of the compression. As there is a certain difference between nerve tissue and other tissues of the human body, once the body has been damaged, it is often difficult to recover. Generally speaking, the more serious the compression on the patient's body is and the longer the duration of the compression, the more difficult it is to recover the normal nerve function.

If the lumbar intervertebral disc herniation compresses the nerves, the patient's body will often have the following symptoms, such as bilateral lower limb pain, numbness, decreased strength, etc., and if the situation is serious, urinary and fecal dysfunction may also occur. It is worth noting that if the patient's body has already appeared double lower limb sensory loss or abnormality, lower limb strength loss performance, at this time often suggests that the nerve has already existed in the damage, and the possibility of natural recovery of the nerve has been very small.

It can be seen that if, in the clinic, the patient has a herniated lumbar disc compressing the nerves, and at the same time, there are corresponding clinical symptoms, then it is best to go to a specialized hospital for examination and treatment, to formulate an appropriate plan, and actively cooperate with the doctor's treatment, so as to avoid delaying the condition.

I have personal experience with this one and it definitely brings you back to being able to dance naturally!

First look at the location of the herniated disc.

Look at the normal vs.

A herniated disc compressing sciatica can cause nerve pain in both legs or one side, to the point where it is as painful and numb as pins and needles, and you can't walk, can't sit, and can't go to the bathroom normally!

Ninety-eight percent of those who develop the disease do not need surgery and will recover naturally by lying flat on their backs in a hard bed for more than two months. I was lucky, met two doctors are like this: "There is no good method, go back to lying on a hard bed for three to four months, serious eating and drinking in bed! Taking medicine will only stop the pain, can not play a role in the disease!"

My one leg stung and drilled like paralysis, I could only eat on my stomach, and I lay in bed moaning every day.

Chinese medicine believes that lumbar spondylosis is caused by kidney deficiency, and my disease is to engage in farming and moving materials from, but I still firmly believe that we need to strengthen the kidneys. Lying in bed, began to strengthen the kidney exercise, the most effective way is to practice lifting the anus, yawning to do stretching movements. Three months later, I recovered as before, and began to move two thousand pounds of material every day.

This is entirely due to the strong kidneys on the sickbed exercise, and unremittingly every day pawing the toes of the hands in the sky walking 100 meters, hard to straighten the lumbar vertebrae. The body is healthier than the original, the height seems to be two centimeters taller, can dance, can sing one by one, jumping around, is not it beautiful?

Don't listen to the general doctor's advice of surgical treatment, and don't go to a small clinic to do some treatments, those are all laborious acts, and you are the one who suffers in the end! Unless it is really so serious that you have to do surgery, then go for surgery.

Lying flat on your back on a hard bed can save you, and kidney-strengthening exercises are more likely to make you more refreshed and healthy than normal.

I am a contemporary Taishang Senshi, an experiencer of painful trials and tribulations, and a pioneer in sincerely freeing people from lumbar spine pain! I wish all lumbar spine patients in the world to heal themselves without medication!

This question can be said to be the concern of every friend of lumbar disc herniation.

We'll start by analyzing the problem, which consists of several factors:

About "herniated disk compressing nerve"

Whether it is substantial compression or not is something that many people are not sure about, and people are used to saying casually that they have a pinched nerve after symptoms appear in the leg. You know, if the protrusion is actually pressing on the nerve, then conservative treatment is basically ineffective, and the symptoms will persist 24 hours a day.

In fact, in 90% of lumbar disc herniations, no substantial compression is created!

It is also this point that lumbar protrusion is first and foremost an option for conservative treatment. So why is sciatica there when the herniation is not substantially compressing the nerve?

During the process of protrusion of the nucleus pulposus from the annulus fibrosus, the annulus fibrosus is gradually injured. The initial injury to the annulus fibrosus is called "bulging", and the annulus fibrosus at this time is only "depressed" a little bit from the image;

If not well treated, the nucleus pulposus protrudes further into the annulus fibrosus, a period called "protrusion," in which the protrusion destroys the annulus fibrosus, and progresses to prolapse and freeing.

In these 4 stages of lumbar disc herniation, the annulus fibrosus is damaged to varying degrees, and in this process of destruction, out of the damage to the annulus fibrosus, one more thing happens: aseptic inflammation out of thePresent.

This sterile inflammation is different from the kind of inflammation we often call "inflammation". Aseptic inflammation, there is no bacterial life, ordinary anti-inflammatory drugs have no effect on it, and, at present, no matter Chinese and Western medicine, have not found a special effect on it.

That's why it's listed as: the second most difficult inflammation to get rid of.

It is the presence of this sterile inflammation that irritates the muscle tissue and nerves surrounding the lesion, resulting in a variety of symptoms.

Not only that, but other complications: straightening of the lumbar curvature, osteophytes, hypertrophy of the ligamentum flavum, etc., all of which are associated with aseptic inflammation, can lead to low back pain, leg pain, and numbness in the legs, even in the absence of a herniated lumbar disc.

On "natural recovery"

The phrase "natural recovery" in the question has two meanings:

1. Recovery of symptoms

From the description of the topic, it appears that the subject is still in the acute phase.

The acute phase of lumbar disc herniation is "too much" because there is no good way to make the symptoms of the acute phase disappear completely (except for painkillers). Therefore, the acute phase is not only a pain in the limbs for the first time, but also a psychological torture for those who are not relieved from the symptoms day by day.

Acute phase of the relief of symptoms, usually between 1 to 3 months after the onset of the disease, especially in the first month, will have a more obvious impact on life, this time should not carry out too much activity and exercise, it is best to wear a waist circumference, do not let the lumbar region of the cold, daily work, do not sit for a long time and long standing, avoid bending over to carry heavy objects.

When the acute phase is over, the symptoms slowly disappear, but it does not mean that the disease is "cured". The next step is to prevent recurrence.

During the recovery period, it is very suitable for conservative treatments: acupuncture, unblocking the bladder meridian, moxibustion, baking electricity, herbal fumigation and so on, can all be used in conjunction with each other. However, please remember not to rely on a single method of treatment, as each treatment method has its advantages and disadvantages, and must be based on your own physical condition to cooperate with each other.

2. Whether or not the nucleus pulposus can be retrieved

Almost every patient with lumbar herniation wants to have the herniated "nucleus pulposus" shrink back and the fibrous ring grow back.

But what makes lumbar synostosis so difficult to heal is precisely the lack of blood-carrying tissue on our discs, which doesn't grow back in a matter of days like a skin rupture.
