How long can a herniated lumbar disc be well in bed

Patients with a herniated lumbar disc need to be bedridden for at least three weeks, and it is best to be strictly bedridden and forbidden to move on the ground, so that the recurrence of the herniated lumbar disc can be adequately prevented and the fibrocartilage on the outside of the lumbar disc can recover as much as possible. Even after three weeks of strict bed rest, patients with herniated lumbar discs cannot be cured, and patients with herniated lumbar discs cannot stay in bed, even if they stay in bed, they cannot be cured. The symptoms of lumbar disc herniation will gradually disappear. The patient with a herniated lumbar disc should not stay in bed for more than four weeks, as prolonged bed rest can easily lead to atrophy of the lumbar muscles and surrounding soft tissues, making the lumbar spine more unstable and increasing the chance of recurrence of the herniated lumbar disc.
