The treatments available for herniated lumbar disc include general treatment, medication, physical therapy, surgery and so on. 1. General treatment: Herniated lumbar intervertebral discs should be put on bed rest, no more strenuous movements of the waist, and pay attention to keep the waist warm to avoid getting cold. 2. Medication: When the degree of lumbar disc herniation is mild, non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (e.g. diclofenac sodium) can be used to alleviate lumbar pain, and nutritive nerve drugs (e.g. methylcobalamin) can be used to repair the nerves. 3. Physical therapy: Herniated lumbar discs can be treated with hot compresses, massage, traction, physiotherapy, etc. to relax the lumbar muscles and promote local blood circulation, so as to relieve the symptoms. 4. Surgery: Surgery should be considered if the conservative treatment is ineffective or if the condition is serious such as obvious nerve damage. If you have a herniated lumbar disc, you should consult a doctor as soon as possible to clarify the extent of your condition and under the doctor’s guidance, you should undergo regular treatment. In addition, the above medications should also be used under the guidance of a doctor.
