What is lumbar disc herniation? The lumbar disc is a structure inside the lumbar spine, and the human lumbar spine is a whole of the lumbar spine composed of five bones, and a link connecting these five pieces is the intervertebral disc. The outside of the disc is a particularly dense fibrous ring, and the middle is a structure that accounts for about 1/3 of the total body called the nucleus pulposus. The lumbar disc herniation is a degenerative change in the adult intervertebral disc, so that the disc loses its original elasticity and cannot bear the original pressure. In overstrain, sudden change of position, violent action or violent impact, resulting in the rupture of the fibrous ring, so that the nucleus pulposus protrudes outward through the ruptured fibrous ring fissure. The lumbar spine disease should not be easily “knifed” in the treatment of lumbar disc herniation, due to the early acceptance of irregular treatment methods, resulting in aggravation of the disease, and finally had to open surgery, creating the impression of “lumbar herniation difficult to treat” for patients. Although open surgery can solve the problems associated with lumbar disc herniation, the surgery is traumatic, the recovery time is long and expensive, and the possible surgical accidents and sequelae of the surgery should not be ignored, and improper treatment can also aggravate the condition. Therefore, patients should have a clear typing of their condition under the guidance of professional doctors, and the size and location of the herniated nucleus pulposus and their physical condition are the basis for treatment. Middle-aged people should be more cautious in choosing treatment. In middle-aged people, their immunity decreases due to age and accompanying diseases, and they are less tolerant to open surgery, coupled with longer postoperative bed rest and slower recovery, which causes anxiety and depression before and after surgery, and postoperative complications should not be underestimated. Most middle-aged people like to eat health care products or even painkillers to stop their pain, not knowing that the intervertebral disc is non-vascular tissue, mainly by the infiltration of cartilage plate to provide nutrition, and most of the drugs need to be absorbed by the gastrointestinal, through the blood circulation to reach the lesion site, so the effectiveness of the treatment is very little. If conservative treatment based on tui na, acupuncture and physiotherapy is used, it can temporarily relieve the symptoms, but it is easy to relapse and not easy to cure. After treatment, patients should strengthen the exercise of the lumbar back muscles to reduce the slippage of the vertebrae and strengthen the stability of the spine. At the same time, you can also go to the hospital to do CT, MRI, check to see if there is any improvement in the protruding location, never be fooled by the symptoms of “back pain relief or disappearance”, giving recurrence a chance to take advantage of.
