Can patients with lumbar disc herniation exercise?

For patients with lumbar disc herniation, the ability to play sports is determined by the patient’s condition. Generally speaking, during the acute attack of lumbar disc herniation, rest in a hard bed must be taken, and appropriate treatment must be taken, and sports are absolutely prohibited. During the remission period of the acute attack of lumbar disc herniation or in patients who are already in remission with only mild symptoms, they can participate in sports appropriately, but slowly and with appropriate control of the amount of activity, gradually. Do not exercise suddenly and vigorously, and choose sports items, and choose sports items with relatively little lumbar activity and load at the beginning, and take protective measures such as wearing a wide belt or lumbar girth when exercising. As long as the symptoms of lumbar disc herniation aggravate, you must rest and wait for the symptoms to improve before you can carry out sports again, do not blindly adhere to the activities. In short, lumbar disc herniation patients properly carry out some sports, not only can enhance the lumbar blood circulation and play a role in alleviating lumbar disc herniation, but also can strengthen the strength of the lumbar back muscle, so that the stability of the lumbar spine is enhanced, and play a role in reducing the recurrence of lumbar disc herniation.
