In recent years, the incidence of lumbar disc herniation is on the rise year by year, and foraminal surgery is hot …… Here is a look at the indications for intervertebral foramina first: 1, lumbar disc herniation: compression of the nerve, resulting in low back pain, low back pain, walking restrictions, intermittent claudication, etc. 2, lumbar discogenic low back pain: that is, the disc protrusion is not obvious, but the low back pain is obvious, recurrent, and conservative treatment is ineffective. At this time, the intervertebral disc has already appeared structural damage, thus causing pain. 3, lumbar foraminal stenosis: In middle-aged and elderly patients with low back pain, the foraminal stenosis is formed due to bone spurs or ligamentous hypertrophy, resulting in nerve channel obstruction. Enlarging the intervertebral foramen can achieve nerve decompression. It is easy to see that he has many advantages, but philosophically speaking, there are two sides to everything. By carrying out intervertebral foraminoscopy of 214 cases of patients to see the return visit, the recent efficacy is very good, more than 95% of patients are satisfied; but three months – six months later, the patient’s satisfaction is gradually declining trend, there will be no pain degree of lumbar discomfort or intolerance of exertion symptoms. Can we try to ask a few questions in return? 1.Why does lumbar disc herniation cause low back pain or lumbar leg pain, walking limitation or even intermittent claudication? A: Because the degeneration or herniation of the disc compresses the corresponding sinus nerve or nerve root, and the symptoms of the corresponding innervated area appear. 2.What causes a herniated disc? A: The degeneration or rupture of the lumbar intervertebral disc fibrous ring leads to the herniation of the nucleus pulposus of the disc. 3.What causes degeneration or rupture of the lumbar intervertebral disc fibrous ring? A: Lumbar muscle strain. I think the answer is out, we can’t keep our eyes on the disc when treating herniated discs, the cure must be to the root, lumbar muscle strain is the root of the treatment. This is the root cause of unsatisfactory long-term results after foraminoplasty. Currently, our philosophy in treating herniated discs is to treat the symptoms in an acute manner and to treat the root cause in a slow manner. While treating the intravertebral canal in the acute phase, we work with arc-blade needles and silver needles to loosen the soft tissues outside the spinal canal to improve the long-term outcome and the patient’s quality of life. Some people believe that herniated discs cannot be cured at all and will recur at regular intervals. Others believe that it can be eradicated by a single treatment. Both of these perceptions are one-sided. We can say that herniated discs can be completely clinically cured, but regular maintenance and periodic review are required. — because the unhealthy life and work of the human body produces new soft tissue strain, slows down the blood supply to the discs, accelerates disc degeneration and produces new back pain. This also explains the question many patients have… “The doctor’s treatment can only relieve the symptoms, and after a period of time, they are back” misunderstanding. Finally, it is recommended: adhere to scientific exercise, reduce bad habits, and enjoy a pain-free and healthy life.
