Lumbar disc herniation is serious and prolonged compression of the nerve roots and cauda equina may damage the sciatic nerve causing paralysis, but it is less common. Lumbar disc herniation is a syndrome caused by degeneration of the lumbar intervertebral discs while the annulus fibrosus ruptures partially or completely, and the nucleus pulposus protrudes to irritate or compress the nerve root and cauda equina. If the condition is serious, large pieces of intervertebral disc tissue are broken and protrude into the spinal canal, extensive nerve damage symptoms such as muscle atrophy, muscle weakness and even paralysis can occur. The majority of patients with lumbar disc herniation have a good prognosis and can usually be treated satisfactorily with conservative treatment. If conservative treatment is ineffective, surgery can be performed. If symptoms such as back pain occur, it is recommended to go to the hospital in a timely manner and standardize the treatment under the guidance of the doctor, so as not to aggravate the condition and cause serious adverse reactions.
