How to treat a herniated disc in the cervical spine 2-3-4-5-6

Cervical 2-3-4-5-6 herniated discs can be treated conservatively or surgically. 1. Conservative treatment: Cervical 2-3-4-5-6 disc herniation can be treated conservatively if there is only cervical pain and discomfort, such as cervical traction, which can open the intervertebral space and relax the cervical muscles. Non-steroidal painkillers, such as nimesulide dispersible tablets or ibuprofen extended-release tablets, and muscle relaxants such as cotrimoxazole can be used under the guidance of a doctor, as well as acupuncture and physiotherapy. 2. Surgical treatment: If the cervical disc herniation compresses the nerves and the numbness of the upper limbs occurs, and there is no improvement after the conservative treatment, or the spinal cord type cervical spondylosis, surgical treatment can be taken, such as the removal of the protruding disc by intervertebral foramenoscopy, or decompression of the plate and implantation of bone fusion surgery. Therefore, cervical 2-3-4-5-6 herniated discs can be treated conservatively or surgically depending on the degree of the lesion, and should not be treated blindly with medication.
