How to relieve the pain of lumbar spine osteophytes?

Lumbar spine osteophytes are a result, and we need to clarify what is causing the osteophytes in the lumbar spine, whether there is osteoporosis, degeneration or herniation of the lumbar intervertebral discs. If it is osteoporosis that causes lumbar pain, how can it be relieved? First of all, the treatment of osteoporosis is very crucial, and the treatment of calcium supplementation and bone strengthening is essential, and then a little oral anti-inflammatory and analgesic medicine with a little physiotherapy is appropriate, and some patients can get obvious relief. But if the symptoms are still not controlled, it may be necessary to go to the hospital for further clear examination and further treatment. In case of small joint disorder or lumbar muscle strain caused by lumbar disc herniation, in this case, besides keeping good rest, oral anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, such as loxoprofen or fenbid, can also be relieved, and some massage and physiotherapy can also be done to get partial relief. However, if the pain is more severe, especially if the herniated disc is compressing the nerve, resulting in edematous pain radiating to the leg. In this case, the nerve may also need to be treated with anti-inflammatory and anti-swelling treatment. After the dehydration and anti-inflammatory treatment, the edema of the nerve will be eliminated and the pain may be significantly improved. If these relatively conservative treatments still do not solve the pain problem, further interventions or even minimally invasive surgical treatment may be required.
