For patients with lumbar herniation, it is not recommended to work or live in a squatting position for a long time, either in the acute phase or in remission. This is because taking a squatting position may aggravate the herniated lumbar disc or make the symptoms of the herniated disc, which have been relieved, become more serious again. For such patients, work in a sitting or standing position whenever possible. Wearing a lumbar belt during the acute phase can reduce the symptoms of a herniated lumbar disc. In the remission period, you should try to strengthen the exercise of the lumbar back muscles and avoid bending over to carry weight, squatting, especially for a long time, or taking the form of kneeling or lying down while doing housework, which may aggravate the symptoms of lumbar herniation.
