Lumbar disc herniation

After treatment and rest, patients with lumbar disc herniation can be relieved or cured, but the recurrence rate of the disease is quite high, many patients are reluctant, but often become “repeat customers” who “visit” the doctor. The reasons for the high relapse rate are as follows: 1, lumbar disc herniation after treatment, although the symptoms basically disappeared, but many patients nucleus pulposus is not completely back, only the degree of pressure on the nerve root is relieved, or the adhesion with the nerve root is released. 2, lumbar disc herniation patients have been stabilized or healed, but in a short period of time, once exertion or sprain lumbar can make the nucleus pulposus protrude again, resulting in the recurrence of the disease. 3, in the cold, wet season did not pay attention to keep warm, wind, cold and damp invasion of human body parts, coupled with strain is likely to induce the recurrence of the disease. 4, although the nucleus pulposus of the segment has been removed in postoperative patients, the spinal stability of the upper and lower segments of the segment is poor after surgery, so the discs in the upper and lower segments of the operated segment are prone to prolapse, leading to the recurrence of lumbar disc herniation. For lumbar disc herniation, in addition to actively taking various treatments, the most important measure is prevention. So, how can we prevent the recurrence of lumbar disc herniation? People need various different life postures in their daily life, study and work, and develop their own habits, the correctness of which has an important impact on the human body. Therefore, we are required to pay attention to the rationality of our usual standing posture, sitting posture, labor posture, and sleeping posture, etc., correct bad posture and habits, strengthen exercise, enhance physical fitness, and especially strengthen the functional exercise of the lumbar and back muscles. Therefore, proper exercise can improve muscle blood circulation, promote metabolism, enhance muscle responsiveness and strength, loosen soft tissue adhesions, correct the imbalance between the intrinsic and extrinsic balance of the spine, and improve the stability, flexibility and durability of the lumbar spine, thus playing a good therapeutic and preventive role.
