Isn’t it normal to still have pain three or four days after surgery? A cut on the hand, if not treated in time, may exist abnormally within a week, not to mention the surgery! Clinically, there are indeed many lumbar protrusion patients who still have symptoms such as back pain and numbness 2,3 months after surgery. This is also the reason why we often say, don’t have surgery if you can be conservative, as long as the regular doctor will first recommend conservative treatment if the patient’s condition permits it, and surgical treatment will only be performed in the case of more serious conditions or poor prognosis. Why do many patients with lumbar protrusion still have symptoms after surgery? The above hints us an important information, as long as the patient is treated in a regular hospital, then its condition is absolutely not optimistic, so it will take surgical treatment, for these patients with severe conditions, surgery is by no means foolproof, the nucleus pulposus removal surgery should not be unfamiliar to you, the proportion of this type of surgery after the complete disappearance of the symptoms of only 60% of the rest of the 40% of the patients are still present in varying degrees of symptoms, a situation we call “the” symptoms, the “symptoms”, the “symptoms”. The remaining 40% of patients still have symptoms of varying degrees, a situation we call “postoperative residual syndrome”. 1, preoperative diagnosis is not comprehensive The premise of any treatment is to understand the formation and etiology of the disease, otherwise it can only be ineffective treatment, if the doctor’s diagnosis of the patient’s condition or foci of the probe error, then blind surgery, naturally, will result in surgical treatment, but in fact, this may be small, the vast majority of patients should be carried out in the surgery in the tertiary hospitals, and the major hospitals have a perfect preoperative diagnosis and evaluation, hospitalization period, and the majority of patients have a good understanding of the disease. The vast majority of patients should be operated in tertiary hospitals, and major hospitals will have a perfect pre-operative diagnosis and assessment, hospitalization will have doctors regularly checking the room, and the doctor who is the main surgeon is an experienced expert, so this possibility exists, but the chances of occurrence are small. 2, the patient’s long history of disease, nerve function damage lumbar protrusion patients, in addition to lumbar pain, there are lower limb numbness, incontinence, etc., which is due to nerve compression, if the disease lasts a long time, the nerve function will be impaired, and then the patient’s medulla oblongata even if the removal of the nerve function can not be recovered immediately, this recovery time is very slow, we often use the “one day, one night, one millimeter”. The recovery time is very slow, and we often use the phrase “a millimeter a day and a night” to describe it. Therefore, the recovery time of the vast majority of patients is calculated in months, not to mention three or four days. 3, poor long-term efficacy caused by postoperative residuals Some patients are not in good physical condition, and may have nerve adhesion, scar formation, and vertebral instability after surgery, which on the one hand, will cause the nerve to be continuously stimulated, numbness, pain, and other symptoms, and on the other hand, will be due to partial removal of intervertebral discs, vertebral interspace structure of the vacancy collapsed, making the vertebral loosening and instability, which will result in painful symptoms. 4, the second postoperative herniation Surgical resection of the nucleus pulposus is not complete, coupled with the fact that some patients do not spend enough time in bed after surgery, in the absence of a full recovery, unauthorized out-of-bed activities, or labor, the second herniation occurs, so that there will be pain symptoms, and the repetitions can not be recovered. Three or four days is still too short a time, you should meditate and recuperate, and then go to the hospital for follow-up! Surgery is not everything, nor is it the best, but it is by no means as bad as in the mouths of some people. Reasonable analysis is fine, but malicious rumor mongering is too much, and its heart can be put to death.
