How to keep a herniated lumbar disc from recurring

Herniated lumbar intervertebral discs are mainly prevented from recurrence by avoiding bending and weight bearing and increasing the strength of the muscles of the lumbar back, etc. Surgery can be used to avoid recurrence for patients with recurrent episodes. 1. Prevention of recurrence: this is the main method to prevent lumbar disc herniation from recurring, which mainly includes reducing the amount of lumbar activities during the acute period, forbidding strenuous activities, avoiding stooping and weight-bearing, and wearing medication when necessary, and strengthening the muscle strength of the lumbar back during the recovery period by adopting the exercise methods of Xiaoyanfei and five-point support, which can effectively prevent lumbar disc herniation. 2. Surgery: For patients with recurrent lumbar disc herniation, surgery is recommended. For patients who have undergone lumbar disc herniation removal surgery alone, there is still a possibility of recurrence after the surgery, but for patients who have undergone lumbar disc herniation removal surgery plus intervertebral fusion, there is generally no recurrence. Herniated lumbar discs are prone to recurrence, and after recurrence, it is recommended that the patient should consult the hospital in time, and avoid stooping and weight-bearing and aggravating the strength of the muscles of the lower back in order to prevent the recurrence of the disease.
