Garlic does not treat lumbar herniation. 1. Lumbar disc herniation is due to degenerative changes in the lumbar intervertebral discs, under the action of external forces or long-term strain, and ultimately rupture of the annulus fibrosus, the nucleus pulposus is squeezed, resulting in the nucleus pulposus protruding, compression or irritation of the nerve root, manifesting the lumbar pain and pain in the lower limbs of the disease. Patients with lumbar protrusion should avoid prolonged standing and sitting, and in the acute stage, physical therapy such as traction, heat, massage, etc., together with non-steroidal anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs (e.g., ibuprofen, celecoxib, etc.), and neurological symptoms, can be orally taken to alleviate the symptoms of nutritive nerve drugs (e.g., methylcobalamin, vitamin B, etc.). If conservative treatment is ineffective and the symptoms are severe, seriously affecting the quality of life, surgery can also be used. 2. Garlic is a common ingredient and does not have therapeutic effect. Using garlic to treat lumbar disc herniation is also ineffective. Patients with lumbar herniation should seek medical treatment in a timely manner in regular hospitals and follow the doctor’s instructions, do not blindly use medication.
