Degenerative lumbar disc herniation is due to the degeneration of all human organs in the elderly as they grow older, and the lumbar spine is no exception. As a person ages, lumbar degeneration can manifest as lumbar spine osteophytes, disc degeneration or herniation, and ligamentous laxity. At this point, images of herniated lumbar discs can be seen when CT and MRI are taken. If there is clinical back pain, as well as numbness, weakness, and pain in the lower limbs, or if there is a disorder of urination and defecation, then the diagnosis of lumbar disc herniation should be made and active treatment should be carried out. In the early stage, proper rest, lumbar traction, oral nerve-nourishing and pain-relieving drugs can be administered. If the effect of conservative treatment is not good, or if the condition continues to worsen and no relief is seen after any treatment, surgery should be considered.
