Herniated lumbar disc cannot be cured on its own, and needs to be treated according to the doctor’s prescription. The right way to promote the recovery of herniated lumbar disc includes adherence to medication, functional exercise and surgical treatment. 1. Adherence to medication: For those who need to use medication after diagnosis, medication should be administered in strict accordance with the doctor’s instructions, including non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs such as ibuprofen, nutritive nerve drugs such as methylcobalamin, and so on. 2. Functional exercise: self-exercise such as flying swallows, lying on the bed in the prone position, and lifting up the limbs and head can gradually alleviate the discomfort brought by lumbar disc herniation, while combining with physiotherapy such as acupressure and electrotherapy, but need to use medication according to the doctor’s prescription. 3. Surgery: If the effect of conservative treatment is not good or the degree of herniation is more serious, the patient needs to combine with the doctor’s recommendation to undergo surgery in a timely manner, and with the later rehabilitation, the patient can generally get a good recovery. Related patients are recommended to seek timely medical treatment, and targeted treatment.
