Patients with herniated lumbar discs can engage in cycling activities, but they should pay attention to the length of time. Because riding is not a weight-bearing activity, proper riding can exercise the strength of the lower limb muscles and coordinate the muscle strength of the lower limbs. But it is generally not recommended to ride for too long, because too long time riding is actually the same reason as sitting for a long time, will cause strain on the lumbar muscles and increase the load on the intervertebral disc. It is generally recommended that patients with herniated lumbar discs do non-weight bearing sports, such as swimming. Swimming can be a good exercise for the strength of the lumbar muscles and can strengthen the stability of the spine, thus alleviating the degree of lumbar disc herniation. In addition patients can also perform the flying swallow movement and five-point support method to relieve the symptoms of lumbar disc herniation.
