What is the treatment for incontinence caused by a herniated disc that has not recovered from surgery?

Incontinence caused by lumbar discs is a complication of nerve damage. If it does not return to normal after surgery, hyperbaric oxygen therapy or neurotrophic medication can be considered to help restore the nerves. 1. Hyperbaric Oxygen Therapy: As herniated lumbar disc may cause compression and damage to the herniated nerves, incontinence and other symptoms are a common complication. Hyperbaric oxygen therapy can improve the blood oxygen saturation and oxygen content in the capillaries around the lumbar disc, thus improving the symptoms of damage to the peripheral nerves and tissues, and helping to alleviate the phenomenon of urinary and fecal incontinence. 2. Nutritional nerve medication: For nerve damage caused by lumbar disc, taking nutritional nerve medication can effectively promote the recovery of damaged nerves and help restore the health of the central nervous system. When choosing drugs, you can choose B vitamins, methylcobalamin, lipoic acid and other drugs for neuroprotection, but you need to follow the doctor’s instructions for use. For nerve damage or incontinence caused by lumbar disc herniation, unauthorized physical therapy or unauthorized medication is not recommended, and medication should be used cautiously under the guidance of a doctor, and appropriate treatment options should be chosen for active treatment.
