Whether lumbar disc herniation can be treated conservatively depends on the severity of the patient’s disease. Generally speaking, minor lumbar disc herniation can be treated conservatively with rest, physical therapy and medication, while serious lumbar disc herniation is recommended to undergo surgery when conservative treatment is ineffective. 1. Minor lumbar disc herniation: Generally speaking, most patients with minor lumbar disc herniation can be relieved by bed rest, localized hot compresses and other physical therapy, as well as by taking anti-inflammatory and painkilling medications such as celecoxib and diclofenac sodium delayed-release capsules, and so on, as conservative treatments. 2. Severe lumbar disc herniation: For severe lumbar disc herniation, the patient’s symptoms are more serious, and when conservative treatment is ineffective, surgery can be used. Patients with lumbar disc herniation are advised to consult hospitals, complete relevant examinations, clarify the degree of compression, and decide on further treatments according to the compression situation and the patient’s symptoms.
