The methods of treating lumbar disc herniation mainly include physical therapy, drug therapy (ibuprofen, celecoxib) and surgery. 1. Physical therapy: extracorporeal shock wave therapy can be taken, which can effectively reduce the patient’s low back pain and improve their functional status. Traction therapy can also be chosen to increase the width of the intervertebral space, reduce the internal pressure of the intervertebral disc, make the herniated part of the intervertebral disc retracted, and reduce the irritation and compression of the nerve root. 2. Drug therapy: non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) have anti-inflammatory and pain-relieving functions. Commonly used drugs are ibuprofen, celecoxib and so on. You can also choose dehydration agent, such as mannitol, used in the acute stage of lumbar disc herniation patients, because the lumbar nerve root inflammatory reaction, edema is obvious, and cause severe pain, the use of dehydration agent can reduce pain. 3. Surgery:There are mainly open surgery and minimally invasive surgery. Open surgery can be performed through an incision in the lumbar back, with decompression of the vertebral plate and discectomy. Minimally invasive surgery can be performed through the intervertebral foramenoscope, disc removal, or endoscopic removal of lumbar intervertebral discs. You should go to the hospital in time for treatment of lumbar disc herniation under the guidance of your doctor.
