How to get relief from lumbar disc compression on the sciatic nerve

When the lumbar intervertebral disc compresses the sciatic nerve and causes pain, it can be relieved by medication, physical therapy and surgery. 1. Medication: painkillers such as celecoxib and ibuprofen can be taken under the guidance of a doctor to relieve pain, or muscle relaxants such as epirubicin can be taken, and creams such as flurbiprofen gel can also be applied to relieve localized pain. 2. Physical therapy: under the guidance of the therapist, infrared radiation, microwave, ultrasound, etc. can be used to relieve pain. In addition, physical therapy such as lumbar traction can also be performed to relieve the symptoms of pain. You can wear a lumbar belt while standing or sitting to increase lumbar stability and reduce the pain caused by lumbar spine loading. 3. Surgery: If the effect of the above conservative treatments is poor, then you need to consult a doctor in time to take surgical treatment, i.e., to fully release and decompression of the compressed nerves, to treat sciatica fundamentally. It is recommended that the patient should consult the doctor in time and follow the doctor’s instructions, do not blindly use medication.
