What’s wrong with a herniated disk that hurts more and more when you lie down?

Patients with lumbar disc herniation are often asked to lie still and flat in the clinic, however, it is actually observed in the clinic that there is not much difference between lying still and flat and normal life as well as walking upright. As lying down for a long time will also cause compression and irritation of the lumbar muscles on the nerves, it will also lead to more and more pain. Therefore, after lying down for a long time, the patient can change the posture to the extent that the posture is comfortable and painless, and there is no absolute requirement of lying down flat. At the same time, patients with lumbar disc herniation also need treatment, which can be carried out through a variety of methods such as acupuncture and oral Chinese medicine.
