Jumping rope is not recommended for lumbar disc herniation; jumping rope may aggravate the herniation and make symptoms worse. Lumbar disc herniation is caused by the herniated nucleus pulposus in the intervertebral disc pressing back against the spinal nerve root. The intervertebral disc exists as an annular piece of fibrous tissue between two vertebrae. After chronic strain, acute injury, etc., the nucleus pulposus in the intervertebral disc breaks through the annulus fibrosus and protrudes into the spinal canal, compressing the spinal nerve root and producing symptoms. In the process of jumping rope, the up and down acceleration and deceleration movements of jumping and landing make the intervertebral discs bear unnecessary loads, and the intervertebral discs are shocked and extruded, which aggravate the situation of protrusion of the nucleus pulposus that has already protruded into the vertebral canal, and the situation of extrusion of the spinal nerve roots is even more serious. Therefore, jumping rope will aggravate lumbar disc herniation, bringing unnecessary risks to patients.
