We all know that rumors are harmful, but we really need professional guidance to distinguish rumors from facts: there are various kinds of internet “rumors” about lumbar disc herniation, and we need to seriously clarify the facts and tell the truth; so that patients will take the wrong path and not spend money! When patients see me, they say: I have a herniated lumbar disc because my back always hurts! Many people suspect that they have a lumbar disc herniation when they feel back pain or leg pain, but it is not the case that lumbar pain is a lumbar disc herniation. Young people have low back pain after strenuous activity or bending over to move things, most of which is caused by damage to the muscle conduction strain. There are also many older people who often feel lumbar pain, but rubbing and hammering will be more comfortable, which may be caused by aseptic inflammation of lumbar muscle strain or myofasciitis, and not lumbar disc herniation. The first symptom of a herniated lumbar disc is often lumbago, followed by unilateral or bilateral hip pain, tightness, and other uncomfortable sensations, which are more pronounced when bending over or bearing weight, and will be alleviated after bed rest. Further development, the protruding lumbar intervertebral disc presses on the nerve, the patient will feel tightness, pain and numbness in the back of the thigh, and some patients have leg pain to a greater extent than the lumbar pain. Once the above situation occurs, you should be alert, it is likely to have a lumbar disc protrusion. There are often patients who come to the doctor only after the pain is unbearable, he thinks: back and leg pain is not a big problem, no need to go to the hospital to see! No disease can be said to be not a big problem, and any disease that is serious is catastrophic. There are many diseases that cause lumbar and leg pain, and one should carefully find out whether or not one has a lumbar disc herniation. In the case of lumbar disc herniation, if it is left unattended and develops severely, the lighter the pain suffers, the heavier the irreversible damage to the nerves, so the disease should be taken seriously. Herniated lumbar discs that are handled on their own without permission: a herniated lumbar disc is a bone that is misaligned and can be pressed back. Brother you misunderstood! The lumbar disc herniation is not a bone dislocation, it is a rupture of the fibrous ring nucleus pulposus protruding to the rear to compress the nerve roots, which has nothing to do with the bone dislocation. The actual lumbar bones are misaligned and cannot be pressed back!
