If the dural sac is compressed by a herniated disc, the following treatment measures need to be taken: 1. First of all, the patient’s clinical symptoms should be observed. Some patients tend to be heavier on imaging, but the clinical symptoms are very mild, and some are even completely asymptomatic. In such cases, no special interventions can be made, and the patient is only required to do functional exercises for the lumbar and back muscles, like yoga or Five Animal Play, Eight Duan Jin and other exercises. 2. If the patient’s clinical symptoms are more typical or heavy, conservative treatment is preferred. The patient needs to rest on a hard bed and use continuous lumbar traction. On top of this, the patient should be treated with anti-inflammatory, anti-swelling, pain-relieving, muscle spasm-relieving and nerve-nourishing drugs. In addition, acupuncture, massage, herbal fumigation, baking electricity, cupping and other physical therapy also have a very good auxiliary treatment effect. 3, if conventional conservative treatment is not effective, surgery may be required. The principle of surgery is to remove the protruding disc by directly exposing the compressed area to relieve the clinical symptoms mentioned above.
