Can I be cured for life after surgery for a herniated lumbar spinal disc?

  Patients: body aches and pains, stiffness in the back, legs and neck, walking affected by the rain, bed-ridden, can not stop taking medication to reduce the symptoms, recurring, long-term medication, can only reduce the pain. Which is better, medication or surgery? Is there any risk of surgery, will there be sequelae? Can the patient get married.  Answer: Very simple, no.  1, because the lumbar disc herniation is only one of the causes of back and leg pain, the treatment of the herniated disc does not necessarily solve other causes of pain and other symptoms.  2, most people have 6 lumbar intervertebral discs, and there are three segments of L3/4, L4/5, and L5/S1 that protrude well. The treatment of a diseased disc does not prevent the possibility of future lesions in other discs.  3, but also in conjunction with the analysis of specific surgical methods. In general, surgery does not remove the entire disc, which is unnecessary and increases the risk of surgery.  As a result, there is a risk that the remaining disc tissue may later protrude into the disc and cause symptoms. This is very unlikely, but it does happen. In addition, tissue adhesions within the incision can occur as a result of the peeling of tissue during surgery, which may also cause some symptoms. These are all possible surgical complications. Therefore, there is no ultimate treatment that can be expected to “get to the root” of the problem. The most important thing is to find the most appropriate and safe and economical treatment plan according to the specific condition and the individual’s quality of life requirements.
