There is no optimal treatment for bulging discs. Herniated discs need to be treated in conjunction with the patient’s condition, and can be treated with painkillers and other medications, physical therapy, surgery, and other modalities. 1. Medication: If there is severe pain, diclofenac sodium and other painkillers can be used for symptomatic treatment of herniated disc; if there are numbness in both lower limbs, methylcobalamin and other nutritive nerve medications can be used. Diclofenac sodium may cause side effects such as dizziness and headache; methylcobalamin may cause gastrointestinal discomfort. 2. Physiotherapy: If the herniated disc is a mild disease, it can be supplemented with physiotherapy, such as applying hot towels or Chinese herbs to the lumbar region to promote blood circulation; relaxing the muscles and relieving spasms through acupuncture; and adopting massage and acupressure to promote blood circulation and repair. 3. Surgery: If medication and physical therapy are ineffective and symptoms are severe, surgical treatment may be necessary. Currently, surgical methods for herniated discs include intervertebral foraminoscopic nucleus pulposus removal, radiofrequency ablation surgery, and open localized nucleus pulposus removal, etc., which need to be selected in conjunction with the patient’s condition. Patients with herniated discs are advised to visit regular hospitals and be judged by professional doctors to choose the appropriate treatment. The above drugs need to be used under the guidance of a doctor, avoid self-medication.
