The occurrence and development of lumbar disc herniation are closely related to the weight bearing of the body and the movement of the joints. After the occurrence of lumbar disc herniation, the weight bearing and the movement of the joints can aggravate the protrusion of the nucleus pulposus and aggravate the inflammation and edema of the nerve roots. Therefore, in this case, bed rest can avoid the pressure of weight on the lumbar intervertebral disc, and to a large extent, release the tension formed by muscle spasm on the extrusion of the herniated disc, and the herniated nucleus pulposus will be dehydrated and reduced in size, which will reduce the pressure on the nerve root and facilitate the absorption of water. Therefore, bed rest can maximize the avoidance of lumbar spine activities and weight bearing, so that the protruding disc tends to return, edema tends to absorb, symptoms are relieved, and facilitate the implementation of manipulation. For patients with lumbar disc herniation, resting on a hard bed is the most basic and necessary treatment method, regardless of the treatment method received, it is necessary to pay attention to resting on a hard bed. For patients with lumbar disc bulge, in the case of mild recurrence symptoms can be treated simply by resting on a rigid bed. The patient can lie on his back on the bed, under the waist pad a stacked square quilt, so that the torso is an arch, body relaxation, for 5 minutes, and then prone or supine rest, can effectively promote the intervertebral disc to return, displacement, to achieve the purpose of treatment. Patients with lumbar disc herniation should pay attention to the following matters during lying on a hard bed: 1. For patients with heavy symptoms, lying on a hard bed requires complete, continuous and adequate, the bed is preferably a hard bed, the mattress is thin, thick, soft and hard, the height of the bed should be slightly higher, it is best to make the patient just sit up, the thigh plane and the upper body is greater than 90 degrees of obtuse angle, which facilitates the patient to get out of bed. 2, the patient supine, the hip and knee joints should be maintained in a certain flexion position, to facilitate long-term tolerance. The lumbar area can be padded with stacked towel quilts, about 4-8 layers, to maintain or correct the physiological curvature of the lumbar spine. 3, bed rest period should try to get off the floor to urinate and defecate, in bed using a lying commode is likely to aggravate the condition, it is best to have someone else to assist when going to the toilet, in order to reduce the load on the lumbar intervertebral disc. Sitting potty or with support when defecating. 4, bed rest period should pay attention to appropriate exercise. Such as prone position chest, back stirrups, etc., the movement requires gentle, gentle and rhythmic, the amount of exercise gradually increased. 5, bed rest during the diet should pay attention to more fruits, vegetables, less high-fat, high protein and other high-calorie foods, to maintain the stool usually. 6.Patients can properly get out of bed after a few days of bed rest, and walk for a period of time daily as tolerated to make the muscle ligaments have a contraction and stretching process to promote blood circulation.
