With the development of medical imaging and the popularization of medical knowledge, the disease of lumbar disc herniation is becoming more and more recognized and familiar, and even patients can know a lot of knowledge related to the disease. However, because the clinical manifestations of lumbar disc herniation vary, the treatment methods are numerous, and it is easy to have recurrent attacks, there are still some misconceptions in the treatment and understanding of the disease, and these misconceptions may lead to mistakes in the principle of patient treatment, delay, or even aggravate the disease, and increase the psychological and economic burden of patients. One of the misconceptions: back and leg pain is not considered a disease. According to statistics, about 95% of people have experienced low back pain in their lifetime. The diseases that cause low back pain can involve almost all systems of the body. Some of the primary diseases of low back and leg pain disappear when they are cured, and some of them are not cured by themselves. Some patients therefore believe that low back pain is not a disease. In fact, low back and leg pain caused by lumbar disc herniation is not only considered a disease, but also must be given great attention. Because this disease can not only cause back and leg pain, but also cause lower limbs numbness, cold, weakness, and even paralysis and urinary disorders, seriously affecting the quality of life. Myth No. 2: Low back and leg pain can’t be cured. Lumbar disc herniation is characterized by easy recurrence, especially for those with neurological dysfunction, and a long repair process. Therefore, some patients and even some non-professional doctors think that lumbar disc herniation is not curable. In fact, the overall effect of lumbar disc herniation treatment is very good, with an excellent rate of about 95%. The so-called cure is not good for two reasons: first, improper choice of method; second, no adherence to treatment. Some patients go to where they hear of new treatments, but they can’t stick to them anywhere, and end up running a lot of places with unsatisfactory results. Misconception No. 3: superstition in a particular method. There are two types of treatment for lumbar disc herniation, surgical and non-surgical. The latter has traction, massage, internal and external medication, percutaneous cut and suck, collagenase lysis, etc. It should be said that which method can also cure some patients, but which method can not cure all patients, and even in some cases, certain therapies are contraindicated. Therefore, the correct attitude is to choose the specific treatment method suitable for each patient according to clinical symptoms, signs, disease duration, and imaging examination, and not to exaggerate or superstitiously believe in a certain treatment, nor to subjectively resist a certain treatment. Myth No. 4: Misconceptions about surgery. Most patients with lumbar disc herniation can be relieved or cured by non-surgical treatment, but there are still some patients who need surgical treatment. On the subject of surgery, there are two opposite misconceptions: one is blind surgery; the other is refusal of surgery. The former believes that only surgery can eradicate lumbar disc herniation, and thus does not choose to operate as long as it is a lumbar disc herniation and as long as the patient agrees. This adds to the unnecessary economic burden of the patient on the one hand, and increases the chance of “lumbar spine surgery failure syndrome” on the other. In fact, the indications for surgery for lumbar disc herniation are very strict, and surgery is not the first choice for the treatment of lumbar disc herniation. The latter amplifies the negative effects of surgery, such as nerve damage, and believes that surgery must not be done, but only conservative treatment. It should be said that some patients with surgical indications can have their main symptoms relieved after conservative treatment, but there are always some symptoms left behind that are difficult to improve, while most patients with surgical indications cannot be replaced by any conservative therapy and must receive surgical treatment, and the sooner the better, otherwise, the loss of neurological function may become permanent, therefore, surgery and conservative issues should be treated discriminately, and neither surgery should be easily, nor It should not be conservative.
