If the back and leg pain is caused by the acute stage of lumbar disc herniation, a course of treatment of about 1 month is required. If the effect is not good after 1-3 months of regular treatment, other treatment methods, such as minimally invasive surgery and open surgery, will be considered. Patients need to quit smoking and drinking before surgery, pay attention to rest, strengthen nutritional supplements and cooperate with the doctor for preoperative examination. Post-operative rest also has a great impact on the patient’s recovery, usually requiring the patient to stay in bed for at least 1 week.
