Lumbar disc herniation, also commonly referred to as simply: lumbar prolapse. It has a high incidence. It tends to develop in people who have a prolonged bending posture. Such as: long-term Internet users, office workers, porters, drivers, people who often play mahjong, people who watch TV for a long time, sedentary and improper posture of students, etc., are the high incidence of the disease. There are some misconceptions about the disease: 1, lumbar pain is lumbar prolapse: the main symptoms of lumbar disc herniation are lumbar pain, lower limb pain, or lumbar pain with lower limb pain. The cause of low back pain is due to induction pain caused by the herniated disc stimulating the sinus spinal nerve or discogenic low back pain caused by local inflammatory stimulation of the herniated disc. Low back pain alone accounts for a small percentage of herniated discs. Most herniated discs manifest as lower extremity pain, or low back pain accompanied by lower extremity pain. Low back pain after bending over for a long time or after labor is likely to be caused by lumbar muscle strain or small joint disorder, and cannot be attributed to lumbar prolapse. 2, the CT report sheet written lumbar disc protrusion is lumbar prolapse: The lumbar disc protrusion on the examination report is only a radiological diagnosis, which only indicates that the lumbar intervertebral disc has degenerative lesions, not the real clinical diagnosis: lumbar disc protrusion. Although there is only one difference in the word “disease”, the difference is very big. Many people do not have typical symptoms, just lumbar discomfort or physical examination unintentionally found, think they have lumbar prolapse, in fact, it is likely to be a subhealth state, not really a disease, do not need special treatment. As long as you pay attention to your posture in your daily life and work, less bending and sedentary. The real lumbar disc herniation requires a period of time of systematic formal treatment. 3, long-term wear lumbar support can prevent and treat lumbar prolapse: lumbar support can temporarily stabilize the lumbar spine, correct poor sitting posture, can short-term relief of lumbar pain symptoms. But lumbar support is a double-edged sword, wearing too long can cause lumbar muscle atrophy, resulting in lumbar instability aggravated, and then aggravate the lumbar degenerative disease and lumbar disc protrusion, a long time is more harm than good. So the lumbar brace is worn for a short time, one to two weeks is appropriate, generally not more than a month, not to wear to prevent lumbar prolapse. 4, minimally invasive surgery is the best way to treat lumbar prolapse: At present, the use of minimally invasive technologies such as intervertebral discoscopy and intervertebral foraminoscopy has indeed brought good news to some patients with lumbar prolapse, but minimally invasive surgery is not a panacea and is not applicable to all patients with lumbar prolapse. Minimally invasive surgery has strict indications and is only indicated for young, single-segment, inclusive disc herniations that are not associated with spinal stenosis, ligamentous sclerosis and ossification, and severe degeneration. Many cases of lumbar prolapse cannot be resolved by minimally invasive surgery, and there is a high recurrence rate with minimally invasive surgery, so minimally invasive surgery cannot replace traditional surgery.
