To understand the function of the liver as the “main tendon”, we can analyze the pathology of the herniated disc. Nowadays, this disease is becoming more and more common, and there is a popular saying that “the political performance is not outstanding, the performance is not outstanding, and all of them are herniated discs”. You may not believe this, but you can see this kind of people when you walk on the road, and it is very easy to recognize them. You see some people walking, suddenly do not walk, stand there coughing, and then just find something to hold, clench your teeth and body a good, in fact, this is the lumbar disc herniation, bone deviation from the normal position. In Chinese medicine theory, the waist is the house of the kidneys, lumbar disc herniation is like a leaky house of the kidneys, tired, in fact, it is a kidney deficiency, blood supply is insufficient, liver blood less, lumbar disc herniation is “blood does not nourish the tendons”. Human lumbar vertebrae on both sides of the tendons, that is, the tendons loose, because the lumbar disc on the lumbar vertebrae have support, connection and cushioning role, people’s physical activities are involved in it, its tendons loose no power, people sneeze a little bit of force tendons out. This is not a disease, but a deficiency of the liver and kidneys, resulting in the blood does not feed the tendons. Many people go to the hospital for treatment, and now the hospital is to do traction. What is traction? It is pulling, tugging, your tendons are already loose, so you can imagine what the consequences will be. Now many patients do not dare to take the bus, for fear that the bus suddenly brake, because the hand pulling the ring, for fear that a pull will lead to herniated disc. Maybe many people into a habit, they will pull the position to the right, you want the bone so repeatedly out and in, out and in for a period of time, then start to have to do surgery. I once saw a horrible advertisement about replacing a herniated disc with a stainless steel plate, with the tagline “never wears out”! The advertising company probably wanted to emphasize the quality of the product, but had no medical knowledge. If you think about it, if you replace the stainless steel plate, the quality of steel is indeed never wear and tear, but the steel plate above and below the two human bones, can be harder than the steel plate? As long as the root cause of the disease is not removed, this big tendon is still loose, if the bone will continue to wear, if the upper and lower two pieces are worn out how to do? Should we keep replacing them? Replacement of the whole back are not all steel plate, become a robot, flying through the checkpoints on the airplane, you will ring the alarm, all think you are carrying weapons. Some people believe in modern technology and still want to have the surgery. Before having the surgery, the doctor will also tell you that the success rate of the surgery is only 50%, and if the surgery is not successful, there is a possibility of paraplegia of the lower limbs. Before people undergo any surgery, they have to consider the evolution at a later stage, which is all a chain of cause and effect. All such surgeries are practically unnecessary. In the old Chinese medicine in the past, when they encountered such patients, they would tell the patients to go home and take a door board and lie down for a few days to recuperate, so that the qi and blood would slow down, the bones would return to their physiological curves, the tendons would be strong, and the protruding bones would reset by themselves. Herniated lumbar disc is a loss of qi and blood, this symptom is a reminder that you should go to regulate. Sometimes it is caused by prolonged sitting and working environment, which can be prevented and adjusted.
