Many elderly patients mostly seek treatment for lumbar disc herniation through the introduction of relatives and friends, while young people will learn more about countermeasures through the Internet, not knowing that this often hides many misconceptions and causes many misunderstandings. One of the most common misconceptions is to equate lumbar pain with lumbar herniation. In fact, although low back pain is the first symptom that most patients with lumbar synostosis experience, it is not the only symptom. About 10% of patients will only have leg pain without lumbar pain, while others may have sciatica, neck discomfort, or lower abdominal discomfort of varying degrees. Those patients who only have leg pain without low back pain are most likely to be misdiagnosed, and leg pain is only treated as leg pain, which often delays the correct treatment. On the contrary, there are some patients with low back pain who think they have lumbar synostosis and seek medical help everywhere, and even undergo surgery for this reason, but in fact it is only the first stage of lumbar synostosis – some bulging of the intervertebral discs, but not to the extent of lumbar synostosis at all, which is obviously over-treatment. There are also individual patients who do not take lumbar pain seriously, thinking that lumbar pain is definitely lumbar synostosis, and that it is normal to look bad anyway, so they do not receive treatment in time, and eventually find out that it is a spinal tumor that is at fault. The actual spinal tumor was found to be the cause of the problem. Often, when a patient enters the clinic, they say, “Doctor, I have a lumbar disc herniation, how can I treat it?” But after careful questioning the patient only has symptoms of lumbar pain, not the typical symptoms of lumbar disc herniation, the final diagnosis is just other diseases such as muscle strain in the low back. Therefore, patients with low back pain must go to a regular hospital and never self-diagnose based on their feelings.
