How to treat leg pain after lumbar disc surgery?

After lumbar disc herniation, if it leads to nerve root compression, there is obvious radicular pain, radicular pain from the buttocks or buttocks connecting the legs, and the pain is significantly aggravated when the patient bends over and moves, sometimes accompanied by numbness on the outside of the calf. After the occurrence of nerve root compression, it is necessary to rest in bed more often, especially on a hard bed, to create conditions for the recovery of nerve root edema after the intervertebral disc compresses the nerve root. At the same time, a warm compress can be applied to the waist.

There are two types of correct and valid**.

1. Traditional Chinese medicine is conservative** and recommends the best "spinal pain elimination combination".

2. Minimally invasive and open surgery**, taken for severe patients.

There are two scenarios. The first type is that there is leg pain before surgery, and the leg pain is completely decompressed during the operation, and the leg pain is not completely relieved after the operation, which is a normal situation, even if the pressure is completely decompressed, the nerve recovery will take a long time, and there is nerve edema in the early postoperative period, and the pain may not be relieved or aggravated in the short term. Only continue to use medication to nourish the nerves**.

In the second case, there is leg pain before surgery, and the intraoperative decompression is not complete, and the pain is not relieved, in this case, it is necessary to re-examine the MRI to decompress, and if necessary, re-operate to decompress. The other is that there is only low back pain before surgery, and there is no leg pain, and it is relatively rare to need surgery. It may be caused by early nerve edema, or nerve damage may occur due to intraoperative decompression, and repeat MRI is required for further management.

Normal. Because I had a herniated disc in my lumbar and my lower leg hurt after minimally invasive surgery, I thought it was normal.

I think it's normal, usually after surgery, there will be calf pain, so there is no need to worry.

It's normal, because after the surgery, you have to make an incision, and this process will cause pain in your body.

It is normal, at this time you should pay attention to rest, do not overwork, and pay attention to keeping warm, so that it does not become serious.

Lumbar disc herniation can be treated with oral neurotrophic drugs to promote nerve recovery. If you have the conditions, you can do exercises for the lumbar spine, which is also conducive to recovery. If the above ** is passed, there is no significant relief from the symptoms of lumbar disc herniation compressing nerve roots.

And when the patient has restrictions on normal life and work, it is recommended after lumbar disc surgery: "Spinal Pain Elimination Combination" is conservative**.

Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation can cause leg pain, because the protruding tissue causes the microcirculation of the extrusion site to be obstructed, so that the blood supply of the nerve root of the lower limb of the department is blocked, and the lower limb nerve of the blocked blood supply section is to provoke hypoxia and the oxygen of the microvascular bed is more than enough and crushed, some pain-causing substances are released in this environment, forming the pain of the lower limb nerves, if not timely, this lumbar intervertebral disc herniation leg pain phenomenon will extend along the ankle joint, and it is also accompanied by weakness and numbness of the calf and foot, This leads to more serious consequences, so it is necessary to be timely. Anxin Medical wishes you a speedy **!

There can also be a compression of the nerve, do an MRI examination, targeted**. Thank you!!

Generally, it will not enter the recovery period until three to six months after surgery, and it is normal to have symptoms in the short term, it is recommended to do some exercises to help after surgery**, such as pelvic rotation exercises, and if the body can withstand it, you can also do slight resistance exercises.

Your symptoms are primary nerve damage, and it is impossible to fully recover from surgery, because surgery only decompresses and cannot restore nerves. Therefore, the recovery of the disease must be considered in many aspects, starting from the nerve, softening the scar is conducive to nerve regeneration and repair, nourishing the nerve to promote nerve regeneration and repair, and stimulating and activating nerve regeneration and repairing nerve as soon as possible**. Requests for help in providing information.

Under normal circumstances, if the lumbar disc herniation is not very serious, then we can also carry out it by means of correction, this method belongs to a kind of physical, although the effect is relatively slow, but it can fundamentally solve the problem of lumbar disc herniation, of course, this fundamental solution to the problem is to stabilize the condition rather than the diseaseIn the case of severe lumbar disc herniation, it will indeed lead to pain in a certain leg, which is likely to affect our work and life, if it is too serious, the best way is to carry out surgery**, in fact, the surgery of lumbar disc herniation is not as serious as we imagined, it is to use minimally invasive ** method to help us deal with the state of lumbar disc herniation, this method has the advantages of short course of treatment, quick effect, small trauma, little pain and so on. In addition, if we want to reasonably alleviate the condition in daily life, we need to pay attention to the following points:

1. Don't sit for long periods of time

Sitting for a long time is one of the most typical actions that lead to lumbar disc herniation, so it is recommended that you try not to sit for a long time in life, especially to maintain an abnormal sitting posture, so that the damage to our lumbar disc is very great, and patients with lumbar disc herniation should also pay attention to avoid this adverse effect in daily life.

2. Wear a waist brace

If the state is more serious, we must wear a waist brace when going out or activities, a waist brace is a very good tool to protect the waist, which can help us avoid waist damage or deterioration of the condition, but it should be noted that the quality of the waist brace is very important, and we must be rigorous when purchasing.

3. Massage traction

If the state of lumbar disc herniation causes us more pain, we can also carry out appropriate massage and traction methods to help us relieve the pain, although this method is derived from traditional Chinese medicine, but the effect is indeed better, although it is only a symptom but not a cure, but it can assist in recovery.

In addition to surgery, the best way is to carry out the ** of this drug, through the ** of the drug can slowly relieve the pain, and you can use the way of hot compress of traditional Chinese medicine to relieve it little by little, and the effect is still very good.

If you don't have surgery, you can do acupuncture or traction, but these can't be completely **, so you have to do some ** exercises. You can also use an abdominal band to protect the lumbar spine.

Coming out of acupuncture can also be relieved, but the probability is not great, I just come out, I can't work anyway, it hurts to prick the needle, or I will have surgery, and I can't get better for this disease.

In addition to surgery, we can also carry out correction by means of **, this **method belongs to a kind of physical**, although the effect is relatively slow, but it can fundamentally solve the problem of lumbar disc herniation.
