    First: the self-** method.

    If the symptoms are not very severe, or the pain is occasional, then you only need to pay attention to rest in your daily life, and accompany some hot compresses, massage, acupuncture and physiotherapy, etc., so that you can recover quickly. If you want to increase the effect, then you can also do appropriate waist exercises on a daily basis, such as bending left and right, spinning, and bending forward and leaning back, etc., and doing several sets of these exercises every day can make the body stronger.

    If the problem is not very severe, surgery is not recommended for older people**. First of all, the body resistance of the elderly is relatively poor, so the risk of surgery is relatively large. If the back pain is not very severe, then some TCM massage and acupuncture can be a good way to relieve the pain.

    Second: Medications**.

    If the pain is indeed unbearable, then you can consult a professional doctor, and then choose the most suitable medicine to take under the guidance of the doctor. Some drugs can play a role in local pain point closure after entering our body, which can temporarily relieve the pain of the body, which is very effective for the elderly.

    It is best not to use the drug often and casually, and it must be used again when the condition is more serious to avoid other irresistible damage to our body. At the same time, you must also follow the doctor's instructions and do not use drugs indiscriminately. If the back pain is unbearable, then we still recommend that it is best to stay in bed and do not mention some heavy objects to avoid secondary damage to the lower back.

    Third: Surgery**.

    If the elderly not only have backache, but even have symptoms of nerve compression, then surgery is necessary for our health** at this time, which is the best choice. There are many common surgical options, such as removing one side of the vertebral plate, or removing the nucleus pulposus tissue of the intervertebral disc, which can be a good way to relieve back pain. With the continuous improvement of science and technology, these surgeries are becoming more and more mature, which greatly reduces the harm they bring.
