    First of all, it is impossible for lumbar disc herniation to be improved by sitting cross-legged, and this should be clear. The indirect reason behind the lumbar protrusion is that the pelvic position is not correct (forward or backward, or left and right), or the forward bending of the single leg shows that the posterior chain flexibility of the lower limbs of the body is very poor, or the angle of external rotation of the hip joint is limited, then no matter what cross-sitting, it is harmful to you.

    Lumbar intervertebral disc herniation is caused by inappropriate force in the lumbar region, which damages the fibrous annulus of the intervertebral disc, causing the nucleus pulposus in it to protrude from the damaged place to the spinal cord cavity, compressing the nerve and causing pain and other symptoms. For patients with a herniated lumbar disc, the time spent sitting should be minimized, and meditation is not recommended. You should do more stretching exercises around your waist and put a small pillow under your waist when you sleep.

    Traditional Chinese medicine physiotherapy, traction, massage, baking electricity and other methods can be adopted to promote the reduction of intervertebral discs.

    Cross-sitting places a greater load on the lumbar disc than normal sitting, especially in the 5-sacral-1 position. At the same time, due to the lack of support for the cross-legged back, it is not easy to maintain the natural curvature of the spine, and the load on the lower back muscles is also large. Therefore, try not to sit cross-legged, and if you can't avoid it, choose to sit for about 20 minutes before getting up and moving.

    The legs are crossed to slow down blood circulation in the lower body and increase blood circulation in the upper body, especially in the chest area. This position is conducive to sitting upright, allowing the respiratory system to be unobstructed, which is extremely conducive to inducing smooth breathing. The important point is:

    Although blood flow to the lower body is reduced, there is no congestion unlike sitting in a chair.

    The effect on the lumbar spine when sitting cross-legged is not significantly different from the effect on the lumbar spine when sitting in a normal position, and the pelvis is mainly weight-bearing when sitting, and the lumbar spine is also loaded accordingly. Long-term sitting is not good for the lumbar spine, and it is easy to cause lumbar spine injury and strain, resulting in degeneration and other changes, which is not conducive to lumbar spine health care.

    Compared with normal sitting, cross-legged sitting only carries the weight of the sitting bones and legs, which is not significantly different from the lumbar spine, but it still has an impact on the hip joint and can cause damage to the hip joint.

    Therefore, it is recommended that patients sit in a normal sitting position, with their chest up, their head up, and their backrests. At the same time, do not sit cross-legged, which is not only harmful to the lower back, but also bad for the hip joint.

    However, for the lumbar spine itself, the effect of cross-legged sitting and normal sitting on the lumbar spine is not very different.
