Lumbar disc herniation compressing nerves

The waist is very fragile. If you are not careful, it will be hurt, such as lumbar disc herniation. This is closely related to our usual bad habits. There are many reasons that lead to this situation. If you want to "eradicate" it, drug treatment alone is not enough. You must also pay attention to your living habits. Especially for office workers who sit for a long time, you must also pay attention to daily prevention for your own health.

The main reason for lumbar disc herniation and nerve compression is that we usually sit in an incorrect posture. Over time, lumbar disc problems will occur, and in severe cases, nerve compression will occur. If no countermeasures are taken, it will affect normal walking. Everyone must pay attention.

The harm caused by lumbar disc herniation compressing the nerves is very serious. Let us analyze it in detail: 1. The reason why lumbar disc herniation compresses the nerves is due to the prolapse of the nucleus pulposus. Once it protrudes, it will stimulate the lumbar nerve roots and cause fluid accumulation. The local circulation mechanism is affected and cannot be absorbed and metabolized by the body's own ability. Further aggravation of nerve compression and irritation will lead to serious consequences. 2. Lumbar disc herniation compresses the nerves, causing lower back pain and sciatica. To avoid worsening of lumbar disc herniation, you need to go to a specialist hospital for diagnosis and treatment as soon as possible. Most patients experience low back pain and left leg pain. This type of pain is invisible, felt in a deeper area, and has a slow onset. The symptoms at this time are not likely to attract the patient's attention. 3. Patients may experience lower limb pain hypersensitivity in the early stages. Those with a long course of illness or severe nerve root compression may experience numbness or insensitivity to the lower limbs. For patients with high-positioned lumbar disc herniation, the symptoms are mostly manifested in pain in the lower abdomen, groin area, and anterior and inner thigh.

Many people don't care much about the compression of nerves by lumbar disc herniation, not knowing that this poses a hidden danger to their health. For this disease, you can prevent lumbar disc herniation, such as eating more fruits containing vitamin C, try to avoid eating irritating foods, and adjust bad sitting posture. These are all good ways to prevent lumbar disc herniation.
