Can I use heat to treat my lumbar disc herniation?

Lumbar disc herniation has become an increasingly common lumbar disease. In life, everyone must prevent lumbar disc herniation as early as possible. Because lumbar disc herniation is often caused by patients not paying attention to the use of their waist, lumbar spondylosis should be treated with some correct methods after lumbar disc herniation occurs. So can patients with lumbar disc herniation use hot compress treatment?

Prevention of lumbar disc herniation is very important. If the waist is injured, you must wait until the waist injury is completely healed before you can work. Many people start working as soon as the waist pain is slightly relieved, which will only aggravate the waist injury and cause more serious consequences. The following is a specific discussion on whether hot compress can be used for lumbar disc herniation and the causes of lumbar disc herniation:

Lumbar disc herniation can be treated with hot compress, which can promote blood circulation in the waist, but it has no therapeutic effect. Lumbar disc herniation can be treated with massage, traction, acupressure, physical therapy and other methods. You can take medicines such as Huoluo Jianyao Pills and Zhuangyao Bushen Pills to relieve symptoms. In addition, you should sleep on a hard bed, avoid bending over and doing physical work, and it is very important to develop good living habits.

The causes of lumbar disc herniation: If the waist has been injured but not treated in time or the treatment is not thorough enough, it can easily induce lumbar disc herniation. Lumbar disc herniation is related to genetic factors. Sudden weight bearing, pregnancy, cold or moisture, incorrect sitting or standing posture, etc. can all cause lumbar disc herniation. After adulthood, the intervertebral disc will gradually lack blood circulation and have poor self-repair ability, which can easily induce lumbar disc herniation.

Through the above description, we know that lumbar disc herniation can be treated with hot compress, but it will not have a therapeutic effect. The above introduces some treatment methods. You can choose the treatment method that suits you according to your actual situation. We also understand the cause of lumbar disc herniation. Many causes of lumbar disc herniation have a lot to do with our own living habits. Therefore, it is very important to develop good living habits. In your daily diet, you can eat more foods high in calcium, such as eggs, milk, lean meat, etc. At the same time, having a good mood is also very important for the recovery of the disease. You can participate in more social activities or do things that you are interested in to relax yourself.
