What are the inspection methods for lumbar disc herniation? What problems should we pay attention to?

First of all, lumbar disc herniation is caused by long-term insufficient waist strength, such as sedentary, bending over to do heavy work for a long time, lumbar muscle tension, or acute lumbar curvature. If the treatment is not timely and thorough, it will lead to the formation of lumbar disc herniation. The first is the old soft tissue injury of lumbar spine. X-ray plain film usually shows that the physiological lordosis of lumbar spine becomes smaller, the unbalanced spinal space becomes narrower or narrower in front, wider in back (lateral position), the spine bends, the width of interstellar space on both sides is uneven, and the diseased side becomes narrower (lateral position). Vertebral instability (dynamic position) can be evaluated. Ordinary X-ray examination is the simplest and most economical examination method, although the detection rate is only 60%.

Aseptic inflammation occurs on the muscle root tendon and bone surface. Inflammation stimulates nerve endings to produce pain, thus stimulating muscle spasm and shortening pain. Sick muscles will strain the spine, resulting in excessive disc pressure. After a long time, it is easy to damage the fibrous ring of the intervertebral disc and squeeze out the contents of the intervertebral disc. Some people and doctors said: "The intervertebral disc is located in the deep part between the upper and lower vertebral bodies, with spinous processes, ligaments, rich muscles and fascia on the back;" It is impossible for a large pool of water to touch the spinal disc in the intestine.

Generally speaking, when there is a problem with our lumbar spine, it will be squeezed to varying degrees, which will hinder the microcirculation of the lumbar spine, thus hindering the supply of nerve blood in the lower limbs, leading to insufficient oxygen supply to the nerves in the lower limbs, alleviating pain and causing local pain in the human body. However, due to incorrect posture and excessive use of computers and mobile phones, many young people have also begun to have problems with disc herniation. Unfortunately, disc herniation can only relieve symptoms, but can't be completely cured. In other words, the dilated intervertebral disc cannot be reversed, nor can the protruding tissue be reversed.

If lumbar disc herniation compresses nerve tissue, it can produce many clinical symptoms. For example, the most common are pain, numbness and weakness in the waist or legs, and some even lead to urinary incontinence or paraplegia of lower limbs.
