Herniated discs have had closed injections, have done a small needle, is it no longer good for treatment?

In life, there are still a lot of lumbar disc herniation tormented by the crowd, light cause lumbar discomfort and pain, heavy compression of the nerve, action difficulties.

Lumbar disc herniation is a type of injury in which the disc morphology undergoes a localized outward expansion change that causes clinical symptoms. It is caused by uneven and asymmetric disc degeneration and almost total fracture of the annulus fibrosus in some areas.

Recently I saw a question about lumbar intervertebral disc: lumbar intervertebral disc herniation is serious, causing weakness in the lower body trouble, no obvious pain, and even some cold feeling, in the hospital to do a small acupuncture many times to no avail how to do?

Small needle knife is a kind of method between surgery and non-surgery, its essence is a kind of raw can penetrate deep into the lesions of the loosening operation, is commonly used in the treatment of a lot of common pain problems, such as knee injuries, or due to long-term strain caused by the muscle adhesion caused by long-term pain problems, through the small needle knife will be localized for stripping, and then relieve the pain.

Also for the lumbar disc herniation problem is, through the small needle knife deep nerve compression location, the surrounding tissue will be cut, stripped, reduce local pressure, and then reduce the pain and other nerve symptoms, if the diagnosis is correct, carried out a precise assessment, clear needle knife should be dealt with the site, that is, the specific location of the cause of these symptoms, and then scientific and safe operation, should be more or less! will have some effect, even if it is for a period of time after the treatment has just been done.

The reason why there is no relief after treatment may be due to the following reasons:

(1) The weakness and numbness of the lower body is not caused by lumbar bulge

Besides lumbar bulge, there are some other problems that can cause numbness and weakness of the lower limbs, for example, the weakness of the gluteal muscle strain, especially the pear muscle injury, which compresses the sciatic nerve and leads to the numbness of the lower limbs, which can cause the numbness and weakness of the lower limbs. Compression of the sciatic nerve, resulting in numbness of the lower limbs. In addition, it may be caused by the cauda equina compression, that is, behind our pelvis, below the lumbar vertebrae, the sacral foramen of the nerve is compressed, if this is the case, just for the lumbar region to deal with is not useful, which requires you to go through a series of examination and evaluation, to make sure that your diagnosis is not a problem,

(2) incorrect location of the treatment<

The location of the real need for treatment is not identified before treatment is carried out, or it is not completely treated thoroughly during the process. The effect will not be obvious.

(3) Changes in the blood vessels and nerves of the lower limbs

Because nerve compression over a long period of time has caused the nerves and blood vessels of the lower limbs to have atrophied, or to have produced large adhesions, the symptoms will still be there even if the pressure is lifted off of the area that caused the problem in the first place.

So as to how to solve the problem, I suggest considering the following methods:

(1) Go to a professional hospital or organization to do a more detailed and specific evaluation and examination to determine where the problem lies;

(2) Pay attention to the warmth of the lower back and lower limbs, and insist on soaking your feet in 40 degrees of thermostatic water for 20-30 minutes every day. Because no matter what the cause of the weakness and numbness of the lower limbs, warmth and foot soaking will promote circulation in the lower limbs and reduce the coldness of the lower limbs;

(3) appropriate exercise, exercise including the core and lower limbs. Because part of the symptoms may be due to muscle weakness, and then the symptoms appear even more weak and then immobile, there is a vicious circle, even after the needle knife treatment, the symptoms are lifted, but the muscle strength has not been strengthened, may be a few activities after the symptoms have appeared. So you have to work with part of the training no matter what.
