Lumbar disc herniation nursing measures
Herniated lumbar discs require attention to several aspects during treatment,
First, it is important to advise patients to sleep on a hard bed as much as possible, avoiding soft beds to facilitate the exercise of the lower back muscles;
Second, try to minimize sitting and actions such as bending over and picking things up, as these can reduce the load on the lumbar spine, thus alleviating the condition caused by the disc herniation;
Third, appropriate functional exercises can be performed, such as the small bird flying exercise and lower back muscle training;
Fourth, in terms of diet, opt for plain and less stimulating foods, avoiding the consumption of high-protein, highly nutritious foods, which can increase body weight and thus increase the load on the waist, aggravating the herniated disc situation.
