As for the efficacy of hot compress (plaster, etc. ) I am concerned that "some patients will say that the drug can penetrate into the intervertebral disc by heating, and they will feel more comfortable."
In fact, this is more likely because the effect of fever and the effect of bandage on the affected area (which can achieve a little effect of strengthening muscle contraction) will make patients feel comfortable.
Moreover, due to the blocking effect of the skin, it is difficult for the medicinal components of the plaster to penetrate into the affected areas, such as deeply damaged muscles and nerves.
Moreover, psychological effects have a great influence on pain.
You can try rehabilitation exercises, such as the following actions:
(Suitable for patients with ordinary lumbar processes. If there are patients with lumbar spinal stenosis and lumbar spondylolisthesis, the situation is more serious. We must combine the advice of clinicians and analyze specific problems, and we must not abuse them. )
PS:
Everything depends on the next day:
If it is lightened, it means that the exercise of the previous day is ok;
If you emphasize too much or the action is incorrect;
If there is no change, it may be too little, and gradually increase the amount of exercise.
Generally speaking, exercise 15-30 minutes every day. If the symptoms are serious, it is recommended to exercise for 10 minutes on the first day, and then slowly add time when the symptoms are relieved or unchanged the next day. Some people exercise for more than an hour every day, and the most important thing is to look at symptoms and endurance.
The lumbar process can also be restored to a normal appearance. Full of hope, embrace the sunshine, and good things will happen.
