How to solve knee pain caused by lumbar disc herniation

Lumbar problems have always been one of the factors that restrict people's ability to move. Lumbar disc herniation is a relatively common symptom, and the incidence rate is very high. It is almost a common disease among middle-aged and elderly people. This may be due to the fact that middle-aged and elderly people have been engaged in heavy physical work for a long time. Many patients have problems with lumbar disc herniation and knee pain in the later stages, which has caused certain restrictions on the patients' ability to move. So, how to solve the problem of lumbar disc herniation and knee pain? Let’s take a look at the simple explanation below.

1. Patients should pay more attention to eating calcium supplements, such as milk, soy products, dairy products, kelp, and other foods. This type of food is easier for the human body to absorb, and the minerals in it can supplement the bones and make them harder. However, remember not to eat spicy and irritating foods, as these foods can easily cause calcium loss and make bones fragile.

2. Patients should pay more attention to keeping their waist warm and avoid being exposed to cold wind. Cold wind may cause rheumatism and other diseases, which will make the already diseased lumbar spine more sensitive, and a slight external stimulation may cause serious lesions. Also, wear a scarf around your waist if possible. This is more conducive to protecting the waist. Remember not to let the patient do heavy physical work. Also, do not let the patient stay up late for a long time, as this is very detrimental to the treatment.

3. You can do some waist exercises appropriately. Do not sit for a long time. Sitting for a long time will cause inertia in the lumbar spine, or long-term compression from sitting will cause the lumbar spine to deform, which is not conducive to the recovery of the lumbar spine. Therefore, you should exercise your waist and back muscles more, but know when to stop.
