Can lumbar disc herniation still keep fit?
According to my personal experience, the answer is: you can exercise, but it depends on the severity and onset time.

About 2008 -2009, I sat in front of the computer and wrote for a long time. It was a basement in winter. It's freezing, and I haven't exercised for a long time, and my blood vessels are blocked. My legs start to numb, and then my back aches. Later, I went to the hospital for CT and checked sciatica. The doctor said there was a precursor to lumbar disc herniation.

At that time, it was depressing to go to acupuncture and traction every day. Besides, it's winter, so it's inconvenient to take off your pants.

I asked the doctor many questions about this. The doctor told me that the problem of the waist was to avoid more exercise at first. Lying on the bed, it is necessary to make a hard bed, not a soft Simmons mattress, but to lie upright and use a hot water bag or electric blanket to promote blood circulation at the waist.

After this process is relieved, the doctor says that you should exercise more, and you should not keep Zuo Li posture or static posture for a long time, because it will lead to a vicious circle.

You can walk backwards, which is best. Because people usually look forward and move forward, the lumbar spine bends forward for a long time. In order to counteract this twisting behavior, you can train yourself to walk backwards, so that the strength of the lumbar spine can be balanced after bending, which can alleviate the symptoms of lumbar disc herniation.

So in the winter of 2008, I often go to the square at night and walk backwards. At this time, do more exercise-but don't do strenuous exercise, be sure to exercise gently and gently, which will activate your bones and muscles.

In recent years, my legs are a little numb except when it is cold in winter, and it is quite good at other times, and there is no problem at all in summer. Usually I go running in the playground. I run very fast, running 2-3 kilometers, and my waist and legs are fine.

So lumbar disc herniation can be exercised-you need to increase the amount of exercise step by step.
