Patients with lumbar disc herniation should generally sleep in supine position, and a pillow can be placed under their legs, which can reduce the pressure on the lumbar spine and relax the muscles of the waist. Secondly, sleeping on your side and bending your knees can reduce back pain.

Be careful not to sleep on your stomach, which will increase the pressure on the lumbar spine and aggravate the pain symptoms. At the same time, we should also pay attention to the hardness of the bed. Too soft or too hard a bed can cause low back pain. Not only should you have the right posture when sleeping, but you should also pay attention to keeping warm.

Matters needing attention in lumbar disc herniation

1, users need to keep their waist warm to avoid catching a cold. Long-term cold in the waist will lead to decreased blood circulation around the lumbar spine and aggravate the symptoms of low back pain.

2, pay attention to rest, avoid lumbar load-bearing activities, especially bending for a long time, make the lumbar spine in a state of flexion for a long time, increase the burden on the lumbar spine, aggravate the symptoms of lumbar disc herniation, and avoid sitting for a long time. After sitting for about two hours, it is necessary to stretch the waist properly. You can put on the waist line when you are doing waist exercises to increase the stability of the lumbar spine.
