Editor this paragraph of disease prognosis
In general, to undergo a rigorous selection of patients with prolapse of lumbar intervertebral disc after operation treatment, the vast majority of the effect is very satisfactory, the pain was immediately relieved, feel better soon, muscle strength gradually recovered. But a few patients still remains part of symptoms and signs.

On one hand, the operation of nerve root stimulation can cause nerve root edema, which relieve the compression effect in the short term can not reflect, so after general short-term application of hormone and dehydrating agent to reduce edema. On the other hand, if the herniated nucleus pulposus block and its surrounding hyperplasia without removal of clean, or combined with nerve root canal stenosis and only extirpation of nucleus pulposus, sometimes after a certain degree of sciatica. Another part of the patients and the presence of spinal instability, if the simple removal of nucleus pulposus without bone grafting, postoperative possible sciatica disappeared but low back pain persists, even appears again leg pain.

There are some patients with nerve compression for a long time, or oppression seriously, delayed operation time, nerve irreversible degeneration, such patients prone to functional recovery of nerve dysfunction, muscle strength could not return to normal, numb areas may also exist for a long time, even aggravate the pain and numbness.

Some elderly lumbar disc herniation patients with multiple complex lumbar lesions, such as lumbar disc degeneration, facet joint inflammation, osteoporosis, simple removal of nucleus pulposus can not completely solve the patients with these symptoms. Postoperative have to rely on drugs and physical therapy to the treatment of residual symptoms.

In addition, some patients at the same time the presence of soft tissue injuries such as lumbar muscle strain, lumbar myofascial inflammation caused by physical symptoms, patients with sciatica after the settlement, the focus shifted to the strain caused by pain, through drug and local block in the treatment of soft tissue pain. Patients should pay attention to is that, some other diseases such as tumors of the spine, hip joint disease symptoms like lumbar disc herniation, happened to your radiographic examination also disc herniation, resulting in misdiagnosis and false treatment, although this kind of circumstance occur rarely, but often also be heard. If a disk operation after the symptoms do not disappear, you must go to the hospital to see, do not allow someone to continue
