How much does the surgery cost for lumbar disc herniation? Answers from the doctors

Many patients want to know how much is the cost of lumbar disc herniation surgery? The following is a collection of answers from some professional orthopedic surgeons, hoping to help patients. Doctor A:

Lumbar disc herniation is generally not recommended for surgical treatment, which is expensive and easily causes complications.

treatment can choose pure Chinese medicine preparations. Applying to the affected area and related acupuncture points, the medicinal power can penetrate the subcutaneous bone directly, and through the chain biochemical reaction of Chinese medicine, the intervertebral disc protrusion (78% is water) loses water and shrinks, and the volume becomes smaller until it dissolves and disappears, thereby releasing the compression on the nerve. Promote functional recovery. At the same time, it can inhibit the development of calcification and hyperplasia, and can loosen the adhesion of blood vessels and ligaments, eliminate aseptic inflammation, force the absorption of nutrients in the intervertebral disc, increase elasticity, and finally achieve the purpose of eliminating symptoms, relieving pain, and completely recovering.

There are currently three types of treatments for intervertebral disc herniation in clinical practice, one is conservative treatment, such as traction, acupuncture, massage, physiotherapy, medicine, laser acupuncture, etc., mainly to relieve symptoms, and the second is surgery It can be cured, but the operation risk is high, the trauma is large, and there are many complications, which is also difficult for patients to accept. The third type is minimally invasive interventional treatment technology, which can achieve the purpose of surgical treatment, so that the protrusion no longer compresses the nerve root or dura mater At the same time, the trauma is minimal and there are no complications. This type is the most effective and safest method for treating intervertebral disc herniation. Minimally invasive interventional therapy requires a hospital stay for about ten days, and the cost is about seven or eight thousand. You can follow Choose according to your own situation.

Doctor C:

can take conservative treatment, including waist physiotherapy, traction, oral anti-inflammatory and analgesic drugs, massage, etc.;  

guidance:

conservative treatment for more than 3-6 months, the symptoms are not relieved or relapse For those who do, surgical treatment can be considered. The cost of the operation is about several thousand yuan, and the charges vary from place to place. Dr.

Ding: If

is less than a last resort, don’t choose surgery. Anything protruding more than a dozen millimeters is not difficult to treat. The key is to find a suitable treatment. The risk of surgery is very high because the doctors in big hospitals have nothing to do with this disease. At the end, municipal hospitals are generally about 10,000 yuan. After

surgery, you should pay attention to the following points:

①Patients need to stay in bed strictly after surgery. The bed is best to use a hard bed. The bed time is about 4-5 weeks. According to the age of the patient, It depends on the physique and the scope of the tissue to be removed.

②The nursing staff should assist in turning over early after the operation. It is not advisable to forcefully turn over to ensure good healing of the lumbar fascia, muscles and ligaments.

③After full bed rest, it can be protected by a suitable waist circumference. Go to the ground for light activities. If there is bone graft during the operation, it is advisable to use a plaster vest to fix it for 3-4 months. After the bone graft is completely healed, go to the ground for activities. During the recovery period, the patient should gradually strengthen the muscles of the lower back. And pay attention to correct bad posture, pay attention to the self-protection of lower back activities to prevent the recurrence of the disease.

⑤After the operation, mental workers gradually return to work after 2-3 months, and manual workers can start work only after 3-4 months. Should be light to heavy, working hours from short to long, and avoid strong bending into weight-bearing activities. Dr.

life care:

if the pain is not severe or conservative treatment is available If it is effective, I think it is better to treat conservatively first, there is really no way to consider surgery!! How to say surgery is also a traumatic treatment!! Dr.

:

If you are not a last resort, do not choose surgery, highlight more than a dozen Millimeters are not difficult to treat. The key is to find a suitable treatment. The risk of surgery is very high. The doctors in the big hospitals have no idea about the disease. You don't know how high the cure rate of a doctor's surgery is.

Guide Opinion:

you go see whereThe more famous orthopedic hospitals will not adopt minimally invasive treatment. The cure rate is not high and the risk is high. Although it is not a major operation, no one can guarantee the remaining failure syndrome. Although the operation time is short, most of them recover After half a year or more than a year, if the traumatic nerve is damaged, other conservative treatments will have little effect. There are many problems with surgery. Not to mention that recovery is to ensure that there is no recurrence. It is also very good, otherwise there will not be so many types. In the case of surgery, Chinese medicine believes that: if the onset of cervical and lumbar spondylosis is indeed due to osteophyte degenerative changes and intervertebral disc herniation, degeneration becomes the main reason, then use surgical methods to remove bone hyperplasia and herniated intervertebral discs to relieve the nerves Compression, isn’t this logical, and the disease is cured after surgery? But the results of the surgery are not ideal. A few cases of surgery are completely ineffective. Some have removed huge lumbar intervertebral disc protrusions, which relieved the compression on the nerve roots, but the postoperative symptoms did not relieve. , And some are even completely ineffective. Although about 50-80% have relatively satisfactory or satisfactory short-term or short-term effects after surgery, the long-term effects are very unsatisfactory. Some statistics have no significant long-term effects of surgical treatment and non-surgical treatment. Difference. On the contrary, the residual intractable neck, shoulder, waist and leg pain after the operation or "surgery failure syndrome"; some can not be solved by the second operation or even the third operation, which becomes very difficult and impossible in the medical world The problem of radical cure, this is also the reason why it is recommended that you do not choose surgery if you are not a last resort. In conservative treatment, you can consider manual treatment. In this regard, there are only a handful of online treatments for this disease with pure manual methods in the country. Consult the technique. I believe it will definitely be a good reference for you. You must be cautious about waist surgery. Doctor

G:

The medical community agrees that lumbar disc herniation is caused by long-term unreasonable posture, so the treatment should be to correct the unreasonable posture. Medically, it is medicine pain relief, acupuncture, massage, traction, physical therapy and other methods. Although it can relieve lumbar intervertebral disc herniation, it also often recurs. In the end, it is expensive and still lasts for a long time. It will gradually increase with age.

has always been considered the most effective way, and it can be effective in the process of reversing. Correct the unreasonable posture of the lumbar (lumbar lordosis), reduce the pelvic anterior inclination and lumbar lordosis, and at the same time exercise your own muscles, so that the lumbar disc herniation can be effectively relieved and treated.

You can try walking backwards and see the pain Will the feeling be reduced. When walking backwards, pay attention to wearing flat shoes and walking slowly. If

walking backwards is inconvenient, you can have no physical simulation experience, barefoot or wear flat shoes, and step on a book about 20 mm thick on the forefoot. Keep standing upright, the longer the experience, the better, feel it, and whether the pain is relieved.

I want to tell friends who are not serious enough to want surgery, you must not wait until the condition is so serious that you must have surgery. Pay attention to it when the physical symptoms are mild. Don't take it lightly because the symptoms are small. Major diseases are caused by minor symptoms and some bad habits. Usually, you should consciously improve your body's movements and state, and increase the range of activities of all parts of the body, that is, conscious exercise.
