Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) with scoliosis usually refers to lumbar disc herniation caused by scoliosis, which is a postural compensatory deformity to reduce low back and leg pain, mostly with nonstructural changes. Scoliosis may disappear after the treatment of LDH.
At present, this kind of scoliosis is mainly treated with medicine and surgery, but all these methods may have some adverse effects.
A 24-year-old female patient was admitted to the acupuncture department of our hospital due to unbearable pain caused by LDH.
According to the patient condition, the acupuncture treatment plan was adopted by Professor Wang Zhanglian, a famous Chinese medicine practitioner.
After 12 weeks of acupuncture treatment, the patient low back pain was significantly relieved.
This case suggests that acupuncture may be an effective alternative treatment for LDH.
