Introduction
For relatively mild sciatica caused by physiological factors, small needle knife therapy can often achieve a complete cure. However, if the sciatica is severe and associated with underlying primary diseases, it generally cannot be completely cured. Patients with lumbar disc herniation may, under medical guidance, use medications such as Gentongping Granules, Duhuo Jisheng Pills, or Shexiang Zhuanggu Plaster. It is recommended to seek timely medical attention at a hospital and follow the doctor's instructions for treatment.
If sciatica is relatively mild and caused by physiological factors, it can usually be cured with small needle knife therapy. However, if the sciatica is severe and associated with underlying primary diseases, a complete cure is generally not possible. The details are as follows:
Sciatica is a common condition that may be triggered by physiological factors such as intense physical activity or poor posture. In such cases, small needle knife therapy can typically achieve a complete cure. This treatment improves local blood circulation, enhances metabolic function of the affected tissues, and promotes recovery. It is important to undergo this procedure under the guidance of a qualified physician and not attempt it independently.
Sciatica may also result from underlying conditions such as lumbar disc herniation or cervical spondylosis, in which case small needle knife therapy usually cannot provide a definitive cure. Patients with lumbar disc herniation may follow medical advice to use medications such as Gentongping Granules, Duhuo Jisheng Pills, or Shexiang Zhuanggu Plaster. Those with cervical spondylosis may be prescribed medications like Chlornaphazone Tablets, Eperisone Hydrochloride Tablets, or Naproxen Sodium Tablets as directed by their doctor.
If any discomfort occurs, it is recommended to promptly visit a hospital for diagnosis and treatment according to medical guidance.
