Dr. Lin Yunfei
Lumbar intervertebral disc bulging may result from prolonged desk work, poor sitting posture, or long-term residence in a damp environment—factors that cause anatomical changes in the lumbar intervertebral discs. This condition may present with symptoms such as low back pain, lower limb pain, and lower limb paresthesia (numbness). Under a physician’s guidance, patients may appropriately use medications such as celecoxib capsules, which effectively suppress inflammation and alleviate pain.
