If lumbar disc bulging is mild, patients are advised to take medications such as celecoxib capsules under the guidance of a physician. Acupuncture may also be used to alleviate symptoms. For more severe cases unresponsive to medication, prompt consultation at a reputable hospital is recommended, where minimally invasive spinal surgery may be performed. In daily life, patients should prioritize adequate rest and avoid excessive physical strain or lifting heavy objects.
