Effect of Traditional Chinese Medicine Packing Combined with Lumbar Function Rehabilitation Training on Postoperative Recovery in Patients with Lumbar Disc Herniation
Abstract：Objective: To explore the effect of traditional Chinese medicine packing combined with lumbar function rehabilitation training on postoperative recovery in patients with lumbar disc herniation (LDH). Methods: A total of 98 LDH patients who underwent surgical treatment at Zhengzhou Orthopedic Hospital from November 2022 to January 2024 were selected as the study subjects and randomly divided into a control group (49 cases) and an intervention group (49 cases) according to the random number table method. The control group received lumbar function rehabilitation training, while the intervention group received traditional Chinese medicine packing combined with lumbar function rehabilitation training. The recovery effects, lumbar pain levels, surface electromyography values, lumbar range of motion, and lumbar function were compared between the two groups. Results: After 4 weeks of intervention, the recovery effect of the intervention group was better than that of the control group, with a statistically significant difference (P<0.05). The visual analog scale (VAS) score and Oswestry Disability Index (ODI) score of the intervention group were lower than those of the control group, while the integrated electromyography (IEMG), root mean square (RMS), median frequency (MF), lumbar flexion angle, lumbar extension angle, and Japanese Orthopaedic Association (JOA) score were higher in the intervention group, with statistically significant differences (P<0.05). Conclusion: The use of traditional Chinese medicine packing combined with lumbar function rehabilitation training in LDH patients can improve postoperative recovery, reduce lumbar pain, improve surface electromyography values, increase the range of lumbar motion, and enhance lumbar function.
