Can the IUD cause lumbar disc herniation?

Lumbar disc herniation is a particularly torturous thing. One has to endure the agony of low back pain, leg numbness and soreness. This is mainly because the protruding nucleus pulposus in the lumbar spine compresses the nerve roots, causing these soreness and numbness phenomena. Lumbar disc herniation is also closely related to daily living habits and working environment. Excessive work pressure, frequent overload of work, sitting in the office for a long time and little exercise can all cause lumbar disease, so you should pay attention.

Lumbar disc herniation has no effect on the upper ring. There is no best ring, such as T-ring, IUD, Genie ring, etc. The best ring is the one that suits your uterus. There are intrauterine rings and vaginal rings, each of which has its own advantages and disadvantages. Generally speaking, if you want long-term contraception, I suggest you consider the intrauterine ring. It would be better if you consult your doctor in person. Please note the following after the placement of the ring: Do not do heavy physical labor within a week; Rest in bed within three days, as exerting too much force may cause bleeding and inflammation. Bathing and sexual intercourse are prohibited within half a month after the operation. Within 3 months after placement, pay attention to less activity and avoid heavy physical activities, including long-term walking, long-term sitting, standing, etc. If the menstrual flow may increase, you should pay attention to whether the contraceptive device falls off during menstruation. If there is vaginal bleeding, you should not have sex or take a bath.

The common symptoms are: pain in the lower back, radiating pain in the lower limbs, abnormal sensation and numbness, etc. Treatment can be divided into surgical treatment and non-surgical treatment

1. Rest in bed

2. Drug treatment

3. Traction therapy

4. Physical therapy

5. Massage therapy

6. Acupuncture

7. Blockade therapy

8. Acupuncture knife therapy, etc.

Patients with lumbar disc herniation should pay attention to their daily life and sleep on a hard bed. Sleeping on a hard bed can reduce the pressure on the intervertebral disc. Maintain good living habits, pay attention to keeping your waist warm, and try not to catch cold. Avoid catching cold and overeating raw and cold food, and don't stay under the air conditioner for a long time, as this is not good for your waist! Strengthen the protection of your waist and back. Don't bend over or exert force because this is caused by the IUD. The contraceptive ring is a foreign body and the body needs a period of adaptation after it is placed in the uterus. Most people who choose intrauterine devices for contraception have no adverse reactions, but a few will experience some side effects and complications. If you experience lumbar pain, lower abdominal distension, bloody leucorrhea, spotting, irregular vaginal bleeding, increased menstrual flow, shortened menstrual cycle, etc. after IUD insertion, if the symptoms are mild, no treatment is generally required. Once the body adapts, the symptoms will gradually ease or disappear on their own. Those with severe symptoms can go to the hospital for symptomatic treatment. If the treatment is ineffective, the IUD should be removed and other contraceptive methods should be used instead.
