Abstract
Objective: Studying on characteristics of pain of patients with lumbar disc herniation. Subject and method: Prospective study, described in 117 patients with lumbar disc herniation who have been treated as inpatients at 108 Military Central Hospital from November 2014 to November 2017. Result: The average pain score in legs (7.39 ± 2.54) was higher than spines (5.90 ± 2.68). The average pain score in legs and spines of women were higher than in men with p<0.05. The proportion of severe pain in legs (71.0%) were higher than that in spines (46.1%) with p<0.05, the proportion of painlessness accounts for a little in spines (3.4%) and in legs (0.9%). The feeling of spreading pain mainly focussed on the sciatic nerve. Conclusion: Pain of patients with lumbar disc herniation is a mixed pain of with predominant neuropathic pain. It is necessary to control pain of patients with lumbar disc herniation in many different methods.
