Brief Summary: Physical therapy and rehabilitation may improve low back pain and quality of life after lumbar disc herniation But there is not any agreement of its optimal start time and rehabilitative methods This study evaluates the effects of early and late rehabilitation to the low back pain and quality of life following unilateral microdiscectomy
Detailed Description: Lumbar disc herniation LDH is a frequently encountered ailment in neurosurgery clinics and is prevalent among the general populace with a reported incidence of about 2 As it is primarily observed in the workforce it adversely affects their quality of life One common reason for referring a patient for surgery is radiculopathy and low back pain co-occurrence LDH is typically observed in the adult population in active occupation Most patients with LDH can be treated conservatively but surgery may be necessary for around 13 of cases

The decision to operate depends on the individual patient but persistent radicular pain and neurological dysfunction unresponsive to conservative treatment are common indications Minimally invasive surgical techniques are becoming more prevalent Currently microsurgery is the most common approach for lumbar disc herniation In addition endoscopic and minimally invasive surgeries have become more prevalent

Lumbar microdiscectomy is a surgical procedure involving discectomy with paravertebral muscle dissection Subsequently patients may experience postoperative back pain potentially impacting their quality of life Physical rehabilitation is frequently suggested following surgery Some studies have indicated that physical therapy and rehabilitation may not significantly improve low back pain and quality of life after lumbar disc herniation There is yet to be an agreement on the effectiveness of physical therapy its optimal start time and rehabilitative methods

This study evaluates the effects of early and late rehabilitation following unilateral microdiscectomy for lumbar disc herniation It also examines the differences in low back pain and patients quality of life due to exercise
