How should I handle my child's muscle strain?

Patient's question:

The child is in the third year of junior high school and doing waist exercises. They entered senior high school this year. In October of this year, the child said they had lower back pain. They visited several doctors who all said it was a muscle strain. They have taken many blood-activating medicines, but none have worked.

Doctor's answer:

From your description, there are three main aspects to consider. First is lumbar muscle strain, and second is lumbar disc herniation. Lumbar muscle strain and disc herniation can be treated with strict measures, such as bed rest, sleeping on a hard mattress, preventing cold exposure to the lower back, oral medications, local physical therapy, acupuncture, and functional exercises. The above suggestions are for the question "What should I do if my child strains a muscle," and I hope it helps you. Wishing you good health!
