Multimodal Conservative Management of Lumbar Disc Herniation with Radicular Symptoms and Gait Impairment Using Underwater Lumbar Extension in A Patient Refusing Surgical Intervention

Abstract

Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) with radiculopathy may lead to significant functional impairment, including gait disturbance and pain-related disability. While surgical decompression is indicated in severe cases, many patients opt for conservative rehabilitation-based management.
