Objective To explore the effect of psychology in the treatment of low back and leg pain caused by lumbar disc herniation. Methods 60 patients with low back and leg pain caused by lumbar disc herniation were randomly divided into two groups with 30 cases in each group. The two groups were treated with the same intervention measures. The experimental group was treated with psychological intervention measures on the basis of the reference group. The clinical effects of the two groups were compared. Results in the reference group, 6 cases were cured and 10 cases were improved. The clinical effective rate was 53.3%; In the experimental group, 21 cases were cured, 6 cases were improved, and the clinical effective rate was 90.0%. The experimental group was significantly higher than the reference group, with significant difference (x2=14.03, P < 0.05). Before treatment, Barthel score of quality of life in the control group was 1.5 ± 0.1, and that in the observation group was 1.4 ± 0.2. There was no significant difference between the two groups (P > 0.05); After treatment, Barthel score of the control group was 3.3 ± 0.3 and that of the observation group was 7.1 ± 1.1. There was significant statistical difference between the two groups, t=10.24, P < 0.05. There was no significant difference in pain scores between the two groups before treatment (P > 0.05); After treatment, the pain score of the experimental group was significantly lower than that of the control group Conclusion the effect of psychological and rehabilitation interventions in the treatment of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation pain is outstanding, which can improve the clinical efficacy and is worthy of clinical application.
