Background: Conservative treatments have been reported to diminish or resolve clinical symptoms of lumbar intervertebral disc herniation (LIDH) within a few weeks.
Case Summary: Computed tomography and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) of the lumbar region of a 25-year-old male diagnosed with LIDH showed prolapse of the L5/S2 disc. The disc extended 1.

Article Synopsis
- Lumbar disc herniation (LDH) is a common cause of low back pain, and existing treatments like chemonucleolysis and discectomy can pose risks to patients, highlighting the need for safer, non-invasive options.
- A case study of a 34-year-old woman experiencing severe waist pain and leg discomfort led to the diagnosis of an L5/S1 herniated disc, confirmed through imaging and physical exams.
- Treatment using three-dimensional spinal manipulation and acupuncture successfully resolved the herniation, suggesting these methods could be effective alternatives for managing LDH.

Background: Colla Cornus Cervi (CCC) has been used as a traditional Chinese medicine in the treatment of osteoporosis and osteonecrosis of the femoral head. However, the bioavailability of CCC is seriously limited owing to its large molecular weight and complex ingredients. In the present study, antler polypeptide was separated from CCC, and the effects of antler polypeptide on rat bone marrow mesenchymal stem cells (BMSCs) were investigated.
