Lumbar disc herniation associated with radiculopathy (LDHR) is a frequent cause of spine-related disorders. This condition is triggered by irritation of the nerve root caused by a herniated disc. There are various non-surgical and surgical approaches available for managing this disorder. Non-surgical treatment approaches are considered the preferred initial management methods as they are proven to be efficient in reducing both pain and disability. This review involves an extensive exploration of recent clinical research, focusing on various non-surgical approaches for LDHR. By exploring the effectiveness and patient-related outcomes of various conservative approaches, valuable insights can inform clinical decision-making, contributing to enhanced patient care and improved outcomes in the treatment of LDHR. The objective of this article is to introduce advanced and new treatment techniques, supplementing existing knowledge on various conservative treatments. It provides a comprehensive overview of the current therapeutic landscape, suggesting pathways for future research to fill the gaps in knowledge. Interventions that yield moderate evidence (Level B) of effectiveness for the conservative treatment of LDHR include patient education and self-management, McKenzie method, mobilization and manipulation, exercise therapy, traction (short-term outcomes), neural mobilization, and epidural injections. Two interventions were identified to have weak evidence of effectiveness (Level C): traction for long-term outcomes and dry needling. Three interventions were identified to have conflicting or no evidence (Level D) of effectiveness: electro-diagnostic-based management, laser and ultrasound, and electrotherapy.
