A herniated disc is a condition wherein a disc protrudes outside of the normal radius within the spine. An individual affected by this condition might not even know there’s anything wrong until the bulging disc presses on a nerve within the spinal column and begin causing excruciating pain. counting on the situation of the spine, a herniated disc can cause pain and loss of range of motion.

As we age, the shock-absorbing spinal discs lose their water content and elasticity, making them stiffer and more vulnerable to damage or injury. Any minor trauma increases the pressure of the disc’s central core and puts stress on the outer layer.
