Disc Herniations
- A herniated disc, also known as a slipped disc, is a condition in which a disc in the spine becomes displaced and presses on the spinal cord or nerves. This can cause pain and numbness in the affected area. Herniated discs are most common in the lower back but can occur anywhere in the spine. Treatment typically involves rest, ice, and pain medication. Surgery may be necessary in some cases.
- Herniated discs have two main types: cervical (neck) and lumbar (lower back). Cervical herniated discs are less standard than lumbar herniated discs. Symptoms of a cervical herniated disc include neck pain, arm pain, and numbness or tingling in the arm or hand. Symptoms of a lumbar herniated disc include lower back pain, leg pain, and numbness or tingling in the leg or foot.
- Herniated discs are caused by wear and tear on the discs over time. This can be due to aging, injury, or repetitive motions. Discs become less flexible and more likely to rupture as we age. Obesity, smoking, and heavy lifting jobs can also contribute to developing herniated discs.
