Herniated Disc

Do you experience sharp pain in your lower back, or sciatica shooting down your leg? Or weakness in your arms? The discomfort can make it hard to sit, stand, or move with comfort.

A herniated disc occurs when the soft, gel-like center of a spinal disc pushes through a tear in its outer layer, leading to nerve compression and inflammation. This can result in debilitating pain, restricted mobility, and even loss of function in the affected limbs.

A herniated disc can result from aging, repetitive movements, heavy lifting, or sudden injury. Over time, spinal discs lose flexibility, making them more prone to tearing. Poor posture, obesity, and genetics can also increase the risk. When a disc ruptures, it can press on nearby nerves, causing pain, numbness, or weakness in the back, neck, or limbs.
