A “slipped disc” is a common term used to describe a disc bulge or herniation. Spinal discs act as cushions between the vertebrae. When damaged, they can press on nearby nerves and cause significant pain.
Symptoms of a Slipped Disc
- Sharp or radiating back pain
- Numbness or tingling in arms or legs
- Muscle weakness
- Pain that worsens with sitting or bending
What Causes Disc Injuries?
Disc injuries may result from lifting injuries, repetitive strain, poor posture, car accidents, or degeneration over time.
Chiropractic adjustments, combined with rehabilitative strategies, may help reduce pressure on affected nerves and improve spinal mechanics.
