Experiencing sharp back pain, numbness, or tingling that radiates into your arms or legs?

Q&A
What is a disc herniation and how is it different from a bulging disc?
A disc herniation occurs when the inner material of a spinal disc breaks through its outer layer, often irritating or compressing nearby nerves. A bulging disc, on the other hand, is when the disc protrudes outward but the inner material remains contained. Herniated discs typically cause more severe nerve-related symptoms.
Can a herniated disc heal without surgery?
Yes, many herniated discs improve over time with conservative treatments like physical therapy, rest, and posture correction. Surgery is usually only recommended if symptoms are severe or persistent after other treatments have failed.
What are the warning signs that a disc herniation is serious?
Warning signs include progressive weakness in the limbs, loss of bladder or bowel control, or severe, unrelenting pain. These may indicate a more serious complication, such as spinal cord compression, and require immediate medical attention.
What treatments are recommended for disc herniation?
Physical therapy is one of the most effective treatments. It focuses on reducing inflammation, relieving nerve pressure, improving spinal alignment, and strengthening supportive muscles. In some cases, medications, spinal injections, or surgery may be considered depending on severity.
