Introduction
Back pain can be one of the most painful and debilitating conditions experienced. One such condition is a herniated disc. The bones of your spine, also referred to as vertebrae, are cushioned and separated by spongy discs that act as shock absorbers and provide flexibility for the spine as long as the discs are healthy.
The discs can become damaged by breaking or bulging. The lumbar region, lower back area of the spine, is most affected. Of course, a herniated disc may also affect other regions of the spine and neck.
There are many causes of a herniated disc. As you age, the discs aren't as flexible anymore. A herniated disc in this case is the result of wear and tear. Injuries to your spine may result in the cracking or breaking of the discs that may lead to bulging.
Exactly what are the symptoms of a herniated disc? Herniated discs that affect the nerves can cause numbness and pain. The location of the nerve will dictate the area of pain. For example, if the herniated disc is located in the lower back area the pain may travel past the buttocks into the leg by way of the sciatic nerve.
