We Can Help
Treatment for Bulging or Herniated Discs
Between each vertebra is a disc with a tough outer ring and soft, gel-like center. They help provide mobility and flexibility along the spine, acting as cushions, so the bones don't contact each other as you move. Without discs, we would be unable to move our upper torso. However, when one of the discs breaks, it can lead to a wide range of conditions depending on the extent of the injury.
Worsening Symptoms
Movements that increase pressure on the spine often exacerbate herniated disc symptoms, including coughing, sneezing, or bending your body forward, all of which might cause pain to intensify.
Numbing and Tingling
A herniated disc can cause numbness and tingling sensations in the affected area, due to nerve compression. You may experience these sensations in your legs, feet, and lower back.
Back Pain
Localized pain that worsens when bending, twisting, or lifting heavy objects. Pain might ease when lying down or reclining, as it reduces pressure on the spine.
Muscle Weakness
Pressure on spinal nerves can affect motor function, leading to noticeable muscle weakness. You may find it difficult to perform specific movements or tasks.
