Description:

A misplacement with one of the rubbery cushions known as discs that sit in between the vertebrae that stack to form the spine is referred to as a herniated disc. The nucleus is the soft jelly-like core of a spinal disc. The annulus a harder rubbery outer layer surrounds the nucleus. When a portion of the nucleus protrudes through an annulus, it results in a tear, thus resulting in a prolapsed or herniated disc. There are instances when a herniated disc is referred to as a ruptured or slipped disc. Although they can occur anywhere along the spine, a herniated disc most frequently affects the lower back. Depending on the location of the herniated disc, an arm or leg may experience pain numbness or weakness. Many people with herniated discs don't experience any symptoms. When someone does experience symptoms, they usually get better with time.

Cause:

The inner softer part of the disc may protrude through the outer weaker part of the disc for a variety of reasons. Sneezing bending awkwardly or lifting something heavy in an awkward position, for instance, can put additional pressure on the disc. When a person has a disc weakness, this could be enough to trigger a prolapse. A prolapsed disc may occur as a result of the following factors: • A job where lifting is heavy. • A profession that involves a lot of sitting, particularly driving. • Exercise or physically demanding activities. • Smoking. • Being too heavy or obese. • Growing older (weaker discs are more likely to occur in older people). • Genetics: Wear and tear on the discs may be related to certain inherited diseases or genetic factors.

Symptom:

Although herniation can happen anywhere in the spine, herniated discs typically occur in the neck and lower back. The location of the disc and whether it is pressing on a nerve determine the symptoms. One side of the body is typically affected by herniated discs. • Leg or arm pain: You may experience pain in your lower back buttocks thigh and calf if you have a lower back prolapse. • Herniated disc :You may also be experiencing pain in a portion of your foot. Your arm and shoulder will usually hurt the most if you have a herniated disc in your neck. When you cough sneeze or move into specific positions, this pain may shoot into your arm or leg. Sharp or burning pain is a common description of pain.
