Hernias and Protrusions (Disc Diseases)

That lower back pain that’s keeping you from moving may not be ‘just tiredness’… It could be a hernia.

What are hernias and protrusions and why do they occur?

Herniated discs and protrusions occur when the intervertebral discs deteriorate or shift, compressing nearby nerves.

This may be caused by:

  • Repetitive movements or poor posture.
  • Wear or dehydration of the intervertebral discs.
  • Excessive strain from lifting weight using improper technique.

Common symptoms:

  • Lower back or neck pain that worsens when moving.
  • Tingling or weakness in the arms or legs.
  • Burning or electric shock sensation in the affected area.
  • Difficulty standing or sitting for long periods of time.

What happens if the hernia progresses?

  • It can cause a complete blockage of the back.
  • It can cause loss of strength in arms or legs.
  • In severe cases, it can affect bladder or bowel control.
  • It can significantly increase pain and tension in the body (in the back, arms, and legs).
  • It can reduce the ability to move.
  • You may need surgery.
