Understanding Disc Injuries: Symptoms and Causes
Intervertebral discs are the spinal column’s shock absorbers, positioned between your vertebrae, featuring a tough outer layer (annulus fibrosus) and a soft, gel-like center (nucleus pulposus). These discs allow for mobility and act as cushions between your bones. When these discs are damaged, whether through degeneration, trauma, or poor posture, it can lead to conditions such as:
- Protruding Discs: Asymmetrical bulging of the disc without rupture.
- Herniated Discs: Rupture of the disc, allowing the gel to push outward.
- Disc Extrusion: Severe form where the gel breaks away or bulges extensively.
These conditions can result in back pain, neck pain, numbness, limited range of motion, and sciatica. Symptoms might include:
- Consistent back or neck pain
- Pain radiating to the arms or legs
- Numbness or tingling in extremities
- Weakness in legs or feet
- Difficulty standing or walking
- Loss of bladder or bowel control in severe cases
It’s crucial to address these symptoms promptly to prevent further damage and ensure a proper recovery.
