A herniated disc is a type of spinal injury (backbone). The spine comprises a series of bones (vertebrae) that go from the base of your skull to the bottom of your buttocks. Disks are circular cushions that are placed between your vertebrae. The discs between your bones act as shock absorbers, allowing you to bend and move freely. If one of these discs tears or leaks, the condition is known as a herniated disc. Every year, roughly 2% of the population suffers from a herniated disc. Herniated discs commonly cause pain in the neck, arm, back, and legs (sciatica). Herniated discs can happen anywhere along the spine, but they are most frequent in the lower back or neck. It is unusual to have a disc herniation in the middle of the back. Medfine Hospitals offers the best-herniated disc treatment in Bangalore if you’re looking for a herniated disc specialist.
