Disc Problems

Disc Problems

A slipped disc is when a soft cushion of tissue between the bones in your spine pushes out. It's painful if it presses on nerves.

A slipped disc (also called a prolapsed or herniated disc) can cause:

• lower back pain
• numbness or tingling in your shoulders, back, arms, hands, legs or feet
• neck pain
• problems bending or straightening your back
• muscle weakness,
• pain in the buttocks, hips or legs if the disc is pressing on the sciatic nerve.
