Disc Problems
About Disc Problem Services
Disc problems, such as herniated or bulging discs, occur when the cushioning discs between the vertebrae in your spine become damaged or displaced, leading to pain, discomfort, and restricted mobility. These issues can cause radiating pain, numbness, or weakness in the arms or legs if nerves are compressed. Left untreated, disc problems can significantly impact daily activities and overall quality of life. Our treatments focus on alleviating symptoms, restoring function, and preventing further complications, ensuring a holistic approach to spinal health and long-term recovery.
Conditions Treated for Disc Problems:
- Herniated discs (slipped or ruptured discs).
- Degenerative disc disease.
- Sciatica (nerve pain radiating from the lower back).
- Spinal stenosis (narrowing of the spinal canal).
