A Prolapsed or Herniated Disc in the spine is a condition in which a nucleus (spongy material) is displaced from its space and bulges out. It is a spongy cushion that supports the spine by acting as a shock-absorbing material. It is the most common cause of back pain.
A Herniated Disc presses the spinal cord's nerves, thus giving a stinging, pain-like sensation. It may cause pain, numbness, and weakness in the back, arms, neck, and legs. Some of the symptoms can be severe and can cause disturbance in your life.
