Understanding Herniated Discs:

A herniated disc, also known as a slipped or ruptured disc, occurs when the soft inner material of a spinal disc protrudes through the tough outer layer. This can lead to compression of nearby nerves, resulting in various symptoms. Common aspects of herniated discs include:

1. Localized Back Pain: Pain in the affected area of the spine, often intensified by movements like bending or twisting.

2. Radiating Pain: Pain that radiates down the leg (sciatica) or arm, depending on the location of the herniated disc.

3. Numbness or Tingling: Sensations of numbness or tingling in the limbs due to nerve compression.

4. Muscle Weakness: Weakness in specific muscle groups associated with the affected nerves.
