We offer personalized treatment to relieve herniated disc symptoms and help you live without back pain.
Telehealth appointments are available.
Your spine is made up of bones in your back, called vertebrae. Between these bones are soft structures, called discs, which are considered the cushions for your back. These discs are surrounded by a tough outer layer and act like shock absorbers for your bones. Sometimes, these discs can get pushed out from their normal place by an injury or through gradual age-related wear and tear. This is called a herniated disc or slipped/ruptured disc.
A herniated disc can put pressure on your spinal nerves. Depending on the size and location of the herniated disc, your symptoms may vary. A herniated disc in your lower back could aggravate your sciatic nerve, causing pain and numbness from your lower back to the bottom of your leg. A herniated disc in your neck can cause neck or shoulder pain, or pain or numbness in your shoulders, arm and hand.
We offer many treatments for herniated discs — from nonsurgical approaches, like physical therapy, medication and injections, to a variety of surgical interventions, including minimally invasive surgery and fusions. Your doctor will discuss all your options to help you decide what’s right for you.
