Herniated Discs: A Guide
Back pain can be an indicator to a whole slew of different diagnoses - some more mild than others - but there’s often a list of common causes and problems for developed back pain. One of these terms that pop up on nearly every broad search for pain in the back is a herniated disc. Also known as a ruptured disc, sometimes termed a slipped disc, and usually confused with a bulging disc, a herniated disc can often be the culprit of back pain due to its dealings with the nerves surrounding the spinal discs.
