Disc injuries are always a major concern for people. Whenever someone injuries their back or neck, one of their first questions is “do you think it’s a disc?”.
The truth is that not all discs are perfect. However, that doesn’t mean they are of concern. Many people walk around with abnormal or slightly injured discs and they don’t even know it.
When we start talking about symptomatic and/or problematic disc issues, that is where we come in. The primary concern is whether or not that disc is pressing on a nerve or causing a narrowing of the canal that holds your spinal cord or nerves.
Correcting the function of the spine and strengthening the surrounding area can help decrease your pain, relieve nerve pressure, and help decrease the risk of further issues.
