Spinal discs play a very important role in keeping the spine healthy. They provide the necessary cushioning between the vertebrae. They allow for the flexibility of the spine and keep the vertebrae from rubbing together. A herniated disc can be caused by both old age and injury. A disc becomes herniated when the nucleus of the disc pushes through its outer layer. Many times, discs can move from their proper position and individuals will experience no pain. Pain generally results from the compression of nerves by misplaced discs in the surrounding region. If you are experiencing any of the symptoms listed below, it is necessary to consult a doctor. There are many treatment options available.

The problems of a herniated disc include:

- Electric shock-like pain
- Tingling in arms or legs
- Numbness in arms or legs
- Muscle Weakness
- Bowel or bladder problems
- And more
