Treatment of herniated disc

Clinic Services / Herniated Disc Treatment

A herniated disc, also known as a slipped disc or mobile disc, occurs when the soft central part (nucleus pulposus) of an intervertebral disc pushes through a tear or split in the tough outer layer (annulus fibrosus). This may press on nearby nerves, causing pain, numbness, or weakness, particularly in the back, legs, or arms, depending on the location of the herniation.
