Disc Disease FAQs
Exploring Common Questions and Answers About Disc Disease.
What is a disc protrusion?
A disc protrusion occurs when the outer layer of a spinal disc weakens, allowing the inner gel-like material to bulge outward. This can put pressure on nearby nerves, causing pain and other symptoms.
Will chiropractic hurt my disc herniation?
We believe certain chiropractic methods may hurt rather than help disc herniations. That’s why our techniques are meticulously adapted for disc issues. Our disc-specific protocols promote healing while avoiding any risky maneuvers that could exacerbate the condition.
Is my disc causing my shooting pain down the back of my leg?
The shooting leg pain you’re experiencing could very likely be caused by a protruding disc pressing on the sciatic nerve. This radiating pain down the back of the leg is a telltale sign of sciatica from a herniated lumbar disc.
Can we reverse a disc protrusion?
While chiropractic maintains spinal alignment, our decompression protocols can suction protruding discs back toward their center, though likely not a complete reversal. However, we have seen millimeters of protrusion reduction through this therapy, alleviating symptoms and preventing further progression.
