What Is a Herniated Disc?

A herniated disc, sometimes called a slipped or ruptured disc, occurs when the soft inner portion of a spinal disc pushes through a crack or tear in the outer shell. This can result in compression of nearby nerves, leading to pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the neck, lower back, arms, or legs. One of the most common symptoms is sciatica, which often radiates down one leg from the lower back.

How Does It Happen?

Herniated discs can result from various causes, including:

Sometimes a disc can herniate from something as simple as bending over or twisting while lifting a light object. Over time, spinal wear-and-tear increases vulnerability, especially if proper spinal support and mobility are lacking.

At-Home Tips to Support Healing

These actions may help reduce discomfort and protect the spine while seeking further care.

Why Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) Is So Effective

Non-Surgical Spinal Decompression (NSSD) is a specialized, FDA-cleared treatment designed to relieve pressure on spinal discs and nerves. At The Spinal Decompression & Chiropractic Center of San Diego, only DRX9000 spinal decompression machines are used—the gold standard in the industry.

Backed by studies from Stanford, Johns Hopkins, Duke Medical Center, and Mayo Clinic, the DRX9000 has shown measurable results, including reductions in disc herniations on MRI and improvements in disc height.
