Understanding Slipped / Herniated Discs
Herniated discs may cause sharp or radiating pain, tingling, numbness, or weakness in the affected area. Activities such as bending, lifting, or sitting for extended periods can worsen symptoms. Without proper care, herniated discs can limit mobility, interfere with daily tasks, and affect overall quality of life.
Common Contributors
Slipped or herniated discs can develop due to:
- Poor posture or prolonged sitting
- Repetitive lifting, twisting, or bending motions
- Weak core or back muscles
- Degenerative changes in spinal discs
- Previous spinal injuries or trauma
Athletes, office workers, and physically active individuals are especially susceptible due to repetitive strain or insufficient spinal support.
Symptoms and Daily Impact
Typical symptoms include:
- Localized back or neck pain
- Radiating pain, numbness, or tingling in arms or legs
- Muscle weakness in the extremities
- Reduced flexibility and range of motion
Herniated discs can interfere with work, exercise, sleep, and daily activities—often causing compensation patterns that increase stress on surrounding muscles and joints.

- Physical therapy exercises to strengthen the core and support spinal stability
