Chiropractor in Oviedo, FL-Dr. Ressler has relieved herniated disc pain for hundreds of patients!
What is a herniated disc? A herniated disc, also referred to as a “slipped disc” is a term used when the discs in your spine “slip” from their correct position. The position of your discs is important because they provide a cushion between each vertebra. This cushion maintains spacing between the spinal bones. This prevents the bones from scraping against each other and pinching the nerve endings. When the discs become herniated or protrude between the vertebrae it rubs against your nerves and irritates your nerve endings which causes pain.
Most of the time patients complain of herniated discs in their lower back. However, patients can also suffer from herniated discs in their neck. Symptoms will vary depending on the location of the injury. If the herniation is in your low back, you will most likely feel radiating pain down your legs. If the herniation is in your neck you may feel pain with numbness and tingling from your shoulder down your arms. Certain movements such as a sneeze or cough may cause the pain to worsen. Therefore, it is so important to see Dr. Ressler, chiropractor in Oviedo, so that your injury is accurately diagnosed. Based on this diagnosis, a comprehensive treatment plan can be implemented.
If you have been involved in an auto accident or sustained a sports injury, you may require an MRI to detect the herniated disc. Dr. Ressler, Oviedo chiropractor will use the findings from your MRI to ensure you receive the care you need to remove the pressure off the nerve and relieve your pain.
