Have a Disc Herniation? You May Want to Read this...

Have you been told you have a disc herniation? Don’t press the panic button just yet. There’s good news:

1. Most disc injuries heal on their own, with time.

2. A large percentage of healthy, pain free individuals also have signs of disc changes. This is often a normal finding.

3. Most low back pain (and disc injuries) can be managed without surgery or expensive procedures.

If you need help, seek care from a health care professional(s) that will help you keep moving, get stronger, and back to the activities you love.

Physical Therapists can often help you manage your low back pain, and in certain situations, refer you to the appropriate healthcare provider if your symptoms are more significant.
