In between the vertebrae, rubbery discs cushion, separate, and support this delicate structure that is your spinal column. When a disc slips out of place or becomes inflamed, it can pinch or press against the nerves, sending a painful signal to the brain. A disc can herniate when you stretch or move the wrong way, lift heavy objects with improper form, experience a car accident, or simply as you age. Regardless of the cause, a herniated disc can be very painful should not have to be endured in the long term.
