Conquering Lumbar Herniated Disc: Your Path to Relief
A lumbar herniated disc is a common condition that occurs when the inner gel-like core of a disc in the lower back (lumbar spine) bulges or ruptures through the outer layer of the disc. This can lead to pain, numbness, and weakness in the lower back, buttocks, and legs. In this guide, we'll explore lumbar herniated discs, including their causes, symptoms, diagnosis, and the role of physical therapy in managing this condition effectively.
