How To Know If You Are Experiencing Disc Herniation

Herniated discs can be extremely painful. You may injury your back and may not even realize it until it's too late. Self-diagnosis is often not as accurate as many people believe and may lead to further injury if you don't seek proper treatment. Instead of trying to treat yourself, speak to one of our expert chiropractors at Accident & Injury Chiropractic in Tacoma and see if disc herniation is a possibility.
 

What to Look For

Several symptoms point directly to disc herniation. Pain that radiates along your arms and legs, numbness and tingling, and muscle weakness are all signs of a herniated disc. You may also experience chronic pain that comes and goes depending on how you move or sit. Stretching may help, but will not completely take the pain away.
