The discs in your spine act as shock absorbers between your vertebrae. When one of these discs becomes herniated or slips out of place, it can compress nearby nerves, leading to inflammation, numbness, and persistent back pain. Sometimes the pain even radiates down the legs, a condition known as sciatica.
Daily activities like lifting, twisting, or sitting for long periods can trigger or worsen disc issues. Whether your back pain came on suddenly or developed over time, our chiropractic team can help identify the cause and develop a plan to correct it.
