Herniated Discs - As people age, the outer rings of their discs weaken and may tear. The gel-like inner portion of a disc bulges outward, putting painful pressure on nearby nerves. This is commonly called a “slipped disc.” People who are obese, use improper lifting techniques or have bad posture are all at risk.
Slipped Vertebra - Joints or discs weaken and can no longer hold spine segments in place, causing one vertebra to slip over another. Shifted bones push against nerves, causing pain.
Disk Degeneration-Discs start out spongy, but lose water with age, becoming brittle. Weaken discs collapse under weight from above, causing vertebrae to scrape against each other.
Strains/Sprains - Sudden traumatic injuries or repetitive motions can stretch and tear muscles or ligaments. The damage may be accompanied by painful spasms and inflammation.
