Minimally Invasive Treatment of Back Pain Caused by Disc Herniation |

The spinal disc is a soft cushion that sits between each vertabrae of the spine. This spinal disc becomes more rigid with age. In a young individual, the disc is soft and elastic, but like so many other structures in the body, the disc gradually looses its elasticity and is more vulnerable to injury. In fact, even in individuals as young as 30, MRIs show evidence of disc deterioration in about 30% of people.

Unfortunately pain symptoms are often ignored and when it is identified, undertreated. Download the Chronic Pain is Undertreated pdf here. |
