After lower back or
the lumbar region of the spine, the next prominent area of bulging
disc is the neck. Bulging disc in neck is called a herniated disk of
neck. It is caused when the circular cushions between the cervical
spinal joints become dispositional out or bulge.
A herniated disk in the neck can be the
cause of many disorders or some sort of injury either instantaneous
or a slow-developing injury. The cervical spine in the area is made
of seven vertebrates and a lot of spinal nerves. The area is very
sensitive and a herniated disk can cause many complications in the
body. The vertebra bones of this area are smaller compared to the
other bones. When they bulge out, they have more sharp endings with
the possibility of hurting the nerves or the spines severely.
Here are some very
unique and lesser-seen complications of a herniated disk in neck:
The herniated disk in the cervical
region can cause your tongue to be paralyzed. There won't be any
sensation of hotness, coldness, or tastes. The problem can cause eye
disorder. The optic nerves pass through that area and this will show
symptoms in the eyes. The eyeballs seem to be replaced from normal
positions and there could be itching. The disorder of the spine can
also cause heavy coughing and the patient goes on coughing. The
sputum may block the air passage of the nose and the person finds
difficulty in breathing.
These are very rare and most
complicated signs of a herniated disc in the neck. Besides these, the
common symptoms would be there. You won't be able to move your head,
will experience sharp pain in the neck and shoulders and you may
suffer from mild fever.
