In a herniated disk, the nucleus tissue which is
located in the center of the disk normally, is forced out of position.
If the disc moves in any direction except the direction in which the
nerves are, the pain is minimal. But, the spinal canal into which the
movement takes place has limited space, hence the herniated disc is
pressed against the spinal nerves.
This results in the symptoms of
numbness, pain or weakness in the lower back or leg. The herniated disc
is the cause of lower back pain, mid back pain and even pain in the back
of head. For more information on herniated disc in neck, read Exercise
