Stages of disc herniation… When should you visit a doctor?

The symptoms of herniated disc depend on how much the annulus fibrosus tear and how much it compresses the nerve. The common symptoms are pain on the back, numbness on the legs, and etc.

The severity of herniated disc can be classified into 4 stages.
- Bulging disc: the first stage where the disc’s shape and position have minor change which initiate pain.
- Protrusion disc: the bulging of the disc continues but it is still in the annulus fibrosus. Numbness on the legs happen from time to time.
- Extrusion disc: the soft jelly-like nucleus comes out through the rupture of tire-like wall, fibrosus. At this stage, the pain stays all the time
- Sequestration disc: the disc completely leaks out of annulus fibrosus. The stage is the most severe and too painful that the patient needs to receive a treatment.

If you are uncertain whether you have herniated disc or not, we recommend you to visit the doctor for a correct diagnosis and a treatment plan.

Isn’t it better if you could avoid surgery?

Spinal disorders are frequently found, however, not so many people know that they can avoid surgery by replacing surgical knife with a tiny needle. With the most advanced treatment technology, an efficiency of the treatment is pleasant. The procedure is low risk and it helps the patient recover fast as it takes only one night for hospitalization, resulting in a shorter time to get back on their normal activities.

There are 5 spinal disorders that can be treated without surgery
1. Herniated disc
2. Chronic pain on the neck or back
3. Facet joint syndrome
4. Osteoporosis
5. Spondylolisthesis

Diseases related to back pain can be prevented by exercising on core muscle or back regularly, avoiding to carry heavy objects, trying to lose weight if you are overweight, and avoiding bending the neck.

Spondylosis

It is the degeneration of vertebra, intervertebral disc, ligament, and back muscle which limit flexibility of the spine. These conditions are normally found in cervical spine and lumbar spine and in people with age over 35.

In the first stage of spondylosis, the patient may not experience any pain until the facet joint that connects between 2 vertebrae is degenerated and collapsed. Another cause of spondylosis is the bone spurs (osteophytes) as the body attempt to repair the degeneration and create bony projection that could compress nerve root. This also creates numbness on the legs in the same way herniated disc does.

If you cannot move normally and have numbness or weakness on the legs, you should meet the specialist to find the root cause and develop a treatment plan

Work from home (WFH)… be cautious!
Laying and working on your bed is comfortable but it is also harmful to your health.

The softer the bed is, the more damage it could cause to the muscles on your neck, shoulder, back, and buttock. The symptoms may not get severe right away but it will be worse gradually with age until it becomes chronic and causes nerve compression.

Herniated Nucleus Pulposus (HNP)

The cause of HNP are the bulging of jelly-like nucleus and compression of spinal cord or spinal nerve root resulting in back pain

The patient may not have back pain but numbness could appear widely on the legs such as numbness from outer thigh to outer ankle, but not on the inner legs, which is different from Piriformis Syndrome that numbness spreads all over the leg.

The symptoms of HNP are as followings:
- Severe back pain that limits your movement (in spinal cord compression)
- Pain during coughing, sneezing, or bowel movement
- Cannot bend the back
- Numbness on the legs
- Back pain radiated into one side or to both legs
- Some people may only have numbness and it gets more intense during a bowel movement
- Some people may only have pain in the legs or heaviness in muscles which does not improve with massage.
- If the symptoms stay for a long time, it could cause leg weakness, tiredness, and difficult to balance
- Muscle atrophy around the area that the nerve is compressed
- Intense pain when pressing directly to the spine
