This condition can result in severe pain and discomfort.When a disc’s inner core pushes through its outer layer, it can lead to herniated discs. This puts pressure on nearby nerves, resulting in symptoms like localized or radiating pain, numbness, tingling, and weakness in the affected area. Herniated discs can occur in various parts of the spine, but they are most frequently found in the lower back (lumbar spine) or neck (cervical spine).
