What is a Disc Prolapse / Herniation / Slipped Disc?

Although a prolapsed disc is sometimes called a slipped disc, your disc cannot "slip" anywhere, so don't panic. Consider your discs as shock absorbers situated in between your spine's vertebrae. In reality, a microscopic fissure in the fibrous disc wall allows the thick, gel-like nucleus at the center of the disc to protrude. As a result, this little nucleus bulge may irritate and compress the nerve root, producing pain that may go down the leg. Disc prolapse comes in a variety of forms and severity, as the diagram below illustrates.

Diagnosis of a Disc Prolapse

Physiotherapists can evaluate and diagnose a prolapsed disc. A physiotherapist can learn about your symptoms, job and social background, medical history, and physical examination during a consultation. Depending on your symptoms, you might need to get sent for an MRI or a surgical specialist consultation. Your physiotherapist will go over this in detail with you if it is necessary.
