What are the symptoms of a herniated disc in the spine cervcial? Somone please help ... I just had surgery on his lower back for herniated disks, I am at a very high risk for more in other areas of my spine. Will someone please tell me what are the symptoms of cervical disc herniations.
Hello,
As you know, the symptoms vary greatly depending on the position of the herniated disc and the size of the hernia.
If the herniated disc is pressing on a nerve, you may experience back pain with little or no pain. If the herniated disc is pressing on a nerve, there can be pain, numbness or weakness in the area of the body to which the nerve travels.
Typically, a herniated disc is preceded by an episode of back pain or a long history of intermittent episodes of back pain.
