Types of Lumbar Disc Injuries, Texas
There are many types of Lumbar Disc Injuries, Texas, and as I mentioned
earlier, people call them funny names like slipped disc or blown disc.
Herniated Lumbar Disc Injury, Texas
With this type of injury, the outer shell of
the lumbar disc called the annulus sprains and eventually gets a small tear in
it. The inner portion of the disc called the nucleus is then able to move out
through the tear.
Prolapsed or “Bulging” Lumbar Disc Injury, Texas
Unlike the herniated lumbar disc injury, with
a prolapsed lumbar disc injury, the outer wall of the disc (the annulus) is
still intact. Don’t assume that a lumbar disc prolapse is the cause of your
lumbar pain.
Degenerative Disc Injury, Texas
All of us will have degenerative disc injuries
at some point in our life. Degenerative is just a fancy word for aging. Worry
about degeneration of the lumbar discs as much as you worry
about your hair going grey, which I hope is not much at all!
