WORLD SPINE DAY: Great post by @adammeakins SLIPPED DISCS . Having back pain and being told you have a slipped disc can be scary as hell!... . But the term is nonsense as discs don’t actually ‘slip’ as they are firmly anchored to your vertebrae. . What actually happens is discs ‘bulge’ (medically described as herniated) from time to time due to many various factors! . However, just like other things that bulge in us from time to time they all tend to go down eventually... (keep it clean now) . I often describe a bulging disc a bit like a bulging belly we can get when we’ve been on that all inclusive holiday stuffing our faces with the good stuff 24/7! . When you gain weight and ‘bulge’ quickly you soon start to look and feel awful, this the same when a disc bulges quickly! . However, the good news is with some time, patience, and dedication to some lifestyle changes, and of course some good ol’ fashioned exercise you can get rid of that ‘bulge’ be it in a stomach or a lumbar disc! . Lots of research has shown a high rate of disc bulges reduce over time if people are encouraged to move and focus on other lifestyle factors. . So don’t let a disc bulge put you off from moving or think that it will last forever! No bulge should ever be permanent... (and you have a filthy mind ) . Stay tuned for more my doctor says! . #MyDoctorSays #SlippedDisc #BackPain #MRI #physio #physiotherapist #physiotherapy #physicaltherapy #sportsphysio #thesportsphysio #sportsphysiotherapy #trainer #personaltrainer #coach #strengthcoach #osteo #osteopath #osteopathy #chiro #chiropractic #chiropractor #sportstherapy #rehab #rehabtherapy #dptstudent #shouldercomplex #cantgowronggettingstrong #worldspineday .
