Disc herniation is a collective term that includes a disc protrusion and disc extrusion. A disc protrusion is described as a local or focal area of a disc (less than 25% of the disc) that has extended beyond where the disc usually sits.<\/p>\n<p><b>Symptoms<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Symptoms of a disc protrusion may include:<\/p>\n<ul>\n<li>Local pain at the site of disc protrusion.<\/li>\n<li>Radiating pain down the arm or leg.<\/li>\n<li>Pain that is worse with sitting, lifting, and bending.<\/li>\n<li>Pain that increases from a sitting to a standing position.<\/li>\n<li>Constant pain made worse by certain movements.<\/li>\n<\/ul>\n<p><b>Treatment<\/b><\/p>\n<p>Treatment of a disc protrusion depends on many factors such as the location, severity, and nature of the disc protrusion. If a disc protrusion causes compression or irritation to a nerve, this may also change the treatment approach. All treatments are individualised to each unique case.
