Frequently asked questions

Is a herniated disc serious?

In most cases, no. Many people without pain have herniations on their MRI. What matters is how you feel and how you respond to treatment.

Should I rest?

Bed rest is not recommended. Moving within tolerance helps you recover sooner.

When should I see a doctor?

If you have leg weakness, changes when passing urine, fever or pain after a hard fall or blow, see your doctor first.
