Recover Spine + Sport: Lumbar Disc Herniation

Key Facts About a Lumbar Disc Herniation:

  • Most people have disc herniations, they only hurt when the disc starts to protrude onto the nerves

  • Disc herniations are a tearing of the outer tough fibers and a leakage from the internal jelly-like substance of the disc onto the nerves and spinal cord

  • Disc herniations take anywhere from 18-24 months to heal by themselves, and often they do not heal on their own

  • Disc herniations are the number one reason for spinal surgery in the U.S.

  • VICTORIA G.

    “

    I had never heard of regenerative medicine before coming to Recover Spine & Sport. I had lost hope that my hip and knee injuries would ever get better, and I sought out Recover because I didn’t want surgery. Now my knees and hip are fixed, and I can hike and have fun again with my kids.
