Disc Prolapse: Symptoms and Treatment

Disc Prolapse (spinal disc herniation, intervertebral hernia, intervertebral hernia) is a bulging of the nucleus of an intervertebral disc into the spinal canal after the integrity of the fibrous ring (the outer part of the disc) is compromised.

Disc Prolapse (slipped disc) is a widespread medical problem that impairs a patient's quality of life and is a dangerous disease. Despite this patients are afraid of the surgery do not go to doctor. But more often than not with timely treatment, it is enough to use modern methods of non-surgical therapy.

Classification

Disc Prolapse are distinguished according to the concentration of the lesion and the degree of clinical manifestation

Disc Prolapse by localization:

Depending on the size:

According to the development mechanism hernias can be:

Causation of disease

It's time to take care of your spine, find the cause of your back pain and restore physiological harmony. This diagnosis is not a reason to panic, but you should not consider it an insignificant thing to overlook either.

The basis of successful treatment of intervertebral hernias is the restoration of mobility in all segments of the spine, especially with pathological changes. In this case, we recommend the use of the Super Inductive System, an innovative technology of high-intensity magnetotherapy, which we have used since the first days of its existence and has virtually no contraindications.

There are three main causes of intervertebral hernia:

The last cause of the pathological process is an unavoidable consequence of upright posture that puts constant strain on the spine. Other negative factors affecting the condition of the cartilage rings of the discs are: poor diet, insufficient intake of vitamins and minerals (or their poor absorption), lack of activity (passive lifestyle).

Pathogenesis

Intervertebral hernia formation can be divided into 3 stages:

Clinical signs

Each stage of the disease has its own signs of an intervertebral hernia. Also, an intervertebral hernia can manifest itself differently depending on the concentration of protrusion, size, and the force of pressure on the spinal nerve roots. The incipient intervertebral hernia in all cases manifests itself in the same way - a nagging pain that intensifies with sudden movements, coughing, and physical exertion.

Symptoms

Symptoms of intervertebral hernia of the neck and chest:

Symptoms of lumbar intervertebral hernia:

Disease progress during the pregnancy

Intervertebral hernia is not a contraindication to pregnancy. But, it can significantly affect the health of the future mother and the difficulty of carrying it to term. To get the most useful advice and counseling on the peculiarities of pregnancy with an intervertebral hernia, you should contact a specialized doctor when planning pregnancy and take all necessary measures to minimize problems during pregnancy, including the use of physiotherapeutic methods of treatment.

Peculiarities of the disease in children

Intervertebral hernia in a child most often occurs due to illiterate distribution of physical loads. For example, leading a predominantly sedentary lifestyle, the child goes to school, sports club, etc., begins to play sports. In this case, there is the maximum overstrain, after which it can form a hernia. Trauma of the spine may also be the cause. Risk category - children from 10 to 15 years (age when the body is developing rapidly and the muscle corset is not formed). In children of earlier age, the disease is rare.

Complications

The main danger of the disease is damage to the spinal cord and nerve endings. In its advanced stages, an intervertebral hernia can impair skin sensation and physiological limb mobility, as well as provoke paralysis. Also, a large hernia can provoke paresis of the foot, block the canal of the spinal column, squeeze the nerves passing through it (in this case you cannot do without surgery). But these are all consequences of intervertebral hernia, which can be avoided by timely use of modern diagnostics and complete treatment: in the early stages treatment is possible without surgery, by means of medication and physiotherapy.

Diagnosis

Self-diagnosis of intervertebral hernia is impossible. Only a physician can determine whether it is present or there is another problem with similar symptoms after a complete examination of the patient with complaints.

Diagnosis of intervertebral hernia includes: physical examination of the patient, study of the history of the disease, the presence of concomitant health problems and a number of examinations - MRI, CT scan, myelography with contrast. X-rays are not indicative because they do not detect intervertebral hernias.

The main criteria for the primary diagnosis:

The doctor's initial task is to differentiate hernia from other medical problems. Among them: osteochondrosis, spondyloarthritis, myositis, etc.

Treatment

Hernia Treatment

The diagnosis «intervertebral hernia» is not a reason to panic, but you should not delay with the treatment of the disease. It is necessary to eliminate the problem at a stage when it can be done without surgical intervention. At the Center for Brain Stimulation treatment of intervertebral hernia in 90 % of cases occurs without surgical intervention. This is possible due to our approach, which provides:

The duration of therapy is individual for each case and depends on the neglect of the disease, and the general condition of the patient.

Our clinic uses the Super Inductive System for the treatment of hernias, a new technology of high-intensity magnetic therapy. Procedures on this device have practically no contraindications, and the first result is felt after the first session. This physiotherapeutic method is the most effective in the fight against hernias without surgery. At the same time, it can be used at any stage of the pain syndrome for its relief according to different theories of pain control.

Undergoing treatment for an intervertebral hernia at the Center for Brain Stimulation will help to:

Preventive Measures

The most effective prevention of intervertebral hernia is to ensure adequate function of each vertebral segment and to eliminate factors predisposing to the occurrence of the disease.

Secondary prevention of hernia:

Also, it’s better avoid:

Q & A

What medications are used in the treatment of intervertebral hernia?

Treatment of intervertebral hernia should only be carried out by a qualified doctor. As a rule, medications that have no side effects on the digestive tract and nonsteroidal anti-inflammatory drugs (NSAIDs) are prescribed for the pathology. They help to relieve inflammation, reduce pain. High-intensity magnetic therapy and phonophoresis are also part of the complex treatment.

What kind of spinal hernias are considered large?

The size of the formed herniated spine depends on the department in which it arose. For example, for the cervical spine hernia is considered large if it has reached a size of 5-6 mm. And for the lumbar spine, a herniated disc measuring 9-12 mm would be large. Proper measurement helps to determine which method of treatment should be used - surgical or medical.

What can't be done with an intervertebral hernia?

In the acute stage of intervertebral hernia, massage and visits to the baths are categorically contraindicated. Doctors do not recommend staying in the sun for a long time and exercising on the horizontal bar. The patient should avoid static prolonged body positions and avoid hypothermia. Uncontrolled lifting of weights should not be allowed. If it is necessary to carry a bag, it should be done without sudden movements. Patients with intervertebral hernia are shown massage during rehabilitation after the disease.

Is it necessary to do surgery for intervertebral hernia?

Every person with intervertebral hernia can avoid surgery if he begins timely treatment. At the first manifestations of symptoms of pathology, it is imperative to seek advice from a neurosurgeon. Professional and qualified diagnosis allows you to get rid of the disease with the help of physical therapy methods of treatment.

What is the best way to sleep with a herniated spine?

A person in sleep cannot control the posture, and the movement of the vertebrae in a herniated disc leads to pain syndrome and, accordingly, sleep disturbance. That is why specialists recommend their patients to sleep with their legs slightly elevated with the help of pillows. It is possible to reduce the load on the back by aligning the spine with the pillows.

Лікування міжхребцевої грижі

У мами дуже боліла спина вже давно. Мама пробувала різні народні методи, але нічого не допомагало. Різкий біль при поворотах, нахилятися взагалі стало неможливо. Давався взнаки вік, утворилася міжхребцева грижа. Без операції не обійшлося. Нейрохірург Корнійчук Сергій Олександрович вів мою маму і консультував і робив операцію. Я дуже вдячна за вашу роботу і ставлення до літніх людей!

Лечение межпозвоночной грыжи

Мой муж стал жаловаться на радикулит. Говорит, боль с такими прострелами, что невозможно пошевелиться. Решили обратиться в Центр стимуляции мозга. Проконсультировались у невролога и хирурга. Прошли несколько сеансов фонофореза, плюс таблетки, потом лечебная физкультура. В клинике очень современная аппаратура и хорошие врачи. Очень помогли!

Лечение межпозвоночной грыжи

У меня диагностировали протрузию в шейном отделе. Очень больно поворачивать голову и наклонять, иногда даже немели руки. Проходила лечение я в Центре Стимуляции Мозга. Мне замечательно обезболили, вправили диск, от этого востановилась чувствительность рук. Дали рекомендации, как не допустить в дальнейшем подобной ситуации.

Лечение межпозвоночной грыжи

У меня часто вылетают позвонки в грудном отделе и инодга начинают неметь ладони или появляется опоясывающий спазм в области грудной клетки. Нужна была консультация хорошего врача как этого избежать, поскольку и ребенок маленький, которого часто приходиться поднимать, а он уже 20 кг весит. И работа сидячая, и зарядку делать лень))) Спасибо Корнийчуку Сергею за составленный курс, действуя по которому есть вероятность избавиться от этого. Ну и конечно массаж, фитнес и проч. в качестве допнагрузки))
