Slipped disc is caused when a tear in the outer, fibrous ring of an inter-vertebral disc allows the soft, central portion to bulge out beyond the damaged outer rings. Symptoms differ depending on the location of the herniation and the types of soft tissue involved.

The doctor will examine the patient to ascertain the exact cause for the problem. And the ayurvedic treatment will be based on the underlying cause.

Common causes are

• Ageing
• Smoking
• Obesity
• Physically demanding jobs such as lifting heavy weights
• Incorrect Posture
• Accidents / Falls

SYMPTOMS AND SIGNS

• Pain in the upper or lower parts of the body depending on the location of the herniation.
• Numbness in parts of the hands/legs.
• Undefined pain that goes all the way to the hands/legs.
• Pain worsens at night.
• Muscular weakness in the hands/legs.
• A sensation of aching/burning in the affected area.
