What are Herniated Discs?

Symptoms
Symptoms of a herniated disc vary depending on the location of the disc and the severity of the rupture. Some herniated discs cause no symptoms, and a person with this type of injury may not realize the disc is damaged. But a herniated disc can also cause severe pain, numbness or tingling, and weakness. Most herniated discs occur in the lower back, where they can cause symptoms in the buttocks, legs and feet. Herniated discs also occur in the neck, where they can cause symptoms in the shoulders, arms and hands.Causes
A herniated disc is a common injury that can affect any part of the spine. A herniated disc can cause severe pain and other problems in the arms or legs.Potential Treatments
Treatment options for herniated disc depend on the location and severity of the injury. A herniated disc may be treated with pain-relieving medications, muscle relaxers and corticosteroid injections. A person with a herniated disc may benefit from physical therapy. If these methods are not effective, the disc may need to be treated with a surgical procedure.Testimonials
I had an excellent experience with Dr. Crane! He help me identify my pain and then strategize how I could improve my situation through exercise. It worked. It’s not often you meet a doctor that helps you help yourself and Dr. Crane was that kind of doctor. He is patient, focused, and trustworthy.

Dr. Crane is awesome! He has a fabulous staff and he has a great bedside manner. I have sent some of my friends to him for their spine issues and they have been pleased with his work also. Highly recommend Dr. CRANE!!

Dr Crane fused my back in 2016. No problem with my surgery but I was still in pain. He took the time and energy to find my problem. Which was a broken replacement hip. Got me to a wonderful doctor. Talked to the hip doctor and got me ready for another surgery. He went far beyond his duty to keep me from any pain. To me he is the perfect doctor. 5 years pain free
