USUALLY (note the caps) a herniated disk will retract on its own, releasing pressure on the nerve, and the pain will disappear. this happens about 70% of the time. The disk will then scar in place, and you should not be bothered again. Occasionally a numb area (where the nerve went) will remain after healing.
