Yes, a herniated disc can cause bowel or bladder problems. If you are experiencing the inability to control your bladder or bowel movements you need to seek medical care immediately! This can be caused by a herniated disk where it is compressing the specific nerve roots that control these functions and can cause serious damage and paralysis if not treated immediately!
