What is a T1-T2 disc herniation?
A T1-T2 disc herniation is a herniation that happens in the middle or lower back. This will cause extreme pain and possible numbness in the limbs.
What does herniation of a vertebral disc involve?
When a disc herniates, the jellylike substance pushes through and causes the harder outer ring (annulus fibrosus) to compress a nerve root in the spinal cord. Herniation of a vertebral disc can cause varying degrees of pain
What is the association of disc herniation and sciatica?
Lumbar disc hernias are commonly associated with sciatica (inflammation of the sciatic nerve in the lower back) due to disc protrusion or herniation that compresses the spinal nerve root radiating to the femoral or sciatic nerve.
What does a small left paracentral disc herniation mean and how serious is it?
A disc herniation can be serious because it can cause severe pain and loss of feeling in your arms and legs. This kind of herniation basically means the rubbery cushion between the bones has moved out of its proper place.

I do know that this can cause a great deal of pain in the shoulder and arm, compression means that it is on the spinal cord. I think I would consider surgery.
What happens in disc herniation?
The bulging disc or its fragments may be displaced outward, putting pressure on nerve roots entering or exiting the spine and thereby causing pain.
Can L5 S1 disk herniation cause pain in the bladder or prostate area also extending into urethra?
A herniated L5-S1 disc can cause symptoms that radiate into the buttocks and legs, but it typically does not directly cause pain in the bladder or prostate area or extend into the urethra. It's more likely that symptoms related to the bladder, prostate, or urethra may be due to other factors unrelated to the disc herniation. If you are experiencing these symptoms, it's important to consult a healthcare provider for proper evaluation and diagnosis.

What are the symptoms for an L2-3 disk protrusion?
For a bit of background, a spinal disc herniation is a condition in which the vertebrae/discs bulge or distend beyond its usual anatomical position. Many people refer to a spinal herniation as a "slipped disc", while in fact this is not true. A spinal disc cannot simply 'slip' out of position unless very severe trauma is involved.The term 'posterior' is a medical term meaning 'backwards'. In this context, it means the spinal disc has slipped backwards from the normal location.A spinal disc herniation can be caused by many different reasons including:- Trauma (car crash, blunt force)- Physical strain (from lifting weights, excessive weight-lifting)- Spontaneously (no known medical cause)It is also possible for a tumour to force a disc out of position.Signs and symptoms of a posterior disc herniation include:- Pain, especially when moving in the opposite direction of the slip (i.e. leaning forward).- Neck and low back pain (may be mild or severe, depending on the cause and nature of the injury).- Pain in "random" locations (thigh, leg, arm etc) caused by the spinal disc pressing on nerves that are connected to a particular area of the body.- Pain in the buttocks may be common as the sciatic nerve is often affected by the disc affecting nearby nerves.NB: To differentiate between other conditions, a spinal disc herniation often causes pain that is aggravated by movement and is usually continuous. Pulsating pain or on-and-off pain is most likely caused by a muscular condition as opposed to a disc herniation.Any changes in your health, including pain should be reported to your medical doctor or healthcare practitioner. If you experience the worse pain in your life, or if the pain was caused by trauma, avoid any movement and call for an emergency ambulance. The risk of spinal injury needs to be evaluated in this case.
What is a midline posterior disc herniation at t7-t8?
A midline posterior disc herniation at the T7-T8 level refers to a condition where the intervertebral disc between the seventh and eighth thoracic vertebrae bulges or protrudes towards the back (posterior) and center (midline) of the spine. This herniation can compress nearby spinal nerves or the spinal cord, potentially leading to symptoms such as back pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the upper body. Treatment options may include physical therapy, pain management, or, in severe cases, surgical intervention.
