Symptoms of a Herniated Disc

Dr. Timothy Kuklo, a spine surgeon, explains the typical symptoms associated with a herniated disc.

If the herniation is in your low back (lumbar spine), you’ll have low back pain. (Dr. Kuklo focuses on low back disc herniations, although you can also herniate or rupture a disc in your neck, which is called your cervical spine.) A herniated disc can also cause pain in your legs, in addition to other leg symptoms, such as numbness or tingling.
