Causes of Herniated Discs
A herniated disc may develop from a single injury or from gradual wear and tear. Common risk factors include:
- Age-related disc degeneration
- Improper lifting or bending
- High-impact injuries (falls, accidents)
- Sedentary lifestyle or poor posture
- Obesity or repetitive strain
- Sports or job-related stress on the spine
If your back pain began after a trauma or has gradually worsened over time, it’s important to get an expert evaluation.
