What Is a Herniated Disc?

A herniated disc, sometimes called a slipped or ruptured disc, occurs when the inner gel-like material of a spinal disc pushes through its tough outer layer. This can press against nearby nerves, leading to pain, tingling, or weakness—most commonly in the lower back or neck.

Symptoms May Include:

  • Sharp or burning back pain
  • Radiating pain in the legs (sciatica) or arms
  • Numbness or pins-and-needles sensations
  • Muscle weakness or coordination issues
  • Discomfort that worsens with certain movements

Our team works to relieve your pain and protect your spine using the least invasive methods possible.

Common Causes of Disc Herniation

Herniated discs can result from a single event or develop over time. Contributing factors include:

  • Aging and disc degeneration
  • Heavy lifting or poor body mechanics
  • Repetitive strain from work or sports
  • Motor vehicle accidents or sudden trauma
  • Obesity and poor posture

Our Newburgh specialists treat patients from all walks of life—including active adults, laborers, commuters, and older adults seeking lasting relief.

Diagnosing a Herniated Disc in Newburgh

Your evaluation begins with a detailed exam, where we assess your mobility, nerve function, and pain pattern. If imaging is needed, we’ll coordinate referrals for:

  • MRI scans to evaluate soft tissues and nerves
  • X-rays or CT scans for bone alignment
  • EMG testing for complex nerve-related symptoms

Once your diagnosis is confirmed, we’ll create a treatment plan tailored to your goals and lifestyle.
