Lower back pain is generally non-specific in nature, but the intervertebral disc can be attributed to some back pain. People with back pain are frequently discouraged when they are told they have disc problems and feel like they cannot do anything about things like “degenerative disc disease,” “disc herniations,” and “disc bulges.” This resource provides information for clinicians and people with back pain interested in optimal loading for the intervertebral disc.
