What is Disc Prolapse
The spinal column consists of multiple blocks of bones called vertebral bodies.
www.chennaibrainandspine.com
Between the vertebral bodies lies the disc. These discs are like rubber washers and allow movement of the spinal column. The disc contains jelly-like material surrounded by a fibrous ring.
www.chennaibrainandspine.com
When the fibrous ring becomes diseased due to injury or any other condition then the jelly like substance is pushed out or prolapses into the spinal canal and causes pressure on the spinal cord and its accompanying nerve roots.Â
