The discs in our spine are surprisingly tough \u2013 there\u2019s a lot of fear out there today that as soon as we injure a disc, it\u2019s \u201cgame over.\u201d That simply is not true. In fact, our discs are strong, adaptable structures that heal similarly to our bones and muscles.<\/p>\n
When a disc tears, you might experience pain ranging from mild to severe. Some people have tears, but don\u2019t feel any symptoms and only realize it years after it happened!<\/p>\n
Discs have a tough outer layer, and a jelly-like inner layer. That outer layer can tear from traumatic injuries or everyday movement \u2013 usually it\u2019s repetitive stress that wears it down! Sometimes it’s tricky to tell the difference between a disc tear and other injuries, but that\u2019s where we at Orthobiologics Associates <\/span>come in!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_button button_url=”\/contact-us” button_text=”Contact the Experts” _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”8px|30px|8px|30px|true|true” custom_padding_tablet=”7px|25px|7px|25px|true|true” custom_padding_phone=”6px|15px|6px|15px|true|true” custom_padding_last_edited=”on|tablet” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_button][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”2_5″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}” custom_css_main_element_last_edited=”on|tablet” custom_css_main_element_tablet=”margin-top:0px;” custom_css_main_element_phone=”margin-top:0px;”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/orthobiologicsassociates.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/degenerative-disc-disease.png” alt=”Hips Pain” title_text=”degenerative disc disease” align=”right” _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” hover_transition_duration=”700ms” hover_transition_speed_curve=”ease-in-out” border_radii=”on|2px|2px|2px|2px” global_colors_info=”{}” box_shadow_horizontal__hover=”6px” box_shadow_horizontal__hover_enabled=”on|hover” box_shadow_vertical__hover=”6px” box_shadow_vertical__hover_enabled=”on|hover” box_shadow_spread__hover=”0px” box_shadow_spread__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_styles__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_scale__hover=”98%|98%” transform_scale__hover_enabled=”on|hover” transform_translate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_rotate__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_skew__hover_enabled=”on|desktop” transform_origin__hover_enabled=”on|desktop”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section][et_pb_section fb_built=”1″ next_background_color=”#ffffff” _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” background_image=”https:\/\/orthobiologicsassociates.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/04\/image-7.png” parallax=”on” parallax_method=”off” bottom_divider_style=”wave2″ locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_row column_structure=”1_2,1_2″ use_custom_gutter=”on” gutter_width=”4″ _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font=”|600|||||||” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_line_height=”1.2em” header_2_font=”|600|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”0px||8px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” header_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_font_size_phone=”22px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_2_font_size_phone=”22px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n Orthobiologics Associates ,uses advanced medical diagnostics to determine exactly what\u2019s going on with your pain. We want to know precisely what\u2019s happening in order to create a customized plan that specifically targets the issues you\u2019re having. Just like muscle and bone injuries, disc tears are unique from person to person, and require a personalized plan of recovery.<\/p>\n Doctors will often recommend steroid injections to temporarily decrease the pain, but these can actually block your body\u2019s ability to heal itself when used too often! Surgery is another option, with spinal fusion screwing or fusing two vertebrae together. This lowers your overall mobility, and generally does a bad job at treating the root cause of your pain!<\/p>\n We at Orthobiologics Associates <\/span>approach disc tears with integrative medicine, which has a massive advantage over steroid injections and surgeries. It allows us to approach the problem from multiple angles, and use cutting-edge stem cell therapy that is much less invasive and boosts your body\u2019s natural ability to recover. We utilize regenerative medicine including physical rehabilitation, medical acupuncture, platelet-rich plasma therapy (PRP), and more to bring you back to living pain-free as fast as possible!<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][et_pb_column type=”1_2″ _builder_version=”4.16″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_font=”|600|||||||” header_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_line_height=”1.2em” header_2_font=”|600|||||||” header_2_text_color=”#FFFFFF” header_2_line_height=”1.2em” custom_margin=”0px||8px||false|false” custom_margin_tablet=”” custom_margin_phone=”” custom_margin_last_edited=”on|phone” header_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_font_size_phone=”22px” header_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” header_2_font_size_tablet=”28px” header_2_font_size_phone=”22px” header_2_font_size_last_edited=”on|phone” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.25.0″ _module_preset=”default” text_text_color=”#FFFFFF” locked=”off” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n At Orthobilogics Associates <\/span>we are most well-known for our integrated approach to healing.

Going on bed rest would slow down the blood circulation around the injury, and stiffen your body up which will feed into the pain cycle even more. You should avoid high-impact and heavy activities like jumping, heavy barbell squatting, and activities that cause pain until you have a proper diagnosis and plan of recovery.<\/p>\n [\/et_pb_accordion_item][\/et_pb_accordion][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][\/et_pb_section]<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":" Healing Disc Tears Without SurgeryThe discs in our spine are surprisingly tough \u2013 there\u2019s a lot of fear out there today that as soon as we injure a disc, it\u2019s \u201cgame over.\u201d That simply is not true.
