The good news is that many slipped discs can heal on their own due to the body's natural healing processes. However, it's essential to understand that healing doesn't always mean the root cause of the problem has been addressed. Lifestyle factors like poor posture, lack of exercise, and excess body weight can contribute to a slipped disc's occurrence. Unless these factors are addressed, there's a risk of another slipped disc in the future. While many slipped discs will heal naturally, non-surgical treatment options can help alleviate symptoms and expedite recovery. These can include medications, physical therapy, chiropractic care, and lifestyle modifications. We can guide you through these treatments, helping you strengthen your back muscles, improve your posture, and make necessary lifestyle changes. However, in some cases, a slipped disc might not heal naturally and may require more invasive treatments. If the slipped disc causes significant nerve compression leading to severe pain, weakness, or loss of bowel or bladder control, surgical intervention may be necessary. When it comes to spinal health, it's always best to consult with professionals like those at InovoSpine. We can provide an accurate diagnosis and guide you through the appropriate treatment plan, whether it involves conservative treatments or more invasive procedures.
