Slip Disc Treatment in Mumbai at D Spine Clinic

A slip disc, also called a herniated disc or prolapsed disc, is one of the leading causes of back and neck pain. At DSpine Clinic, our team of highly experienced spine specialists and surgeons provides the best slip disc treatment in Mumbai, using advanced diagnostic techniques and evidence-based treatment options.

What is a Slip Disc?

The spine is made up of vertebrae cushioned by soft intervertebral discs that act as shock absorbers. A slip disc occurs when the soft inner portion of a disc (nucleus pulposus) bulges or leaks out through a tear in the tougher outer ring (annulus fibrosus).
This bulging disc can compress nearby spinal nerves, causing pain, numbness, tingling, or weakness in the back, neck, arms, or legs. If you are searching for a slip disc specialist in Mumbai, our experts at D Spine Clinic can help you with accurate diagnosis and advanced treatment.
