Herniated Disc Nerve Endings Health Care Set

A herniated disc is a medical condition in which the inner core of the disc, called the nucleus pulposus, pushes through a tear in the outer layer of the disc, called the annulus fibrosus. This may cause the disc to bulge or even rupture. The protruding nucleus can then press on nearby nerve endings, causing pain.
