A herniated lumbar disc (lumbar disc herniation) occurs when a disc between the vertebrae of the spine moves out of its normal position and presses on a nerve. It is characterized by low back pain along with numbness or pain radiating down the leg. With timely treatment, most cases may improve without surgery.2026-06-26

Surfer's myelopathy is a rare condition in which reduced blood flow to the spinal cord during activities that involve excessive backward bending of the spine — such as surfing, yoga, or Pilates — leads to neurological symptoms. If leg paralysis or loss of bladder or bowel control develops after low back pain, go to the emergency room immediately.2026-06-26
