• Disc Herniation Treatment
  In the last edition of Attorney at Law Magazine, I discussed with you the differences between a disc bulge and the types of intervertebral disc herniations. I also referenced an article from the New England Journal of Medicine stating disc protrusions may be present with the absence of symptoms. 1 This article is at times used as a defense against the injured client or to challenge the treating doctor’s or expert witness’ opinion that the disc herniation is the cause of the patient’s pain. Have you heard in the past some comment about “your client’s MRI showed disc degeneration and the disc herniation was probably there before the accident” or “there is no disc herniation so your client cannot be having that much pain.”? The goal of this article is to provide you resources on how pre-existing degenerative disc increase the risk of injury and what evidence might be present to support that the disc herniation is the cause of your client’s complaints.
