A Common Hockey Injury: Herniated Disc

Featuring Behnad Honarbakhsh, MPT, BHK, CSCS, CAFCI, D.O.(c), Physiotherapist

Duration: 1 minute

Disc injuries are very common, especially in contact sports such as hockey.

It's really important for people to realize that when disc injuries are non traumatic, they don't happen overnight, so things cook and it's usually due to severe imbalances in the body.

You've got your nerves coming out between each segment of your spine, and when the liquid inside that disc comes out is when you get herniation. When it presses on the nerve that's when you get severe, sharp shooting pain that can refer down the leg, and sometimes people have tingling and numbness associated with it.

A physiotherapist needs to determine the severity of the hockey injury. And, to make sure that the predisposing factors are taken care of to have you on the right track to optimal recovery.

If you have questions about disc injuries in hockey, contact a local physiotherapist or sports medicine physician.
