Is walking good for a herniated disk?


If you or a loved one has sustained a herniated disk injury from an accident, contact America’s Consumer Lawyer for a free consultation so we can help you recover from this experience and get fairly compensated.

A herniated disk is the result of a high-energy impact that injures the spine, such as a fall or a motor vehicle collision. This causes one or more of the disks to crack on the outside, tough cartilage part and allow the softer inner cartilage to protrude out of the disk’s perimeter. Often, they cause numbness, tingling, aching, and/or sharp pains in portions of the leg and buttocks that interfere with daily activity.

Generally, walking short distances is a good idea for those with herniated disks. However, the key is to walk short distances. This is to get your blood flowing and get oxygen moving to your cells. If you can walk a distance sufficient to do this, walking would be a good option. It may also help keep your disks hydrated and aid in the healing process.

The goal is to protect your spine from everyday activities that may strain your back or put extra pressure on the nerves surrounding it. As long as you do not overwork yourself or continue walking while experiencing pain, walking can help those with herniated disks to expedite the healing process of their injury.

If another person caused your injuries, you can file a claim against them for monetary damages.
