Herniated Disc

Herniated disc is very common and can happen to anyone, says Dr. Melissa Guanche, Physiatrist at Baptist Health Neuroscience Center. The specialist explains that it doesn’t matter if you have a healthy lifestyle or if you are sedentary, a constant bad posture, for example, can cause this condition. “Whether you are healthy and in shape, or sedentary, or have a physical job it can happen to everybody," she adds.
