My advice : talk to your doctor about that. Or consult to the Sports Medicine. Do not put yourself into risk.

Hi.

I had one in C5-C6 level after a small car accident. It became huge continuing fitness in 2013. My only symptom was neck pain. So I had to stop.

I did some exercises regularly, never lift...

First of all, stop being pessimist. You're not the 1st one who had that type of injury.

Herniated discs can heal over time. But it takes a long process. Let your body heal.

Do not rush to...

I advise you to have a break for a while.

Do you know the exact reason of pain? I advise you to get this answer first. It may be something serious and it may get worse if you push further. Health is first priority.

My 2 cents:

Leg Extension (slow and controlled, lift until legs become straight and knees locked)
Leg Curl (slow and controlled)
Leg Press (slow and controlled, do not push it completely, do not...

As an ex-sufferer of that injury, I advise you to stop forcing your knees in every aspect of life. I also advise you to keep your muscles around your knee very strong doing some special exercises...

Last year, my doctor told me that I have a big herniated disc, almost sequestered. But she was surprised that I had no symptoms other than some occasional neck pain. I got her more and more surprised...

If it's truely a herniated disc.. It depends on the person. E.x. it's an emergency to get treatment if you're having increasing muscle weakness. Don't rush for surgery. You may get relief after a...

I'm not a doctor. I'm not the one who tells someone needs surgery or not. I will just share the scientific info.

I believe you should get an MRI to diagnose your problem. Be well.

1) Stop lifting completely in recovery period. This may take several months to a few years.
2) Have good posture all the time. It doesn't matter if you work, play, sleep, stand.
3) Drink a lot of...

It may never heal. Or it may heal in weeks, months, years. It depends on the person. You better ask a doctor. That's a very complicated question.

First, thank you. I wish the same for you.

What do you mean by "still looks exactly the same as it did before" ? Is your herniation still in the same size?

Weird thing is that a herniated disc...

It's been almost 7 months for me to be out of gym. C5-C6 disc herniation after a car accident in 2012. Still in recovery. I too sometimes feel the same weird feeling around my right shoulder blade....

I had this cracking first time in 2009. My problem was Chondromalacia Patellae. I started my treatment and exercises. With the help of God, I got much better. As to cracking, it's still there but I...
