Disc displacement occurs when a disc has fallen out of its alignment in the backbone (spine). A spinal disc provides cushioning from daily activity while keeping the bones (vertebrae) separated. When a disc becomes displaced, it is no longer able to provide that cushioning in between the vertebrae.
Radiculopathy can be defined as the whole complex of symptoms that can arise from nerve root pathology, including anesthesia, paresthesia, hypoesthesia, motor loss and pain. Radicular pain and nerve root pain can be defined as a single symptom (pain) that can arise from one or more spinal nerve roots.
Radiculopathy describes symptoms produced by the pinching of a nerve root in the spinal column. Sciatica is one of the most common types of radiculopathy and refers to pain that originates in your lower back and travels through your buttocks and down the sciatic nerve – the largest single nerve in the body.
