The disks are protective shock-absorbing pads between the bones of the spine. Slipped Disc cause the disk to fail, allowing the gel to escape into the surrounding tissue. The leaking jellylike substance can place pressure on the spinal cord and cause symptoms of pain either around the damaged disk or anywhere along the area controlled by that nerve.
