One or more of your intervertebral discs are damaged.

An intervertebral disc is like a cushion between two adjacent vertebrae of the vertebral column. The intervertebral discs cushion pressure. As a result, less strain is placed on the vertebrae. The intervertebral discs also allow the vertebral column to move. An intervertebral disc consists of a firm ring with a soft core.

When intervertebral discs are damaged they can bulge out between adjacent vertebrae. This is also known as a disc protrusion. When an intervertebral disc is even more badly damaged, the result may be a prolapsed disc. This involves the tough ring of the disc tearing and soft disc tissue sliding between the vertebrae.

The vertebrae form the vertebral canal on the rear of the spinal column. The spinal cord runs in the vertebral canal. Nerve fibers run from the brain into the body via the spinal cord and form nerves there. Every nerve is responsible for a particular part of the skin and for certain muscles. These nerves are important for instance in enabling us to feel and move our muscles.

The damaged disc is putting pressure on the nerves that come straight out of your spinal cord. These nerves may become irritated or damaged as a result.

One symptom of a damaged disc is back pain, for example. The pain may also spread to the arms or legs. The skin can feel numb in certain places. There may also be a tingling. It may also be that you are no longer able to move a part of your body properly.

Additional indicator

On medical documents, the ICD code is often appended by letters that indicate the diagnostic certainty or the affected side of the body.

  • G: Confirmed diagnosis
  • V: Tentative diagnosis
  • Z: Condition after
  • A: Excluded diagnosis
  • L: Left
  • R: Right
  • B: Both sides
