Description

PIVD, also known as Prolapsed Intervertebral Disc or slipped disc, is a common spinal condition where the disc between two vertebrae bulges or herniates and presses on nearby nerves. This leads to pain, numbness, and difficulty in movement. In India, PIVD cases are increasing due to long sitting hours, poor posture, and lack of physical activity. At Jain’s Physiotherapy, we provide structured physiotherapy treatment for PIVD. Our aim is to reduce pain, relieve nerve pressure, and improve spinal function so that patients can return to normal life safely without dependency on surgery in most cases. What is PIVD The spine is made up of vertebrae separated by soft discs that act as shock absorbers. When a disc moves out of its normal position, it can press on nearby nerves. This condition is called PIVD. It is commonly seen in the lower back (lumbar spine) and sometimes in the neck. PIVD can develop gradually due to wear and tear or suddenly due to injury or strain. Common Causes of PIVD Prolonged sitting, especially in office work Poor posture while working or using mobile Lifting heavy objects incorrectly Lack of exercise Aging and degeneration of discs Sudden bending or twisting movements In Indian lifestyle, long working hours, improper seating, and lack of ergonomic awareness contribute significantly to this condition. Symptoms of PIVD Lower back pain Pain radiating to legs (sciatica) Numbness or tingling sensation Muscle weakness Difficulty in bending or lifting Pain while sitting or standing for long time Symptoms may vary depending on the severity of nerve compression. Importance of Physiotherapy Physiotherapy is the primary treatment for most PIVD cases. Surgery is required only in severe conditions. Without proper physiotherapy, patients may experience long-term pain and restricted movement.
