As people age, the structures that make up the backbone and neck gradually develop wear and
tear.
 Cervical Herniated Disk – A herniated disc (also called bulged, slipped or ruptured) is a fragment
of the disc nucleus that is pushed out of the annulus, into the spinal canal through a tear or
rupture in the annulus.
