BlueCoyote 0 Posted July 24, 2008 Report Share Posted July 24, 2008 (edited) herniated disk? put it this way..... my bulldog bitch herniated one of her disks and was paralysed for three months. and she still cant walk properly, and its been a year and six months since her accident. but i did pay a small fee to have acupuncture done on her, she started walking again after that. but the vet who did that said acupuncture is cheapest route.... surgery is iffy and can often make things worse, and you may still have problems. i say ask a doctor. my cousins husband herniated a disk while playing basket ball and he was a gimp for quite a long time. the way those disks work is like... jelly donuts between the bones in the spine. when one breaks its incredibly painful and debilitating. they CAN heal on their own but you have to REALLY take it easy....
