What causes discogenic pain?
At this time, medical professionals do not know the exact cause of discogenic pain. However, research leads us to believe that it could be associated with irritation of the tiny nerves that are located in the outer wall of the vertebral disc. There is still work to be done to discover exactly why these nerves become irritated in the first place. It could be linked to genetics, activities, acute injuries, etc.

What are the symptoms of discogenic pain?
With this condition, the pain can vary between feeling quite sharp or fairly dull. It tends to show up as lower back pain, although the pain can travel down through the buttocks, groin, and thighs. Individuals who are experiencing discogenic pain will often feel it during activities such as sitting, bending forward, coughing, or sneezing. However, sometimes, this condition can also manifest as back pain that does not have an obvious reason or cause.
