Many people believe if they don’t have leg pain, they can’t possibly have a disc issue—but Dr. JD Dudum breaks down exactly why that’s not always true.

In this episode, he explains the difference between a disc bulge and a herniation, why back pain can be chronic even without sciatica, and how most traditional therapies fail to address the root cause.

He shares real case studies of two patients: Nehemiah, who spent five years and saw 10 doctors with no lasting relief, and Gareth, who went from severe sciatica to 100% pain-free in just 8 weeks. Dr. JD walks through how his decompression technique identifies hidden disc injuries—even in patients who’ve “tried everything”—and why proper diagnosis and strategic decompression are the key to long-term relief.
