With disc disease becoming all too prevalent among our animals, one might begin to wonder what exactly could be the cause? Why does a disc begin to bulge, herniate, or rupture completely? More often than not, we are told that a ruptured disc is the cause of our animal's issues, but less often we are told why that disc ruptured in the first place. I figured now would be a great time to explain how that disc becomes liable to injury.
