What is a Disc Tear? A disc or annular-tear (or fissure) represents a degenerative or traumatic change in an interveterbral disc1. These tears involve separations or breaks in the fibers comprising the annulus fibrosus, or the fibrous outer-most portion of an intervertebral disc.
The annulus can tear or rupture anywhere around the disc. If it tears and no disc material is ruptured, this is called an annular tear. The outer 1/3 of the discâs annular ring is highly innervated with pain fibers. Thus, if a tear involves the outer 1/3 it may be extremely painful.This tear will heal with scar tissue over time but is more prone to future tears and injury.f it tears and no disc material is ruptured, this is called an annular tear.
