Nutrients, such as nitrogen and phosphorus, are essential for plant and animal growth and nourishment, but the overabundance of certain nutrients in water can cause a number of adverse health and ecological effects.
Where can the symptoms of herniated discs be felt? Herniated disc symptoms can include localized pain and inflammation, as well as radiating pain, numbness, tingling, muscle weakness and muscle spasms. These radiating symptoms arise when a portion of the disc makes contact with a nearby nerve root.
Herniated discs usually elicit symptoms on one side of the body as the protruding disc presses on the spinal nerve roots at the corresponding level of the spine. The resulting nerve root irritation (radiculopathy) manifests as pain, numbness, and weakness in the extremity supplied by the affected nerve. Symptoms of a lumbar herniated disc include: 1  Low back pain. 2  Shooting pain from the buttocks to the leg (termed sciatica because the pain travels down the sciatic nerve). 3  Tingling and numbness in the buttock or leg (paresthesias). 4  Weakness in one or both legs.
