My 16 year old DD has just been diagnosed with a herniated disc in her lower back. She has been prescribed complete rest for a week, followed by physical therapy. No softball whatsoever for 6 weeks. I've been doing a lot of research into athletes and herniated discs; I've discovered quite a few softball and baseball players who have suffered from herniated discs.
If anyone here has a story that they'd be willing to share regarding a herniated disc, I'd be very grateful to hear about it! My main concern is, of course, the probability of achieving a full recovery and an eventual return to pitching.
