One side of the body is often more affected than the other. In general, traumatic disc extrusions are not painful, although when the disc suddenly ruptures some patients may yelp or cry out. After the initial onset, the neurological signs do not tend to get any worse after the first 24 hours.\n<br><br>\nFig 1: MRI scan showing a traumatic disc extrusion in the neck

The damage done by the bruising cannot be treated surgically, and so surgery is not usually of any value in treating the injury. Instead, the patient needs to be given time to allow the damaged nerve tissue to recover.\n<br><br>\nSupportive care and nursing after a traumatic disc extrusion are essential in order to aid recovery. Bedding needs to be well padded in order to prevent bed sores. Regular physiotherapy and, in some cases, hydrotherapy can help function to be regained and assist in building strength.

The findings on the neurological examination and MRI scanning can help to predict the chances of recovery.\n<br><br>\nPatients that are paralysed and cannot feel pain in their limbs are, sadly, unlikely to recover. However, the majority of less severely affected animals will gradually improve over a period of weeks to months, to a point where they can freely exercise and have a good quality of life. A degree of weakness in one or more limbs and, occasionally, incontinence may persist in some patients.
