Many
players with
lower back pain,
leg pain, or
weakness of
the lower extremity
muscles are
diagnosed with
a herniated
disc or are
sometimes referred
to as a ‘slipped
disc'.
A
Stress fracture
or Spondylolysis
occurs due to
over use of
the lower back.
Spondylolysis
happens when
a crack forms
in the bony
ring on the
back of the
spinal column.
