Discogenic pain is the one that occurs as a consequence of disc degeneration.
The intervertebral discs are a fundamental part of the structure of the human spine, at the cervical, dorsal and lumbar levels. These spinal discs are highly hydrated structures that are located between the vertebrae and their main function is to serve as shock absorbers for all the forces and impacts that pass through the spine. To do this, they must maintain their physiological structure, which consists of a nucleus pulposus and a fibrous ring.
