Hey guys, I recently found out that I have a "moderate to severe" herniated disk between c6 and c7 causing tinging and muscle loss of my right arm. Anyway, I've been training on it for a while, but I finally decided to get it checked out ( I'm in dental school and I should be able to feel my hand when working on a patient). While I haven't seen my nuerologist yet, I'm curious to what I'm in for. Can I ever train/compete jiu jitsu again? Can they heal themselves? If I get surgery (fused or artificial disk) can I train again AND practice dentistry? This is ridiculouos, I'm only 23. Thanks guys
