How common are herniated discs?

Among adults without current or previous back pain, 33 percent have significant disc abnormality. Fifty-seven percent over age sixty and 20 percent under age sixty have at least one bulging disc, and a major disc abnormality is seen in 14 percent of pain-free people under age forty and 28 percent of those over forty. One study showed a 35 percent abnormal rate in pain-free subjects, with patients over forty years of age having a 50 percent abnormal rate.

Depending upon your age, chances are better than fifty-fifty that if you go for an magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), some abnormality will be revealed.

I cant really gove you an answer,but what I can give you is a way to a solution, that is you have to find the anglde that you relate to or peaks your interest. A good paper is one that people get drawn into because it reaches them ln some way.As for me WW11 to me, I think of the holocaust and the effect it had on the survivors, their families and those who stood by and did nothing until it was too late.
