This site is a space to share my own experiences with an L5-S1 annular tear. I’m also hoping to create a forum where people can share their experiences with annular tears. There seems to be so much information on the web about disc herniations, but hardly anything about annular tears.

This website will include information pertaining to what an annular tear is, expected healing times, things to do to assist your recovery, and my own day-to-day ADL’s, fears, triumphs, and timelines.
