Yes, it can if you're not careful. Exercises that involve heavy lifting or high impact can put extra stress on your spine and make the condition worse. However, gentle exercises like walking, swimming, or stretching can actually help relieve pressure on your disc and strengthen the muscles around it. It’s very important to follow your doctor’s or physiotherapist’s advice before starting any exercise routine. They can recommend movements that are safe and effective for your condition.
