Just in case you don't know, a slipped disc is when a soft cushion of tissue between the bones in your spine pushes out. It's painful if it presses on nerves. It usually gets better slowly with rest, gentle exercise and painkillers.
A video, shared by user @bohjankl went viral on TikTok showing a man screaming in agony as he lay down on the floor or a parking lot…
Apparently, the man recently had surgery for a slipped disc.

The user described how the man initially fell in front of him and started to scream. Since it was 5 am at that time, he thought that the man was just drunk.
However, as he approached the man, he found out that he previously had surgery for a slipped disc.
A recent TikTok video shared by @bohjankl went viral and showed a man screaming in agony as he lay in a parking lot because he had slipped discs.
He described how the man initially fell in front of him and started to scream. The hour was then 5 am, and the man assumed the person was drunk.
However, when he approached the man, he discovered that he had suffered from a slipped disc and had undergone surgery before this.
“I didn’t know what to do. I wanted to help but I was alone. So, I called an ambulance and then called the security guard for help,” he explained.
The security guard tried calming the man down while waiting for the ambulance to arrive, but it seemed like the man was in so much pain so he tried to stay calm.
The man was then taken to the Kuala Lumpur General Hospital (HKL) for treatment.
The video has since garnered over 2.4 million views at the time of writing.
Malaysians took to the comment section to praise the man for his swift action. The security guard who helped to calm the man down was also praised for his commendable effort.
There are also those who shared about their own experience having to deal with a slipped disc, and apparently, it’s very painful!
The man really looked like he was in so much pain. We’re so glad someone was there to help him!
