Tiago Iorc Undergoes Injection for Cervical Herniated Disc, Is Recovering

Doctors describe the image-guided anti-inflammatory shot as a conservative treatment, noting most cases resolve without surgery.

Overview

  • The singer was hospitalized urgently over the weekend after an acute cervical herniated disc caused intense pain and sleeplessness.
  • He told fans the injection to block inflammation was successful and that he remains stable under medical supervision.
  • Iorc attributed the crisis to years of poor posture linked to his height, guitar playing and prolonged phone use, and he urged followers to prioritize daily health habits.
  • He had a similar episode about four years ago when surgery was suggested but he improved with osteopathy, physiotherapy and pilates.
  • Medical experts say the procedure combines local anesthetic and corticosteroid under imaging guidance as an outpatient option, with surgery reserved for persistent pain or significant neurological deficit.
