I dont really know how to say it in words, but the minute you find out you have a herniated disc or loss of cartilage or whatever it gives you a mental excuse to constantly think about that pain and use it as a excuse to not work out. I guess id kinda consider it like a placebo effect. Again just my personal opinion.
