I am getting a discogram done next week. what should i expect with this procedure?

See below: The procedure is done to determine which disc might be causing your pain. It takes about 30 minutes to perform the test. You will be sore afterwards and should have a plan in place beforehand to deal with the pain caused by the procedure. I recommend daily massage in addition to analgesics.
