Not correct. You can have herniated discs with absolutely zero
symptoms.

Technically that may be correct since CT / MRI can pick up herniated
discs that are asymptomatic, but in Iggy's case he's symptomatic. Were
you intending to warn him that an abnormal CT or MRI doesn't
necessarily mean that it's that disk that's causing his symptoms?
