Herniate (verb)

1. To protrude or bulge out of place, especially due to a weakness or tear in the surrounding tissue.
2. To cause or develop a hernia.

Origin:

From hernia + -ate, from latin herniare 'to rupture', from hernia 'rupture, hernia'. the latin word is probably from a root meaning 'to stick out, bulge'.

Examples:

2. The surgeon warned the patient that if he didn't rest and avoid heavy lifting, his herniated disk could worsen.
3. The herniated disk put pressure on the surrounding nerves, causing pain and numbness in the man's leg.
4. The herniated disk required surgery to correct and relieve the pressure on the surrounding nerves.
5. The herniated portion of the intestine was carefully pushed back into place, and the tear in the muscle wall was repaired.
