Herniated discs can be effectively treated with physical therapy and medications, however, to actually heal or repair the herniated disc, surgical intervention is usually indicated. Although surgery can relieve symptoms such as pain and numbness, it may not always be permanent, and symptoms may occur. Corticosteroid injections may also relieve pain and swelling of the herniated disc.

Very rarely a cervical herniated disc can heal, it depends on the severity. I would not recommend waiting for your problem to heal by itself. See a doctor!

I think they don't, but you would have to check with your doctor to know for sure or not. Go talk to your doctor about it.
