I believe because of the pressure, it may be harmful in a way for my disc herniation, the herniation is not severe, but I feel pain from time to time...I'm male, 25.
Answers:
Only your medical professional can answer that.
Remember that you will not only be pulling and stowing your own luggage, but also you are expected to assist passengers with their luggage.
In addition, you will be pushing or pulling a cart weighing up to 250 lbs. during service, and opening and closing the doors to the aircraft, which are quite heavy.
The pressurization should not be a problem. If you passed the airline's physical they must think you can do it.
Good luck.
flight attendant.
