    This differentiation is much needed. There is so much confusion surrounding this. Everything is just interchanged. Thank you.

    Good info, thank you. If you have a bulging disk, are there some exercises that can be done without aggravating this area?

    For years, when I went shopping and got into the truck afterwards, I would need to sit for a little bit until my disc in the lumbar area slipped back into place. I figured if it is still moving around, it was doing okay. Haven’t experienced that in a while. Lately, I find my legs aren’t working quite right. Not sure what’s going on.

    What is the difference in reality and in treatment? In my case the doctors can't decide if it is hernia or bulging. I can barely walk for 21 years now! I am desperate! Naprapat and physiotherapy only made it worse. Everything seems to work differently on me. Greetings from Sweden!💖

      Can a bulging disc eventually return to normal with chiropractic treatment?

      I am so sorry to hear that. They can definitely be different from bulging to herniations. It also depends on mechanics of your body, previous injuries, limitations, nutrition, etc.

    Thanks for the visual demonstration. Okay, that what it is, so what is there to help remedy the bulging disc scenario. And is it reversible. What exercise are there to help avoid it from getting worse and becoming a herniated disc?

    Mine literally ruptured and was pressing against my nerve. I could barely walk. Pain was unbearable. Ended up in the emergency room and then had surgery the next day. I believe it was called a laminectomy.

    Thank you ive been wondering what the difference is. I'm a little confused though. Can a bulging disc ever cause a pinched nerve? I have a pinched nerve in my neck but was told I have a bulging (cervical) disc not a herniated one.

  • @alvideos2145

    So basically it starts with bulging, if it gets worse it gets herniated. I have a question though, I can kind of feel something move in the back of my spine in a specific place when i move it with my fingers, it doesn't really hurt, but i DO have other nerve problems down way lower. Could this be herniated, or is it just something else? it moves around fairly easy. Edit: Also, can bulging discs simply be fixed with stretches, therapy, better posture, walking, etc?

    My pain management doctor has been treating my lumbars with steroid injections. Still haven't found the exact angle or exact disc that will give complete relief. I flew up in the air & came down on my frozen steps in 2016. Landed on my right belt line & shoved all of my lumbar to the left.

    The difference is that with a bulging disc, you sit in a wheelchair and with a herniated disc you still can walk.

      It’s the opposite of what you said. Herniated is worse.

    I have a herniated disc, causing pain & numbness throughout my left leg. Consulted two orthopaedic doctors and both have suggested surgery. Can there be a non-surgical remedy for treatment of a herniated disc?

    • @Leg3ndar1
      @Leg3ndar1 8 месяцев назад

      You only take surgery if you ruptured it. Have you try epidural injection?

    • @Bsjfjfjfjf
      @Bsjfjfjfjf 7 месяцев назад

      I’m 8-9 weeks out. 19mm herniation with possible free fragments..my ortho takes it in steps, NSAIDS if that doesn’t work then epidural, lastly surgery. But per what he said 80-90% feel with conservative treatment. It’s really just about taking it easy and getting through the struggle everyday. Today is my first day without taking ibuprofen hopefully this will continue. I had the numbness and tingling in the leg for weeks, couldn’t sit down in a chair for more than 5-10min. Now I can sit for hours. And walk a few miles a day. Just take it easy.

    So a bulging disk would not cause compression on a nerve only a herniated disk?

    • @Leg3ndar1
      @Leg3ndar1 8 месяцев назад

      Bulging disc cause compression by movement. Herniated disc you move or not cause severe pain. Based on my experience.
