Before we dive into some natural Bulging disc exercises<\/strong> you can do for treatment, let’s explain exactly what a disc bulge is and the main causes.<\/p>\n

So, what is a bulging disc?<\/span><\/h2>\n

To understand what a bulging disc is, we must first understand the anatomy of the spine.<\/p>\n

Put simply, the spine is made up of individual vertebrae stacked on top of each other. Between each vertebrae is an intervertebral disc that provides a cushion so the vertebrae don\u2019t rub together. The discs between the vertebrae, have a gel-like material inside (called a nucleus pulposus).<\/p>\n

A great way to think of the discs is like that of a balloon filled with water, and these discs help resist compressive forces on the spine.<\/p>\n

When a disc bulges the gel-like material inside of it gets pushed back towards the nerves and structures of the spine.[2]<\/a> This bulge can sometimes compress spinal structures, ligaments or nerves in your spine and cause pain, tingling\/or burning sensation, and\/or other symptoms.[1]<\/a>[3]<\/a><\/p>\n

* It is important to note that a bulging disc doesn\u2019t always touch the nerves, and for many a bulged disc doesn\u2019t even produce any pain at all.[2]<\/a>[7]<\/a> However, it could progress to become a herniated disc eventually, which can be problematic.<\/p>\n
