What Is A Bulging Disc?

A bulging disc, also known as a herniated or slipped disc, occurs when one of the discs between the vertebrae in your spine protrudes out of its normal position. These discs act as cushions between the bones of your spine, absorbing shock and allowing flexibility. When a disc bulges, it can put pressure on nearby nerves, leading to pain, numbness, or weakness in the affected area.

Signs And Symptoms Of A Bulging Disc

The symptoms of a bulging disc can vary depending on the severity of the condition and the location of the affected disc. Common signs and symptoms include:

  • Localised Pain: Pain in the back, neck, or shoulders, depending on where the bulging disc is located.
  • Radiating Pain: Pain that radiates down the arms or legs, often referred to as sciatica when the lower back is affected.
  • Numbness Or Tingling: A sensation of numbness, tingling, or “pins and needles” in the extremities.
  • Weakness: Muscle weakness in the arms, legs, or other affected areas.
  • Reduced Mobility: Difficulty bending, twisting, or performing other movements due to pain or stiffness.
