Bulging Disc Treatment in Orlando, FL
A bulging disc occurs when a spinal disc extends beyond its normal border, often from age-related wear, poor posture or injury, and can press on nearby nerves to cause back, neck, arm or leg pain. Orlando Spine and Wellness Center treats bulging discs without surgery using spinal decompression, chiropractic adjustments and Class IV laser therapy for patients in Orlando, Meadow Woods and Lake Nona.
Bulging Disc vs Herniated Disc
Extends evenly outward
A bulging disc extends evenly outward while its tough outer layer stays intact.
Tear lets material escape
A herniated disc has a tear that lets the soft inner material escape.
Bulging discs are very common, may cause no symptoms at all, and can progress to a herniation if left untreated.
