5 Telltale Signs You Have a Bulging Disc
The spine is the main pillar to physical well-being, and when injured, can easily wreak havoc on the rest of the body. The spinal column is supported by bones, also called the vertebrae, and cushion-like discs to support them in between. Made up of cartilage and a water and collagen gel mixture, these discs allow your back to bend and rotate freely. When one of these discs protrudes out of place, you can experience sharp pain and limited movement.
If you’re suffering from a bulging disc, one of our chiropractors can help you heal the problem at its core—and without expensive surgeries or medications. Here at TLC Chiropractic, Inc., our trio of resident doctors boasts years of experience addressing and treating bulging discs and other conditions with top-quality chiropractic assistance and a genuine passion for bettering patients’ lives.
The Top 5 Signs of a Bulging Disc
Not sure what’s causing your back pain? You can conclude whether your discomfort is being caused by a bulging disc with these 5 determining factors:
- You feel sciatica pain shooting down your arms or legs.
- You feel pain or discomfort while sitting or standing for extended periods of time.
- You experience numbness or tingling, particularly on one side of the body.
- Your pain is amplified when performing certain activities like bending down or walking.
- You feel weak, especially when lifting or pushing heavy objects.
If you’re suffering one or more of the above symptoms, we highly suggest contacting a professional for further inspection. Bulging discs left untreated can quickly develop into more serious problems, so seeking medical care is urgent. Our skilled team at TLC Chiropractic, Inc. can assess your situation and set up a personalized treatment plan
