Back Pain Symptoms

When you have a bulging disc, it puts pressure on your spinal nerves, leading to back pain and other symptoms. Typical symptoms when you have a bulging disc include:

  • Pain in your upper or lower back
  • Tingling, numbness, or weakness in your arms or legs
  • Stiffness or reduced range of motion in your back

The location of your pain and other sensations can help pinpoint which disc is affected. For example, a bulging disc in your upper back may cause symptoms in your arms and hands. Pay close attention to your symptoms so you can explain them accurately to our chiropractor near you.

Seek Chiropractic Adjustments for Bulging Discs

One of the most effective treatments for bulging discs is chiropractic adjustment by our licensed chiropractor near you. Chiropractors are experts at diagnosing problems with your musculoskeletal system. They use their hands or small instruments to apply controlled force to joints in your spine.

This helps realign your vertebrae, taking pressure off the bulging disc. Chiropractic adjustments also improve mobility in your back. As you undergo regular chiropractic care, the bulging disc has a chance to heal and shrink back into place.

Combine Chiropractic Adjustments with Other Treatments

Our chiropractor may recommend additional treatments to use along with chiropractic adjustments to maximize your pain relief and healing. Options may include:

  • Heat/ice therapy
  • TENS (electrical stimulation)
  • Therapeutic exercises
  • Lifestyle changes

The right combination of treatments customized to your condition gives you the best chance for long-term relief from that nagging back pain.
