BULGING DISCS AND CHIROPRACTIC CARE IN CONCORD NC
Between each vertebra in your spine are discs, flexible cushions that provide structure, stability, and shock absorption. Each disc has a tough outer layer with a softer, gel-like center. While they are designed to be strong, stress on the spine can sometimes cause a disc to bulge outward. At ChiroPure, our focus is on how the nervous system adapts to these changes and how chiropractic can help restore proper function.
WHAT IS A BULGING DISC?
A bulging disc occurs when the outer layer of a disc extends beyond its normal boundary. This can place pressure on nearby nerves and create inflammation in the surrounding tissues. Bulging discs are fairly common and may present with no symptoms at all or with significant discomfort.
Common factors that contribute to bulging discs include:
Sports or activity-related stress
Traumatic injuries
Natural aging and wear over time
The key concern is how well your spine and nervous system are able to adapt to these stresses.
POSSIBLE SYMPTOMS
Bulging discs are most often found in the lower back (lumbar spine), though they can occur anywhere in the spine. Depending on the location, you may experience:
Local discomfort or stiffness
Pain that radiates into the hips, legs, or feet (lumbar spine)
Pain that radiates into the arms or hands (cervical spine)
Changes in mobility or flexibility
Because symptoms can vary widely, a thorough evaluation is important to understand how the spine is being affected.
