Chiropractic Care for Bulging Disc in Flower Mound, TX
Understand your imaging and your options
Being told you have a bulging disc can be unsettling, but a bulge does not always mean severe pain or surgery. Palmercare Chiropractic Flower Mound helps patients understand what a bulging disc means for them and offers gentle care led by Dr. Madison Molitor.
Understanding Bulging Disc
A bulging disc extends beyond its normal boundary, often because of age-related wear, posture, repetitive strain or injury. Some bulges cause no symptoms, while others press on nearby nerves and create pain, tingling or weakness.
The Cleveland Clinic explains how bulging and herniated discs differ in its guide to a herniated disk. Sudden weakness or loss of bladder or bowel control needs emergency attention.
Bulging discs may produce:
- Aching in the neck or low back
- Pain that radiates into the arm or leg
- Numbness or tingling
- Stiffness after sitting
- No symptoms at all in some people
