A member asked:
2 bulging discs l3/4 and l4/5. ran on treadmill for few min. now have worse tingling/numbness. did i damage/irritate discs?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Bulging discs: Treadmill is never a good idea when you have disc issues with bulges. The best is a low impact activity like ellipitical. Treadmill acts like a jackhammer on the back, your muscles are probably in spasms as a result.
