Hard Case: With bulging discs, it's always hard to know if they are actually the cause of pain. Many people without back pain at all have bulging discs. Since you don't have any neural involvement, you may want to consider seeing a physical therapist or chiropractor to see if they can offer you any benefit. Best of luck!
