A member asked:
I have an mri result stating disc bulge c5-6 and thecal sac indentation. pain clinic assessment today says this is normal, uncertain why pain exists?

A disc bulge: is not normal, it is a sign of degenerative disc disease. However, it is a common incidental finding, and often causes no symptoms. They probably mean that they don't think it is causing your symptoms.
