A member asked:
There are areas of minor disc bulging on spine.the discs and vertebrae are otherwise unremarkable. what does this mean?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Minor bulging: This means that any back or leg symptoms you have are unlikely to require surgical or injection treatment and may have nothing to do with your minor bulging discs. Very many people who have mri's show some bulging of discs. A neurosurgeon or spine clinic could advise you best,however.
