A member asked:
Do you think i should do sit ups with a bulging disc?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Exercises and spine: Once cleared from your physician, core exercises for the back are always valuable to reduce symptoms and prevent recurrence. This involves stretching exercises to loosen the tissues, followed by strengthening exercises to support the back, abdominal and pelvic muscles. Sit-ups can be a part of that regimen.
