A member asked:
Why is it that when i bend by neck down it hurts in my lower back? hurts a lot to sneeze i do have a bulging disk l5 s1 hurts to get up from sitting
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Direct reason is : Because flexion of neck places tension on the spinal cord. But your symptoms could be from meningitis, not from disc. So i would have your doctor take a look at it.
