[|AI|]  Hi welcome to ChatDoctorI have gone through your query about your bulged disc. It is a matter of concern Dear, A bulging disc is not necessarily a sign that anything serious is happening to your spine and need surgery. On seeing an Exray, surgery can not be diagnosed And is not a guarantee for better future life, and will enable you to play Badminton. If your doctor insists surgery, I would suggest you to consult other specialist, for 2nd opinion. Disc bulges are a common cause of lower back pain. They can sometimes be reduced by doing simple exercises and stretches, and making some lifestyle modifications. Our day today derailed lifestyle and faulty food habits cause our immune system to become weak and lead to various sufferings. Displacement of disc or joints is one of such sufferings . Balanced diet including all essential nutrients - vitamins, minerals and antioxidants in natural form , fiber, fruit veges, Aloe Vera, lemon juice with black pepper & salt.  Turmeric powder in a cup of hot milk at bedtime and BF, regular walk, exercise, deep breathing, meditation and yoga posture are very helpful in eliminating inflammation and pains anywhere, and remove your health problems. Backbends usually give relief to disc bulk. When done purposefully back bending poses increase the C curve of your lower back, and there by help in building strength of your immune system. Ushtrasan on Vajjarasan & Certain poses, such as set band & (Bridge), will help you to build strength in the lower back muscles, which in time may help correct your disc. Also, Cobra posture, when done correctly build strength in your middle and lower back. No front bending. Only back bending is allowed. Ankara, Kapalbhatti and Pauli can strengthen the abdominal muscles and diaphragm. Ramayana (stretching your body, hands above head to sky and feet towards ground, standing straight) will also help in giving a correct posture. Avoid fried fast foods too much of salt, sugar, tea, coffee, alcohol, smoking, stress, constipation and dehydration , sleeplessness. Hope this helps solves your query. Take care, All the best.Don't hesitate to get back if you have any further query
