Even if you have a bulging disc with no pain, the bulge can grow larger and eventually begin to press on the neighboring nerves if not properly treated. Spinal cord compression on the surrounding nerve roots can cause symptoms of sharp pain and cause inflammation to occur in the spinal canal. In many cases, a bulging disc can cause radiating leg pain.
The medical doctors and chiropractic physicians at Icon Medical Centers are experienced with providing treatment options for bulging disc in the lower back. A medical professional at our back pain clinic in Miami will evaluate your specific condition, provide treatment options, and explain any risk factors that may involved.
