What is a Bulging Disc?

The spinal discs are like cushions that keep each set of bones separate in your back. Their main purpose is to absorb impact or shock which protects the spinal vertebrae from wearing out with extreme movement.

The discs are made up of strong outer protection known as the annulus, and there is a soft centre made of a jelly like substance called nucleus. When the disc becomes herniated , the outer protection erodes becoming fragile, weak and tears.

This causes the jelly to move from the middle disc into a weak area which makes it bulge.

A serious complication is that the nerves of your spine are located behind each spinal disc, and is the most likely place that the disc will bulge so you can see the problem. The proximity of the disc to the nerve is what causes the back extreme pain.
