What has your doctor reccommended and what have you tried already? Meds, PT, injections etc? Have you had an MRI? How long ago was it? If you have had more than one, has there been any difference in the size of the disc bulge? There are many treatment options, ranging from PT, injections, to alternative therapies like acupuncture, as well as a last resort of surgery. You need to speak to your doctor and work out a treatment plan that works for you. Everybody is different and what works for one person might not work for you!

Sounds to me like you have bulged discs, Now days Dr. can use a lazar to burn off the part of the disc that is pressing on the nerves and causing your pain. They are doing this as day surgery now with patients walking out of the Dr,office and going to work. Having had this pain for 5 yrs , Dont bother with any injection, They don't work any way. You MUST Start with an MRI scan to determine the reason and source of your pain. I will need more info about your condition to help any further. Please feel free to ask , Will help any way I can,
