Turns out I have a disc bulge between two of my cervicals and it’s pinching a nerve, which is very very painful and weakening my arm and finger sensitivity.

I’m not here asking for advice, rather to get an idea of what’s down the road for me depending on the type of treatment I’ll end up following. I am seeing a doctor, I have an appointment tomorrow. I also had a CT scan done.

So basically if you’ve had something similar anywhere on your spine I’d appreciate to know about it. Did you recover fully? How long did it take? What treatment did you follow? Did you complement it with anything such as specialized exercises, acupuncture, massage or else?

    I have 4 bulging discs, pain was insane, found an exceptional physio, did everything prescribed and as close to pain free as u can get now going on 3 years, if I miss even 1 or two days of the rehab exercise I can feel the pain returning. Find a good physiotherapist that really knows muscoskeltal things, and do what they say people!
