Bulging Disc. A bulging disc is a common condition where one of the one of your intervertebral discs, which cushion the bones in your spine, has weakened and lost its shape. The bulging disc can press against a spinal nerve, causing chronic pain and other symptoms.
Bulging neck discs may remain asymptomatic for years and then become a herniated disc in neck upon acute stress or simply through prolonged degeneration of the outer fibrous casing. This can cause acute neck pain and possibly back pain, and radiating pain through the upper body and limbs.
