Answer
Darrell,

Thank you for your question. Bulging discs are bad news. This will frequently happen when you lose your spinal curves which also goes hand in hand with the symptoms you are describing. An old injury to the head or neck left uncorrected and then fast forward 10-20-30 years and you will over that time lose your spinal curves and develop arthritis disc loss or bulging discs etc.

Drugs and surgery should always be a last resort and in many cases can be avoided if you start doing the right things.
