Hello and welcome to the board, ian...You will easily find that everyone here is more than willing to help you in any way that they can. Please tell us more about your condition...Do you take any medication(s) for your condition? Have you had any x-rays or a MRI done? If so, what were the findings? Do you see a doctor regularly about your disc problem? Which disc(s) are affected? Have you seen any type of spinal specialist? Thank you, in advance.
 
here we go I had mri scan and was told I had wear and tear on vertibra
and one bulging disc.
I had faset joint injection about four week ago but as yet not helped.
The pain is around the bottom of the back of the rib cage.

It started on left but now on right but I am excercisingso pain could be due to that on right.

Realy I was just wondering if anyone had same problem and how long before it would go away its now comming up to 6 months.
 
I have a bulging disc, just found out fmo an MRI and am pretty unhappy about it. I am a mechanic and use my body often. I was told to avoid all of the activities I love like biking, and weight lifting and that I should find a new career.

The pain comes and goes with nurabness and I am starting Physio on Tuesday to see if traction will help.

Anyone else have good results with Physio Therapy?

Anyone else have to change careers because of back problems?
