Bulging discs / back spasms - treatments that work?

Anyone else suffer from bulging discs and back spasms? What non-surgical & surgical treatments have works for you?

Currently dealing with l3-l5 bulging discs that acted up over the weekend (ended up in the ER as I tried to lay down during the episode but couldn’t get back up). Doc prescribed steroid pack , methcarbomol, pain pills, but it’s not really treating the root issues as it’s been a week and still hurting.


Five moths ago I messed up my hip/lower back pretty bad doing Romanian dead lifts with 585lbs. On the 5th rep before I was about to drive up I let my air out. Heard a nasty pop and felt it. Ever since then My lower back/hip always hurts. Sometimes it’s Sciatic sharp pain and other times a popping sensation over my outer knee. I have tried a lot to fix it and this is what I found works best for me.

* Active release/ Deep tissue massage once a week

* cupping

* CBD transdermal Pain relief creme

* chiropractic work

* Kratom

* Wrapping your knees when squatting

This is what’s i tried that didn’t work

* working out while fighting through the pain

* taking Deca

* taking MK677

* switching from compound lifts to leg extension and hamstring curls

* taking joint support supplements with insulin


Things have been slowly getting better. Just hit a DL Pr last week. Hope this helps you out OP
 
Jeff@AthleanX says that lying ham curls are bad for the low back. I've been doing ham moved that also use the glutes instead.
 
I've had two spine surgeries. First was an attempt to fix the broken vertebrae (L5), second was to repair/salvage the first fix as it did not heal correctly and ended I up with a L5-S1 fusion.
After the second surgery I continued to get way worse. I spent everything I had on a lot of quack chiros and snake oil. Broke and giving up a friend recommended a hippie yoga vegan therapist that used yoga and Pilates as a therapy modality. I was completely disabled by that point, functional for about 2 hours a day then on my back in horrid pain. Took her a couple weeks to do what the best PT's I could find could not do. I play league basketball and lift whatever the fuck I want now.
Yoga and Pilates is the bees knees for back issues. Keeps the postural strength up keeping the spine aligned and pain free. Assuming you have no structural issues, find a practitioner that understands spine issues and you should be on your way.

if you had to choose, which was more useful would it be the yoga or the pilates?
