Hi, 

Bulging disc can be reversed with exercise and posture and life style modifications.

  • Spine is made up of individual vertebrae stacked on top of each other. Between each vertebrae is an inter vertebral disc that provides a cushion so the vertebrae don’t rub together. The discs between the vertebrae have a gel-like material inside which helps resist compression forces on the spine. 
  • Poor posture, unbalanced tightened and weakened muscles, over straining, and joint causes a bulging disc. 
  • This bulge can sometimes compress nerves in your spine and cause pain, tingling/or burning sensation, and/or other symptoms.
  1. Eating a balanced diet with the right amount and variety of vitamins and nutrients can reduce back problems by nourishing and strengthening the bones, muscles, discs and other structures of the spine.
  2. Take proper diet and maintain healthy weight. Reduce your weight if you are overweight.Drink more water.
  3. Consume more fruits and vegetables especially seasonal fruits and vegetables and green leafy vegetables which are rich in fiber and necessary vitamins, minerals and micro macro nutrients.
  4. Avoid tea, coffee and other artificial, canned beverages.
  5. Avoid white flour, refined sugar and polished rice.
  6. Include more whole grains, nuts and dry fruits in your diet.
  7. Applying heat or cold. Cold packs are useful to relieve pain and inflammation. After reducing pain and inflammation, switch to gentle heat application / compresses or hot water bottle to give relief and comfort.
  8. Avoiding too much bed rest. Staying in bed can leads to stiff joints and weaken the spinal muscles. Take rest fe minutes then go for a short walk or do some activities. 
  9. Try to avoid weight lifting and activities that makes your pain worse. Make sure your movements are slow and controlled, especially bending forward and while lifting any objects.
  10. Avoid forward bending.
  11. Do regular exercises – back bending
  12. Do Yogasana- like ardha chakrasana, bhujangasana, jatara pravritanasana.
  13. Pranayama like Nadi shuddhi, kapahal bhati and bhramari.
  14. Applying oil and gentles massage followed by heat compress or infra red application helps to reduce pain and inflammation, lead to faster recovery.

Namasthe!

Slip discs can heal majorly with a positive diet and full rest. No one must mess with it / massage it. 

The intervertebral disc gel leaks from the inside through the hard outer ring. This is called a slipped disc or herniated disc. This causes discomfort and severe pain. This disc puts pressure on the spinal nerves and causes pain, tingling or numbness along that nerve as it acts like a short circuit coming in contact with a liquid. These majorly happen because of calcium leaching making the outer shell of the disc weak. We must allow the body to recover in which proper bending won’t be a problem and stronger bones won’t rupture too. 

If high acidic foods (not coming under category of fruits,  veggies, greens majorly) are ingested, their ph is less than normal, the stomach does not need to make it acidic to process. The pancreas won’t produce the alkaline buffers to the blood to neutralise the acidity raised by the stomach. So this acidic food in its state reaches the next few levels like the duodenum which are not geared for this ph level and bile from liver and gallbladder is called to rescue this balance. As this bile continues to be overproduced, liver becomes tired. If liver and gallbladder are not in a good working condition, enough Bile is not made available in the duodenum, and this is how acidic food reaches the intestines. As liver weakens, the body cleaning is also compromised and blood continues to carry acidic toxins that have the liver could not manage and have reached the intestines where nutrients get absorbed. When acidity in the blood goes up, the blood first uses of the alkaline buffers present in its blood plasma to bring the blood closer to an alkaline pH. Unfortunately because of the continuous supply of acidic foods to the body, the level of alkaline buffers is often very low. If the blood pH value falls below this range, then all the bodily fluids such as urine, lymphatic fluid, semen, Cerebrospinal fluids, saliva everything starts becoming acidic. This disrupts all the cellular function in the body and disturbs the balance. To prevent such a state of decline, the blood starts reducing its acidity by neutralising it with one of the most alkaline substance in the body that is calcium from the bones. So blood starts dissolving the calcium from the bones in its self to reach an ideal pH level. This is also called leaching of calcium. Blood is a supplier and also a retriever. It will choose parts of the bone where it can leach very quickly such as the ends of the bones. As it continues to do so, that part of the joint weakens that’s producing pain and inflammation. There will also be severe obstruction of blood flow, the viscosity of blood will be thicker. All these factors lead to the accumulation of toxins across the body. Know about acid-alkaline balance

Do you know about the body's acid-alkaline balance

When the pains are severe 

1) consume only fruits and juices all day as and when hungry as many days as ur on rest. If u want to have cooked, have some grainless food like steamed veggies, Channa cooked etc 

2) rest for all-day as many days as it needs 

For long term,

Start juicing in the morning till 12 PM. Start your day with half a litre of cucumber juice 

followed by fruits for next hunger. Do not have any cooked breakfast. 

In the afternoon have vegetable Salads with greens. 

Only for dinner add to wholefood plant-based cooked dinner with 30% millets and 70% vegetables cooked without any oil ( very important). 

Add yoga pranayama as much as possible and improve as health gets better. 

Remove dairy eggs meat fish absolutely from ur life on all forms. Remove sugar , fried foods , ready to eat foods from packets etc. 

Exposure to sunlight for 40 mins

हेलो,

ख़राब हाज़मा और ग़लत खान पान के वजह से शरीर इस रूप में प्रतिक्रिया कर रहा है। शरीर को नहीं अपनी आदतों को जाँचे। जब तक प्राण सकती है तब तक शरीर के अंदर का कोई भी अंग जो की निष्क्रिय हो गया वो सक्रिय हो सकता है। सही खुराक जो की शरीर की ज़रूरत है। उससे किसी भी बीमारी को ठीक किया जा सकता है।

कंधरसन, धनुरासन, भुजंग आसन, त्रिकोण आसन, सलभासन, मकरासान, शवासन करें। अनुलोम विलोम, भ्रामरी प्राणायाम करें।

Hi there,

Bulged disc/disc bulge or slip disc is also known as disc herniation which occurs when the inner portion of the disc protrudes through the outer ring of the spinal cord or vertebra due to any injury or weakness. Sometimes it is also known as disc prolapse with no symptoms or mild to moderate pain, discomfort and in severe condition, it can compress the nerve roots leading to numbness and radiating pain along the affected nerve pathway. Untreated slipped disc can lead to permanent nerve damage.

Most of the slipped disc unless very severe can be relieved with some exercises that focus on the anatomy of back muscles and bones. Make sure that you get help from your physician if you experience a severe and radiating pain.

• Often times, slip disc or prolapse comes naturally as the age progress mostly due to wear and tear of the tissues and cells. However with a healthy diet and improving the daily lifestyle habits can prevent it from worsening or aggravating. 

• Avoid lifting heavyweight. Bend your knees more often when lifting things rather than using your waist. 

• Avoid overstraining of your back muscles and spinal cord. This can happen when you sit, stand or sleep for a prolonged period in an abnormal posture. Make sure that you're following proper postural habits.

• Maintaining normal body weight is very important to avoid or prevent the herniated disc from aggravating. Overweight or obesity is one of the major factors for spinal disc prolapse. Follow proper eating hygiene habits such as following regular timing, eating healthy foods such as fruits and vegetables, seeds and nuts and keeping yourself well hydrated. 

• Prolonged sitting and working on your PC or mobile phones can cause slip disc. Make sure that you get up and stretch periodically.

• The best way to prevent slipped disc or disc hernia is to stretch and strengthen your backbones and muscles with regular exercises. Regular physical activities or exercise can also help reduce your weight by increasing your body metabolic activities and burning down more calories. 

• Place a hot fomentation bag or hot pad on your back to relieve the muscle spasm which can cause pain.
